I'm really into it, 8 episodes deep and may finish up tonight. Very dark but very compelling.

I like that they don't use her super-powers as an excuse to break out special effects. She may just jump out of the frame, and you see two guys pointing at the sky going "Whoa, there she goes!" She has powers but is kind of modest about them.

It also really reminds me of a comic book in the way some of the scenes are staged. She's often walking away from someone as she says her last line to them, a very comic book thing... you see her face and the reaction of the person she's talking to.

The mind-controlling villain reminds me a little bit of the villain in Following, but a lot more understated. The guy in Following was so powerful it was just comically ridiculous. This guy has super powers and yet, is much more believable.

Are you referring to the TV show The Following?

He's also in Broadchurch.

I think the show is good, but not as good as Daredevil. I'm 6 episodes in.
