Its fun to watch a story about people with superpowers who like using them.
Unfortunately, that joy is something that Marvels TV series often forget.
When its a drag for our heroes to have powers, its also a drag to watch them.
If it sounds likeCloak & Daggeris therefore action-packed, do not be fooled its most definitely not.
For the most part it leads to jarring edits, half-baked plots, and quickly-forgotten side characters.
Joy is a very underrated trait in dramas, and its especially valuable in supernatural series.
