A grocery store clerk receives a mysterious call that puts him into a trance and sends him to a rooftop to shoot a Federal witness... through an air vent a block away. The government calls in Dr. Leigh Rosen and his team of "Alphas," people with special neurological abilities, to locate the killer.

A lot of potential, but also a solid pilot. The nice thing is that each character has clear strengths and weaknesses. There are some fun, kind of unique for stories like this, type powers, but they all have downsides. This means extra potential for good storytelling, with stronger characters than most shows like this tend to have.
The show felt like it had a little more of a budget than recent SyFy shows have had. The powers don't require a lot of effects, but they play out really nicely. It seems that leaves plenty of money to spend on making the show feel really high end, with an added bonus of still selling fun powers, to the viewing audience.
It looks like, based on first episode ratings and feedback, that it will be a likely renewal. It is worth checking out. I liked the pilot and it probably has more potential than any of the recent SyFy shows.
looks good at first glance
has potential but that depends on the other episodes
Not bad, it has potential.
I'm going to watch the next one also
first impressions?
