The Cape TV Show Debuts Tonight
A former police officer teams up with misfits to fight crime after he is set up for a crime he did not commit. He becomes “The Cape,” who is the superhero of his son’s favorite comic book. The Cape is played by David Lyons.
Tonight’s episode is two hours, but starting next week, it will be a one hour series, airing at 9pm. The entire series has 13 episodes. I like knowing that a series has a definitive ending like that: it seems to keep the storyline more focused.

New NBC TV show The Cape makes its debut... on iPad
US broadcaster NBC has announced that its new TV drama The Cape will make its debut on iPad, in advance of its TV premiere.
The show airs from 9 January in the US, but the first episode can be watched now within the DC Comics iPad app.
"We thought engaging with DC Comics and the iPad would be a perfect way to create some pre-premiere buzz with fans who have the capacity to be ambassadors," NBC's Adam Stotsky tells Mashable.
It's the latest sign of how high iPad is looming in the priorities of US broadcasters and cable networks - see also Comcast's promise to stream live TV to tablets later this year.
NBC has sensibly chosen to target DC Comics' big userbase with its premiere, rather than launching a specific The Cape app which would have to build an audience from scratch.
