Also, Colin is in it this season, in case anyone didn't know.

So, my sister stumbled upon a show she thought she might like from Netflix - Alphas. She was wondering whether it would be a good show to watch.
I have NO idea what to tell her on this. I loved the show, but it's going to leave her hanging in the worst possible way for what I know she enjoys (she hates unfinished storylines and in this case I would be on her side). There was so much to like...at a loss here.

Frank, just be honest and say it was a good show that ended on a cliffhanger.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Edited for reference to spoilery info.
Colin was really great in the episode! It is good to have him back.

Sorry--I think that was released info, but it wouldn't be appropriate here anyway. Mostly I don't know if he shot to plan, because life is complicated at the best of times.

Good LORD. Jordan Hinson left Eureka for greener options, and now...she's in Deliverance Romeo & Juliet Breaking Bad Mutant Swamp Placid, aka Ragin' Cajun Redneck Gators.
Oh, Syfy, no.

So, I caught most of Sleepy Hollow. (My cable had problems for about 10 minutes.) I thought it was pretty good. A bit of clunky writing here and there, but the premise is interesting, and I like that they have multiple PoC. Nicole Beharie and Tom Mison are interesting, charismatic leads. I've added a season pass for it. Of course it's on FOX, so that may mean three episodes.

I enjoyed Sleepy Hollow as well. The scary vs. intriguing bits were in a good balance for me.
I was sad that the two actors I most wanted to see on-going didn't make it through the pilot.
Still, I agree that the leads are engaging.
I'll try it again.
