    TV: Heroes

    Just watched the premier of Heroes. I stumbled on to this show completely by accident about 80 seconds before it started, and i have to say im loving it. Its like X-men in real life, but more subtle. The first episode reminded me of Surface, i guess cuz of the indian doctor (evolutionary biologist or something?), and the mysterious man with the glasses. He seems to be a a governmnt agent or something, but its too early to say.

    What's really intresting is the way all these people seem to be connected, like the cheerleader and the guy with the glasses, or the artist and the male nurse (and ofcourse, the nurse and the indian doctor). Also, it seems that the second episode is going to feature some catastrophic event, which is pretty intresting to see this early one.

    Anyway, heres the official site for those who are intrested. And for those who are lazy, the show is basically about a handful of individuals who notice they have certain abilities (being able to fly, controlling space/time, invulnerability, seeing the future etc), and its implied that these individuals are the next step in human evolution. Like i said, its sorta like x-men, in real life.

    So, who else saw the show, and what were your impressions. Im especiall intrested to know what you guys think of that stripper mom. A very intresting power indeed.

    I was expecting much better, the pilot itself didn't say much to me. As of now, I'll preffer watching Vanished or Runaway with all it's cheesiness. Hopefully the execution in the coming episodes improves substantially.

    I missed the premiere due to feeling sick and falling asleep before. I am currently looking for a download of it.

    I'm official.

    Well I only saw like the last 15 min. of this(didn't bother watching the encore tonight), and it looked like the only interesting person to watch is the girl with the healing factor.

    R.I.P Captain America.

    I agree that this show is one of the best so far. I like the ability of Hiro, and I wouldn't mind having that.

    A nice episode, I wonder if DL is dead because that takes away some of the future from the one we saw with Sylar having his power, although it's a possibility that there is someone else who can do it.

    Sylar is awesome yet again! I hope he is around for a long time to come.

    Linderman could've helped alot of people with his power, I loved the way he died though.

    That's also how I took it, it's interesting as it also may be why that girl molly has the ability to find anyone she's looking for.

    Only one part of that is really surprising (and not in a good way).

    My prediction for season 2: Sylar dies very early on, probably in his first appearence getting killed by the new Big Bad. Sylar is too ridiculously powerful to stay alive for another confrontation with the heroes and it's unlikely season 2's Big Bad is going to be teaming up with him.

    I root for that prediction as well, but in press conferences Tim Kring made it very clear that he really loved Sylar's character (I don't know why =P) so I think it's more likely that the S2 Big Bad will use Sylar as some kind of lackey.

    A couple of days ago Kristen Bell (lead of Veronica Mars) was added to the show. Apparently she'll be a guest star for a couple of episodes... I hope she stays long enough to be promoted to a full cast member, she's great and hot.

    Agree. I wasn't that big fan of Veronica Mars, but I watched some episodes. Kristen is a pretty good actor and she is hot

    You have to see her episodes on Deadwood, she was awesome.

    She always reminded me of a cheap knock of of Chloe on Smallville, that she is a great actress. I love her!

    assertnfailure (7:40:03 PM): dude....your posts are a bunch of nonsense

    I'll try that. Anyways I heard that Sylar (Zachary Quinto) isn't going to appear that much next season, cause he is shooting the next Star Trek movie. He's playing Spock.

    Monday September 24, 2007. www.tv.com is your friend, but it bares bad news often like how your show is canceled and what not, makes me cry sometimes.

    Has Heroes been airing reruns through the summer? Just wondering why Heroes is going to air something tonight, if the season premiere is the 24th as it has been announced everywhere.

    Downloaded the batch a couple of days ago, cool series, I personally like future Hiro with the fluent English, just shows how good of an actor he is... Syler's geetin old and the moment I thought he did, Dolly came with the info that there's another person much worse then Syler is...

    *And he can see her...*

    @ Munsu: They'd have to be reruns, I get them here to. Like Foomanchew24 says, season 2 airs on the 24th this month.

    Now... we can click as warriors... button to button, it is the basis of all internet.
