TV Review: The Gifted S1 E12 eXtraction
May 12, 2018When last we met the Struckers were reeling from the children being kidnapped and forced to perform as lab monkeys for Dr. Campbell (who used the data he gathered to develop his own way to fuse mutant powers to enhance his Hound program, the program where he brainwashes mutants into hunting down and killing or […]
TV Review: The Gifted S1 E10 eXploited
March 3, 2018Argh argh argh! I am so glad I’m binge watching this and not watching it live. The last episode ended on a downer, but this one made me want more right away!

TV Review: The Gifted S1 E9 outfoX
February 24, 2018We are definitely building to something big here.

TV Review: The Gifted S1E7 eXtreme Measures
February 3, 2018One of my favorite episodes so far. Thunderbird starts by hunting down Blink, feeling she is unsafe with the SS crackdown on mutants.

Tv Review: The Gifted S1 E4 EXit Strategy
January 13, 2018After finally getting a clue and sacrificing himself to protect a mother and child, Reed is in SS “protective” custody with, surprise, surprise, Polaris. Meanwhile, desperate to free Polaris, Eclipse goes back to the cartel he used to work for.(I’m sure that will work out great.) Blink begins to suspect that Dreamer implanted false memories […]
TV Review: The Gifted S1 E3- eXodus
December 24, 2017*From here on out I might be including spoilers. Reader beware. In our last episode Alpha Dad Reed Strucker struck a deal with Sentinel Services (mutant hunters) to betray the identities of the member of the Mutant Underground (and the location of their secret headquarters) in exchange for the safety of his family. Because a […]
