CW description: In the New Mexico desert, scientist Vera Ivanov watches in fascination as a mysterious object plummets to Earth and explodes, sending out a shock wave that briefly stops her heart. But Vera isn't the only one affected: she's instantly connected to four other strangers, who also collapse only to miraculously come back to life hours later. This group of strangers might be the only hope for preventing the impending Rapture…or causing it.
Zap2It description: The Messengers Synopsis: When a mysterious object falls to Earth in a blinding flash, it sends out a shockwave that knocks scientist Vera Ivanov unconscious.

And all of them awake with unexplained powers.

We have met all of the characters, except one whom Grace said will appear later. I think that character will also be an angel. We can see their white translucent wings reflected in mirrors. They can see them, but I do not know if regular people will see the wings.
The four horsemen will also play a part in the series. Satan is already there. He was cast from heaven again and soared to earth like a meteor. He is very handsome, very murderous and very evil.

The angels' gifts/powers are being revealed. Some of the powers are more painful than others. They are to use their powers to stop armageddon. The devil walks among them and tempts them to do things that will corrupt them and that, in turn, will break a seal.
This week, they have narrowed down to two people who might be the Horseman of War.
We saw more glimpses of their personal lives. None of them seemed happy or satisfied in their original lives, but I have not seen Rose's background yet.
Rose is the one who understands their mission and she can understand all languages.
Vera can astral project, but the down side is her body is left in a lifeless state until she returns to it.
Raul can read minds, but it gives him pain. Maybe he will learn to control that.
Joshua is an evangelist who has visions. The visions cause him to have seizures. I think he would trade his gift for one of the others.
Peter, the teenager, is good with computers, but I have not noticed an angelic gift. He was arrested at the end of the episode.

Vera reminds me alot of Emma Swan. No, I don't like her either. I really like Joshua and Peter. Oh...Peter's gift is incredible strength, Anti. Pay attention!!!  This show has potential, but I don't think it will get a second season. |

I do not like Vera either.
I remember now; super strength is how Peter defeated the bully who bothered him. Raul is pretty strong and a good fighter, but I guess Peter's strength will come in handy somewhere down the line.

Oh my God...remember when Joshua's father revealed that HE was the father of the baby Joshua's wife was carrying?! Wow. That was so sad. Loved it when Peter killed that bully. I HATE bullies.  I'm not impressed with "Satan." I suppose I'm spoiled after watching Mark Pellegrino on SPN!  |

The Satan is handsome, but rather passionless. He needs something more - more charisma? more angst? more danger? Something!
Joshua's father was something special. That was the most shocking moment of the series.
I like the pretty angel wings.
The rocks created by Satan's landing have the power to regenerate life.

Vera- I thought they said somewhere that her ability is called soul walking but i thought it was astral projection at first too. I watched the premiere twice. The first time myself and it was so good i watched it again with my mom. Then we watched the next 2 episodes. Still have one to go but i'm really enjoying what i've seen so far. |

Yes, I remember Rose called it soul walking.
Also, Erin can heal. It seems there is some guideline for when their gifts will work.Except, it does seem that Rose's ability to translate is always available.
The woman who pushes the cart is keeping score and I wonder if she will join the group or remain aloof.
In every supernatural show I watch, the seals get broken faster than a snowball would melt in hell. The good guys need to up their game.

I am confused about what going on in this past episode.
Joshua’s visions showed both the politician and the prime minister, but the group did not know which one was the Horseman of War. Raul needed to get close to them and hope their thoughts would reveal what they were planning. Vera’s soul walking let her overhear an incriminating conversation that revealed the politician planned to raise her glass and sip from it, which would be the signal to shoot the prime minister. Meanwhile, The Man (devil) pretended to be Peter’s lawyer and filled his head with thoughts of worthlessness so that Peter would become suicidal. Rose convinced Peter he was needed at the summit to help prevent the assassination. Then Peter broke his chains and escaped and arrived at the summit in time to help. He used his strength to hit a wall hard enough to throw the sniper off balance so the shot would miss its intended target. In spite of the heroes’ efforts, the seal was still broken because The Man was successful in tempting the politician to become corrupt. She is now the Horseman of War. I hope this helps. (I wrote this from memory and I am not certain the guy’s title was actually “Prime Minister”.) |

