The Cape

Newest awesome show. Heh heh. It premiered on this last Sunday.

The show is about a cop who was framed for a crime he didn't commit (ah, cliche! but so many possibilities XD) and who goes into hiding after supposedly being killed. He becomes a superhero (well, technically not a superhero, since he doesn't have any special powers--basically, a superhero to the same extent that Batman is a superhero) and begins to fight crime and try to get his family back. (Since he can't see them without drawing suspicions back to himself.)

Enough of the plot. It has Summer Glau (River Tam from Firefly and also a smaller character in Dollhouse and in one episode of Angel and also one episode of Chuck), who is awesome. And a circus. And a family that is actually nice to each other. (Although that could very well change... I hope not, though, 'cause having good families on TV is very rare. XP)

But I guess I'm not really saying anything intelligent. It looks to be a cool show, but I can't say for sure how awesome it will be. Summer's part looks amazing, and the scheming and twists seem to be building up for something big, so I guess I have high hopes. I'm also a little addicted to superhero stories. ^_^

There are a lot of shows starting up again this month. I'm excited. =D

I absolutely love recognizing people from movies or shows! I saw Zachary Levi in a movie the other night and I see (or hear) Johnny Depp in every other movie. I saw Kaylee (from Firefly) in a Hallmark channel movie the other night.

And yes! Why are good families so rare?
