I'm not a huge fan of police procedurals, but I've always liked what I've read from both Emma Bull and Will Shetterly.  (War for the Oaks is on my all-time favourite list)  So I went into this with an open mind, and I wasn't disappointed.The ostensible tv series is about a small department of the FBI that handles supernatural crimes.  Most of the formerly ordinary people who become infused with some sort of supernatural ability and use it to hurt others are called gammas.  Alphas are the everyday people, or more specifically, those in the department who hunt the gammas.It would make a marvelous series in the right hands, and with actual actors, not 'movie stars' or 'tv stars'.  I found the tales interesting and I am hoping to get more of the books.
