Any body else watching it on the SciFi channel?  Some of the contestants are so over the top, it's hilarious.

I hope Major Victory wins it- he doesn't take himself too seriously, and he seems to honestly be a nice guy. (Whereas some of those girls are all super-fake whenever Stan Lee is around, and then bitchify when he's not)

Yeah.  He's kinda flaky, but it fits him.

I had to just because I knew it'd be cheezy and wound up hooked.

I've missed it so, but I was really curious as to how you go about faking a super power and then actually trying to do something with it in real life.

Well, so far its been not so much superpowers as tests of character.  One guy got kicked of because he planned on make money off the action figures he wanted to make.

Yeah. I didn't know they were planning to kick off two people each show, so I thought Stan Lee was being a jackass about it.

But it makes sense. If you're going on this show just to become famous and rich, and not to be a superhero, then you shouldn't be there.

Of course, some of the other eliminations have been a little 'iffy.'

Although having one guy eliminated and come back as a bad guy was pretty cool. Okay, very cool.

You know, I'm kind of glad I've missed this show so far. ;)

lol, I kinda watched it last night. I'm sorry, the only good thing about that show is the Brunette with the big cans.

Yeah, the brunette with the cans got kick off. (both of them, in fact.)

The three people left are Feedback (who takes himself a little too seriously), Fat Momma (who, while a good person, doesn't really strike me as a superhero), and Major Victory (who does strike me as a good superhero).
