London, 1899. Three years after an inexplicable event suddenly equips them with extraordinary abilities, Amalia True and Penance Adair work to protect their kind from widespread, deepening antipathy. Meanwhile, police inspector Frank Mundi investigates a string of murders at the hands of a reportedly Touched and highly dangerous serial killer named Maladie.
Comments
Looks promising. I'm not really convinced by the victorian/steampunk setting, but the production is definitely excellent as expected from HBO.
The pacing was weird though, I hope it's just because they wanted to introduce everyone (Maladie was great) and it'll improve in the next episodes.
SHOW SPOILER I didn't like the spaceship at the end that gave everyone its abilities. It looked kinda victorian/steampunky, so I hope there won't be any aliens.
