Great action scenes%2C a compelling male lead%2C complicated characters%2C enough dipping into comics lore to be rewarding but not afraid to take anything in a new direction%2C a tendency to resolve plot lines fast%2C and lastly Manu fucking Bennett is owning it as Slade Wilson.  For you Who and Torchwood fans John Barrowman is awesome in the first season.  %0D%0A%0D%0AThe first season is streaming on Netflix%2C and I think it%27s worth a watch for anybody.%0D%0A%0D%0A------%0D%0A%0D%0AOh God%2C it was me.
