ABC's Desperate Housewives with Vampires aka The Gates aired it's season finale this Sunday. To be honest, I didn't follow the series too closely except for looking for feats of superstrength and the like, so I can't really say if the show was any good.
Anyway, there were only two short superhuman moments, one in episode 9 IIRC, the other in the final episode.
In episode 9 the lovely Katheryn Winnick played a vampire who's out for revenge. In one scene she confronts her former lover who turned her into a vampire and kills him after a short, but sweet fight. She catches a sword with her hands during the fight and breaks off the tip; shortly after she lifts the guy by the collar and carries him to the wall where he is impaled by some kind of wooden stick.
In the final episode a bunch of vampires fought each other, however, only the very first few seconds of the fight were shown, the rest of the actual fighting occured off-screen. During these first few seconds Rhona Mitra grabs another female vamp and throws her several feet through the air onto the windshield of a nearby car. (No caps for this one yet.)
That was about it, which isn't really all that much unfortunately, unless I missed something. Thinking about it, it's still more than True Blood has delivered so far. Let's see if The Gates will get a second season ...
