The Gifted is great, mostly because it's one of the best adaptations of the "mutants are hated, feared, and hunted" aspect of X-Men. There's no safety behind the walls of the Xavier Institute, no organized team with high-tech resources to fall on, and a focus on characters who can't solve things all on their own (IE Magneto, Professor X, and the like). While there's a lot of focus on the Strucker family (focal point/everyman canon foreigners), the overall plot and characters are compelling enough to keep you watching.

And despite statements to the contrary, The Gifted, like Legion, is set in a different continuity from the films.

Nix noted that the film X-Men: Days of Future Past established multiple, different timelines or "streams" in the X-Men universe, and that the series would take advantage of those to avoid the films and comics and instead do "our own thing". He explained that in the series' "stream", the X-Men have disappeared, soon adding that the series would not be "driving" the movies or vice versa"

I'm wondering if Blink's exposure on the show is one of the reasons Marvel's bringing back the Exiles comic. Here's hoping that leads to a Blink ML!
