Anyone bother? Is it any good?
All the previews I've seen looked insanely bad, strong cast notwithstanding. I wasn't going to bother, figuring it was another "let's jump on the Heroes bandwagon even though the show will debut a year or so after Heroes is canceled!" series like Whatever The Name Is Family. (I want to say "Modern Family," but I know it's not that.)
And I figured if it was worth watching, someone would tell me and it'd be re-run a few million times. I'm not holding my breath, but did any of you see it?

Re: The Cape?
I watched it. It wasn't anything spectacular or groundbreaking, but it was decent. I laughed in a few places and the supporting cast, particularly David Keith and his band of Circus Theives, are entertaining. The story follows pretty standard tropes, with the gal reporter(blogger, its 2011 after all) sidekick, the maniacal uber villain, the gimmick thug villains (Vinnie Jones was a hoot. "The yellow brick road is that way." ) etc etc.
I fucking hated Heroes, so this is automatically better.

Re: The Cape?
I watched a few minutes just to get a fix of Keith David, then I turned it off.
