A boy discovers he has superpowers, uses them for selfish purposes, and makes his life far more complicated.

Straightforward and safe. It has an interesting enough premise, universe, and acting, to carry it well enough. Worth the watch.

Witches return from wherever and chase some kids who foil their plans to stay.

Big meh. It’s absolutely made for kids; it’s over-the-top pointlessness.

Americans overreact to a misunderstanding and go on a genocidal warpath across the globe and are somehow winning except for a superweapon of peace.

For some reason the Big Bad is waking up and some villagers are implicated in helping/hurting his/its/their/xur’s plans to do something to the world, or something.

This show is lacking from so many directions. It’s watchable, but irks me in ways I don’t want to sit down and think about long enough or I’ll get mad. You know what? I’m just going to start judging shows on if they have good looking women. Any, and if they are boss girls.

A disabled person is welcomed into a community which turns on him after a series of misunderstandings.
