The Gifted: 3 X 1
January 1, 2018 8:19 PM - Season 1, Episode 11 - Subscribe
As tensions heat up among the team at Mutant HQ, no one knows who they can trust. Fearing for his family's safety, Reed rethinks their future at the compound. Meanwhile, Dr. Campbell proposes improved program to Jace that could change everything.
Yeah, I'm still enjoying this. I feel like it properly captures the feel I want from an X-Men property very well, despite missteps and limitations of the format.
As for this episode in particular:
The Cuckoos are fantastic frenemies. I love 'em. They're creepy and awful while still making a pretty compelling offer - the Mutant Underground really is screwed either way at this point.
Not sure about the dude - he's credited as 'William.' I'm not really an X-pert, so dunno if Sebastian Shaw ever used that alias or crushed coal into diamonds, although I suspect he was of the correct general power level to do so.

Do we know who the big bad hellfire club guy is? Is it Sebastian Shaw? Can Shaw crush coal into diamonds?
I'm firmly in the fan camp on this show. I know it's flawed, etc., it's still better than all other X-franchises I've watched on any size of screen.
