Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Lawbolisted Powerful
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
subhdeep-07439 A very good watch. I liked it. Some superhero genres TV series. But concentration was more on it's character development and various complex emotional complexity which was impressive
peterjdickinson I wrote the following and I was wrong."There's something seriously wrong with the moral framework of this show. The story revolves around a sexual assault that could have been worse and maintains a focus on it as the worst thing that has ever happened anywhere in the world ever. Far more cataclysmic things happen but as they happen to people who aren't female they are ignored mostly. I have no idea what the intended message of this show was but the one that comes across is pretty horrible. The central character of 'Henry' is deeply unlikable who treats nearly everyone terribly including a terminally ill old woman she doesn't know from Adam. I know she had the most terrible thing that has ever happened to anyone assuming you are the most sheltered person to have lived happen to her but she's a pretty terrible person."What I wrote was wrong. Impulse has all of the faults I pointed out but what I wrote was wrong. Impulse is one of the most poorly written and morally reprehensible shows ever produced. It exists solely as a lunatic expression of victim-hood and it is utterly devoid of humanity and understanding. It elevates trivial annoyance of a teen's wandering hand above the death of a child or the end of a long and lonely life. It panders to a sick two dimensional teenage view of life and it is worthy of nothing but contempt. This is one of the most appalling shows ever made and it depends upon the naivety of young viewers with an experiential deficit. This is not just bad; it is deeply insulting and morally barren. It is possible to have a hateful character as an anti-hero but this steaming pile serves up vileness as heroism. It doesn't work and it shouldn't.
Name-Namerson I'm all for a teenage drama with teleportation powers. However, season 1 is 10 episodes of very little. The main plot involves a girl called Henri who is an unlikable protagonist She is almost raped by an unlikable jock (who is more likeable than the lead) and slowly becomes friends with her unlikeable step sister. The only character who I liked was Henri's friend with Aspergers, Townes. In the end, we see a bunch of interactions. Very little movement forward in terms of story and the season finishing with a rather dull thud of nothingness with only a cliffhanger which only mildly wants you to see the next episode. There's a subplot which has something to do with a bloke trying to track down and kill other jumpers which is how the show kicks off, but then goes nowhere. Ultimately, season 1 could have been 2-3 episodes at most, stretched out to 10 episodes of boring teenage angst with an unlikeable, selfish and overall awful protagonist.
laurenschung Did Youtube produce this? Great work! No plot holes so far, did not insult my intelligence! Whenever i found myself wanting to catch episodes one after another...this hence is a great show! Those who gave it low ratings must be miserable...
