Heroes

[Hyphnip]

I know I watch it. I'm really enjoying this show so far. How about you?

[sockcrotch]

This is so fucking great!

 

NBC has won my heart with some of the excellent shows they keep popping out.

[Hyphnip]

And yet they're always struggling in the ratings. I don't get it.

ABC sucks! NBC rules.

[Dan #3]

I adore this show, one of the best new shows in ages.

[Hyphnip]

easily my favorite show of the new season

 

this year- Heroes

last year- My Name Is Earl

2 years ago- The Office

3 years ago- Arrested Development

5 years ago- Scrubs

 

I usually end up obsessing over one new show per season. but not always

[darynalexander]

For every reason I swore I would never watch Lost, I am watching Heroes. I know that the creative team are responsible for both shitty Teen Wolf movies. I don't care. I know that the cliffhangers could continue forever without ever being resolved. I don't care.

[muffledscreams]

i watch heroes, and it's a pretty interesting plot line. it just feels so slow because there are so many characters we have to learn about and follow before they come together. but it's quite intriguing!

[Dan #3]

Tonight's episode is going to be intense.

[matrix]

I honestly thought this show looked gimmicky and hooky from the beginning and tried to stay away at all costs. I watched part of one episode and liked the Asian boy Hiro, cause he's kind of funny and have been watching since. It does have a rather generic and repeated plot line, but fun nonetheless.

i like him too. and i can attempt to put my high school and college japanese classes to use! (but i can't really understand much anyway.)

Hiro's the man. I love the fact that he played Franklin in Scrubs. He's easily the most interesting character in the show.

[Dan #3]

Hiro and Matt are my favourites.

 

I hope Matt divorces his wife.

[matrix]

Matt is the cop? He used to be on Alias, and very briefly on Lost, right?

[Dan #3]

Yup. Greg Grunberg.

[Crusader]

Hiro is so incredibly awesome. They had him on Conan and they talked hair. DId you know this guy's a programmer and a CGI animator for ILM?

[Hyphnip]

the entire show continues to blow me away week after week. I like the red head waitress.

[sockcrotch]

agreed.

 

also... interesting fact: Hiro was in the 3rd Austin Powers film for a brief and funny moment

[darynalexander]

The last sweeps episode just confirmed it - this is my favorite show on television. They successfully resolved plotlines and opened up new, interesting ones.

 

We know who Claire's father is and who works with him, what they do, etc. We know what Mohinder's father was studying. I have a feeling we'll find out a lot more about Sylar. Oh, and the "save the cheerleader, save the world" thing was resolved.

 

I read in an interview that by the seasons end, they will all be working together somehow.

[Hyphnip]

my nephew doesn't get how the blonde chick with MPD has a power. I saw it's super strength, he says shes just crazy and crazy isn't a power... but does crazy come with super strength? because then I'd like to be crazy.

[Dan #3]

I think that "Jessica" is the psychological manifestation of her power. She

I have actual Heroes spoilers, folks. Get your spoilers. They range from minor to to major.

 

SPOILER (Highlight to View)

First off, Nikki's alter ego is her dead sister Jessica who supposedly was abused by her father. Sylar didn't initially have any powers but tricked Mohinder's father to believing so, and now eats people's brains to gain their abilities (how is unknown). Hiro steals his samurai sword from a museum. Peter is the source of the NY explosion when he gains Ted's abilities and cannot control them.

 

That comes from a pinned topic on the NBC boards and the author in question has legitimate sources that have been proven accurate over time.

 

As for my own speculation, I think that Hiro's love interest has to end up dying and that's why she's not dead. Maybe if she didn't die, things would get worse somehow.

[Dan #3]

SPOILER (Highlight to View)

Those spoilers about Sylar can't be true, as we've seen him use "powers."

 

SPOILER (Highlight to View)

EDIT - Oh, wait, I just read the rest of the sentence. Therefore I have decided that that's fucking awesome about the brain eeating.

Ok, after numerous goading from friends and friends' parents, I watched tonight episode, with no prior knowledge of the series.

 

And Jebus H. Christ, I'm fucking HOOKED. I was horribly confused for most of it, but was half filled in.

 

I now have 9 past episodes to gorge myself on.

 

Why didn't anyone tell me Hiro was so goddamn adorable? I would have started watching everso much sooner...

[Hyphnip]

NOOOOOOO! Next munday is the fall finale! I guess we had a good run though, 11 episodes without any repeats tossed in. there is a reason why this show is the #1 new show of the season!

[Dan #3]

Who else knew that Gabriel was Sylar after 5 seconds?
