View Full Version : Heroes
Anyone interested in this? I sort of think it could be good - the idea of taking a superhero seriously was interestingly laid out by Shyamalan in Unbreakable - but I wonder if they can really pull it off without becoming cheezy? the reviews have been good- which shocked me. . . but i guess we'll wait and find out

The advertisements definitely have me interested. I just hope I'm not disappointed, as usual.
i have refused to watch LOST because while it seems totally addictive, i wanted to have some sense that there would be some payoff at the end. . . i've been so disappointed in the past by tv dramas, etc.

well, with 4400's future up in the air, I guess we need a new "ordinary people get powers" show

I said the same thing when I first saw the previews.
Might be nice to see a show about positive stuff for a change.

It's very good. If nothing else, Jordan Collier is one of my favorite characters on TV right now.
Season 2 is on DVD as well
cool - as soon as i'm done with six feet under (my current tv-on-dvd obsession) i'll check it out

**slightly spoiler-ish**
I am really enjoying the show...of course here in AUST, the damn thing hasn't even been announced, but when I saw it advertised in a comic I downloaded, I decided to grab some eps.
Nicely done show...I'd consider actually buying it on dvd...where usually I wouldn't bother with something I've downloaded.
I love the quality, the musical scoring, everything...and I like that it's got the dark feel of a vertigo kind of comic. What's the actual rating on it over there? Gotta love the gory kills that have been happening.
I like that the bad guys have yet to be revealed, eg...er...whoever did that thing in that house in ep 2, that should be really interesting...and it was cool that it went further into the double identity chick, but leaves me wondering if in the grand scheme of the show, is she gonna end up being both hero AND villain, or something more along the lines of the punisher/ghost rider, kills, but only bad guys? The failed detective seems pretty cool, I like where theyre going with that...I'm really liking how theyre bringing everything together gradually, it doesn't feel rushed.
Oh, and the comic book thing with the asian guy was a fucking trip...ha, he makes me laugh.
I hope they continue the series past the point of uh...the "foward-in-time" premonition disaster-type thing...but I think if they handle it well enough, they won't neccessarily have to.
Probably my most anticipated show right now.
