Heroes!!!

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

It finally hits bog standard tv this Wednesday, 9pm, BBC2! :D

Anyone looking forward to it!?!?!

You should. I've seen all the 1st series & its quite probably the greatest thing I've ever seen on tv.

For those unaware, watch it. You'll only be left out of every social conversation for the next 6 months if you don't. :wink:

My little caption below will make a lot of sense very soon...

Season was excellent but I have yet to watch the last four episodes. It slows a while before Chris' introduction ;)

I've got a feeling this is something right up your street. And not in a pervy way either!

Even I loved it and I'm not a geek :D

Only seen a couple of episodes but aren't parts of it a bit graphic (in a TV context, at least).

"Lost" for me just draged on and on and on each episode could be condenced into 10 min short at most .The rest was just boring pointless filler.

Watched the first two and I want the rest.....now!

I love the way we discover things about their powers at the same time they do so therefore no back story to clumsily recap half way in - this is a good thing. Also the fact that some powers are still not fully known even two episodes in makes for plenty of reason to stick with it.

Hey now (hey now now)... as far as American television goes, Heroes is a damn fine show! Most prime-time American dramas revolve around criminal investigators or medical practitioners, other programs include your typical sitcoms and reality garbage... :roll:

Then came Heroes with it's ongoing comic book style drama (with cliffhanger endings!). It is hard to keep a sci-fi program on the local networks, but the human drama woven through it has kept American viewers tuning in! :D

I got into it with episode one! Along with Doctor Who and Torchwood, this is the only other program I religiously follow. :wink:

I have never seen a full episode of Lost... nor intend to. ;D
