Ep 4 was better. Can't believe they put Sage in it of all people.

I wasn't sure if they'd end up actually solidly tying the Strucker family to the von Strucker family.  I suspected that's what they were hinting at, but Wolfgang von Strucker is a Captain America character that's already been included in the MCU.  And yet, there it was last night.  Now I really wonder what Marvel got out of Fox in that tradeoff.

The Strucker twins were mutants so they might've been included in the package deal with the X-men or whatever deal they worked out on the Maximoffs. Or maybe they were too minor for Marvel to care. Or maybe the Spidey deal will have them being buddy buddy from here on out. Who knows.

Not sure which is weirder, that they put a Cuckoo in the show, that they only put in one, or that they picked one of the dead ones.

Minor nit:  Spidier-Man was Sony, not Fox.

Sorta weird that they only use one, but maybe future development? As for a dead one, Esme is the only interesting Cuckoo.

Did that episode turned into Heroes 2.0?

Idk what to think anymore. I like the Cuckoos and Hellfire club showing up and the last couple eps have been more interesting. On the other hand the whole emphasis on combined powers is a bit silly.

Also Xmen: treating "homo sapiens" like an English plural since 1963!

I thought running with the idea of combined powers was pretty ingenious.

Also loving the Cuckoos, and I'm pretty surprised by this, because I hate them in the comics.

Kinda "meh" about the Hellfire Club. I'm just not impressed by what I see so far. I hope this changes.

I think Skyler Samuels delivery and smirk manages to make a mundane character interesting.
