    The newspapers in Season 1, written in Google Translate Polish, listed crimes against humanity as part of their laundry list of crimes, so they're Nazis or equally bad terrorists.

    Could be pretty awesome, wonder how they'll approach the whole incest angle

    To be fair, Fenris are nazis and are terrible, so no great need to soft sell them..

    Yeah in the comics they are. But this show has also changed Hellfire Club to be way more gray to the point of pretty much heroic.

    And if Andy and Lauren were to become a new incarnation of them I don't think we can have them be insanely awful like in the comics

    There was Andy's comment about "that's the human version of events" or whatever concerning what was written about them.

    Just because it's listed somewhere doesn't necessarily make it 100% true. The USA government consider the Mutant Underground "terrorists". Do we in the audience...?

    They've killed people while understandable the Hellfire Club is not heroic.

    Considering how cartoonishly evil the government is in The Gifted, the HFC looks a lot better by comparison. They're the best of a bunch of bad options.

    the gifted instagram used to promote the show with the cast saying join the conversation with the hashtag #thegifted in every episode on instagram!( like here https://www.instagram.com/p/Bda9_w6FOnZ/ ), now they never do that it could really work to have more audience like in season 1

    Yeah some say that foreshadows either Andy or Lauren dying and then the other one "carries on the von Strucker legacy" but alone

    I guess if that happens I would rather it be Lauren who lives but my real preference is them as a duo and just re-interpreted in a more nuanced way ethically but still considered "unacceptable" by the boring dopes, I mean Heroes, of the Underground

    4 more eps to go, wherein hopefully the so far mostly disappointing S2, can end on a high note.