Angel, I believe that he was in fact the prime minister. Of what country idk. Jeff, i too was confused... After that politician (i'm drawing a blank on her name) got shot and the seal breaks, it showed her with wings and red eyes. Are we to assume that all of the horsemen will appear like that? Yes, I remember Rose called it soul walking. Also, Erin can heal. It seems there is some guideline for when their gifts will work.Except, it does seem that Rose's ability to translate is always available. The woman who pushes the cart is keeping score and I wonder if she will join the group or remain aloof. In every supernatural show I watch, the seals get broken faster than a snowball would melt in hell. The good guys need to up their game. Vera seemed to think that it was because of "urgency" but i still think it would be cool if they worked from their emotions like they did on Charmed. I am just wondering how she knows about them... Joshua has visions so i don't think they'd have 2 angels with visions. |

I firmly believe that Joshua's father is a Horseman. I also believe that the gray haired woman is an Archangel...
Satan is dull. I don't know if it's because of the actor or the writing.

It would be very interesting if the gray haired woman is an archangel and hanging around to keep tabs on the battle.
The father seems more and more evil. He is probably not Pestilence, but he could be Famine.

Eye in the Sky (5-15-15) was excellent. My favorite scenes were: Peter burst into the bathroom and saw Raul’s niece naked. He was so embarrassed, it was downright funny. When Peter held Ronnie’s car so he could not speed off with Amy, that was pretty good. Then, oh no, Ronnie was going to shoot Peter, but Raul’s niece shot Ronnie. Amy wept and wailed because her daddy was hurt so mommy healed him with her gift. Raul’s niece looked stunned and The Man looked extremely frustrated. Their focus is on identifying the Horseman Pestilence. They have narrowed it to a computer virus whose logo said “Welcome to Abaddon.” I recognize that name because Abaddon is the name of one of the most powerful demons on Supernatural. Eta: The shape shifter does not seem like she is working with the good angels. I am ready to dislike her. ![]()

That would be something if it turns out Joshua's father is. Considering all the followers he has and how religious he is, nobody would suspect him. Satan is bland... I think it's a bit of both. Perhaps if they showed him use his powers or had him do something besides just talking to ppl that might help? Angel, going by the actions and what was shown of angel #7 (since we don't have her name yet ![]() ) i don't fully trust her either. Although she does have a very cool power. |

All Satan does is smirk...and try to look menacing. The actor who portrays him is terrible. I'm in LOVE with Josh. He's soooo damn cute!!!!! I REALLY DON'T LIKE THE BLOND CHICK. SHE'S AS BAD AS EMMA SWAN. |

Satan is not at all scary. Maybe it is time for him to get angry and show us his power.
Aeryn would corrupt Josh and make him forget his cheating wife. Lol

When the Asian girl was fighting Raoul, and Rose said "Stop, she's one of us." Then we saw the Asian girl had wings...but Raoul and Rose DIDN'T. What the hell?! Continuity error? Hmmm. |

I was a little annoyed at that mirror scene because it did not make sense. She needed to see their wings too.

Metamorphosis – During a united search for the Second Horseman of the Apocalypse, Vera and Alan continue their investigation into the genesis stone’s secrets; Erin learns the price of her gift.
The episode held my interest. The new angel had a shady past and she is not trying to clean up her act even though she knows she is now an angel. She worked with the others to locate Pestilence for a little while but only to achieve information on how to replenish her bank account.
Apparently there is no logic involved in vengeance. A computer genius is angry that a corporation refused to cover his mother’s cancer treatment. In retaliation, he plans to harm the organization by causing the death of hundreds of its clients. If he commits that sin, he will become the Horseman Pestilence.
When Vera and Alan tracked a truck that was used to carry her genesis stone, they arrived at a secret government compound. I was surprised when an order was given to kill them. Vera spirit walked and learned that the Horseman of War took ownership of the crater. When Vera returned to her body, the sliver of the stone she wears around her neck was glowing.
There are uncomfortable consequences when some of the angels use their gifts, even when they cannot control when the gift activates. Vera can die if she does not return to her body within six minutes. Erin has a hematoma that grows when she heals someone.
