It’s frustrating because there are numerous instances of this kind of story already. While programs like Poltergeist Legacy successfully explored similar territory and achieved a level of entertainment and ingenuity comparable to Kolchak, Alphas doesn't bring anything fresh to the idea. Many other shows have at least attempted to expand upon it in some way. It’s not necessarily unenjoyable, but it simply doesn’t offer any new perspective on something that’s been done repeatedly before.
