Just an FYI, "The Gifted" is not all that great, but watchable. Right now it's all "Run Mutants Run", and the stories basically write themselves. I was a fan of the whole "mutant registration act" comic storyline, so this is in my wheel house. Can't put my finger on what's missing.
There's an underlying lack of confidence in the show, so they try and squeeze in as much action as possible. Everything rushes to the next action scene. Wish this had been on a channel like FX where it could get a slow-burn and build an audience.
Edit: Not officially MCU, but I think they mentioned the X Men in it once and there's a lot of "Sentinel" chatter
