So you're saying Medusa doesn't have super powers?

I'm not sure what he is saying there.
AH oh Mary Jane Watson got ya.
Oh! THAT redhead. I had trouble figuring out which one we were discussing since there's more than few in Marvel...
Joel,
She's probably in contention. I mean let's not forget the slightly powered but still mostly human, Patricia Walker aka Patsy Walker aka Hellcat.

And Black Widow's actually got black hair, as of her original appearances, she just dyed it red later.
DC had a redhead with prehensile hair called Spider-Girl a year or two (1963-64) before Medusa (1965), so it's apparently one of those memes that went around.
Regardless! Patsy only a blonde on TV. (Not that I object to Rachael Taylor's acting.)

No No No I despise Ramsey far far too much.

But that seems to be the only reason. The "hey sorry, your genetics aren't up to snuff and you're not a royal. Off to the mines with you" society needs to go. Even if that is with Ramsey Maximus.
Yeah I thought he had like mind control or something like that. Maybe his research during the series will give it to him somehow.
Yeah I think that is the point of his whole relationship with that scientist.
Nah. He's currently without powers. But perhaps a second shot of Terrigenesis will fix it...sort of.
What were those weird guys he used to order around in the comics I think they were like mindless slaves or something?
Alpha Primates, Vid. Hive accidentally made them when he turned those Watchdogs in attempt to make them Inhuman.
Oh yeah! forgot about that season!
Ok. So I have been trying to stay positive about the series, but that last episode was so poorly written. why would you not send your entire team to face a large group of your enemies. of course someone is going to die when you send 2 to fight an army. additionally A piece of thin waffer board type stuff fel on his head and your telling me he died or was knocked out from it? I mean it didn't even hit him squarely on the head looked more like the shoulder. AND IT LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE IN A TENT MOSTLY. Also why would he have done the stomp in the first place. Gorgon is apparently a complete idiot. Also why tie his hands if he can just open his mask anyways? hog tie him!
Told ya. This series man...Not worth it.

Or at the very least don't tie his hands in front of him so he can get to the mask. Dumb on multiple levels.
So, 11/3 episode. Well, it was full of more interesting things than the last several episodes, that is for sure.
Like ...
That entire Black Bolt/Medusa argument was just bad drama for no reason. Husbands and wives keep secrets sometimes. Kings more so. If Maximus overacts much harder he is going to tear a hole in time and space.
At least Auren seems to be a little more humanized by her experiences. One more episode until .. something.
I think you mean the end of this travesty, Knight...

Yeah, this was a mess all around. It seems like they all spontaneously became different characters (without an ounce of sense between them) when they got back together. Except younger sister, who basically stopped existing.
But Medusa's spontaneous moral navel gazing was just weird. I have no idea where it came from, or why.

I feel like the Medusa and Black Bolt from the show are opposites of their comic book counterparts, with her being more of an idealist and him being more of a pragmatic sort (unlike the comics, where he's the one who decided to free the Alpha Primitives, and she's generally been portrayed as more hard and practical).
And, since my rings of contrariness are acting up bigtime, I like the TV show version of Medusa better than the comic-book version. I kind of like the acting for Karnak, as well, although the actor could possibly have done like, *a* crunch to prepare for the role (or at least wear a girdle when he's got a shirt on, so I don't see tummy bulge from the world's best Inhuman athlete)? :)
Really? I mean I can understand why you like the CHARACTER but not sure I'm for this particular Medusa, especially with her hair NOT being as active as it should be.

Except... she wasn't portrayed that way for most of the episodes- she's been Queen Haughty and Rude (to put it politely) to the Car/Computer Servant, demonstrating little sense she even thinks of others as people.
There are exceptions when she mentions her banished/dead parents, but most of the time she seemed quite content with the idea that The Family was the sum total of her existence- the inherent inequalities of their moon city didn't seem to impact her at all.*

Unlike Earth, which is protected by its magnetic field, the Moon has been bombarded with large quantities of Helium-3 by the solar wind. It is thought that this isotope could provide safer nuclear energy in a fusion reactor, since it is not radioactive and would not produce dangerous waste products.
So slight detail that has been bothering me. Why can't they make boots to make his feet look like hoofs? Would that really of cost that much?

In the first show they had hooves on him I thought... didn't that space lady mention a 'hoof' hitting their lunar drone? did something happen so that he has feet now? now that you mention it, the last few shows I watch seem to show him in regular footwear... I'm confused...
They talk about him having hooves but I when they show his feet he is wearing huge boots. I mean is he wearing the boots over the hooves to blend in? maybe but I would of liked to see the hooves at least once.

IIRC, you see the hooves briefly in one of the first two episodes, just before he wades into the ocean. A review I read also mentioned his disappearing hooves.
I don’t think he’s supposed to have feet now, or that he disguised his feet—I think the show just didn’t have money for foot prostheses/CG, or didn’t care enough, so they didn’t bother keeping his hooves around past the first episodes.
And I wonder why this got cancelled practically before it came out...

They 'gave up' on Gorgon's hooves?!?! WTF?!?
Your avatars picture sums up my feelings about it.

There's going to be a deleted scene on the blue-ray of Maximus chaining him down and shaving off his hooves.
Thats not funny.. ok maybe a little.
SO what, now the Inhumans are channeling Saw?

This sort of thing just goes to show the ruling class's idiocy.
Oh look, you have a potential Seer? I know, we should have this guy who can see glimpses of the future with no physical augmentations go work in the mines!
You know, instead of, say, the fusion power plant where he can touch each coworker on the way in to work and find out if the place might undergo a meltdown or something due to some missed detail.
