TV Review: The Tomorrow People Pilot

Of course, I love anything that ends in Amell, so it’s no surprise that this show captured me for that reason alone.  Right from the start I knew it would be in the same vein as X-Men or Heroes, which isn’t a bad thing.  Honestly, I wasn’t sure how deep of a show it would be.  Whether or not it would be something I’d want to dig my mind into every Wednesday night.  Well, I’m glad to say this was a strong pilot (with a twist at the end) that has made me a fan already.  Unless the next few episodes go downhill, I’ll be watching every week.  4 out of 5 stars.

(6) TV Preview: The Tomorrow People

Two words: Robbie Amell.  That’s right, Stephen Amell’s younger cousin.  And here’s a pic of him so you can soak in the new… um… talent coming to the CW Wednesday Nights after Arrow (I think I’m going to be calling Wednesday Amell night…).

 

Moving away from the best gene pool since the Hemsworth’s, here’s the description of the show taken from IMDB:

The story of several young people from around the world who represent the next stage in human evolution, possessing special powers, including the ability to teleport and communicate with each other telepathically. Together they work to defeat the forces of evil.

And here’s the trailer:

And a clip:



Excited yet?

And, my favorite character actor of all time, Mark Pellegrino, is in it!  (Bouncing up and down).  He’s actually the original reason I got interested in this show.

It looks awesome.  Who else is excited for Amell Night?
