8. Marvel’s Runaways
Marvel’s Runaways could quickly be compared to Marvel’s Cloak and Dagger due to the similar target audience. However, the jump in quality from Cloak and Dagger to The Runaway’s is huge. From the acting to the pacing of the narrative, Marvel’s The Runaways is a completely engaging show with a cast of characters that you will be hard pressed to not relate to in some way.
The show follows six teens who discover that their parents are a part of a cult of super-villains called Pride. As the season progresses, Alex, Nico, Gert, Chase, Karolina, and Molly begin to unravel the mystery of this secret society, all the while discovering abilities and talents of their own that rival their parents.Runaways gives you ample time to not only bond with each of the six teens, but you get significant time with each set of parents. The internal strife within Pride is what propels a lot of the narrative forward. By the season’s end The Runaways has you on the edge of your seat, waiting for the new season to hit this fall.
