I remember The Cape being a very early, probably too early, super hero TV show.
It came out right as Marvel was starting to ramp up into the cinematic universe. When superhero media existed and was occasionally successful, but was far from the juggernaut it later became with Endgame. So The Cape was released to audiences more familiar with Saturday morning cartoons, the early Spiderman films, the Dark Knight trilogy, and the flop that was the Fantastic 4. The Cape was a lighthearted and kind of satirical take on superhero tropes, helped by not being tied to an existing IP. It got cancelled after 1 season and had a pretty unsatisfying ending.
A few years later I watched it on Netflix and it taught me an important lesson about making sure a show had a decent conclusion before watching it.
