CBS, clearly itching with jealousy over the popularity of the NBC mutant-teen drama HEROES, has begun development of their own teen drama involving special teen eye-candy.
SCIONS chronicles the lives of ten 'random' teens brought together from around the globe (but mostly from America, because apparently the American public can't stand them no subtitles) who have the desperate duty to...
wait for it... Save The World.
These 10 SCIONS are the descendants of great minds of the past - Shelly Kipling, (heir of Rudyard Kipling, it seems), Ellie Churchill, Jake Einstein, Giorgetta Da Vinci, Pheobe Edison, Yannis Socrates, and four more yet to be revealed.

"We've put our own twist on it," says CBS. "Our Einstein is a beat poet and horrible at math! They're young people still trying to discover themselves."
While they have no mutant powers, the SCIONS all share a genetic history of genius, and are brought together as a first-of-its-kind think-tank to prevent an Extinction Level Event which is about to devastate the planet.
Oooh! Can't wait not to watch it.

*And yet, I did.
Yup, because when a killer asteroid is on its way to earth, I want Einstein's beatnik grandson on the case. Forget all those people at NASA.
