Title: Heroes (TV show)
Post by: Rath on January 04, 2008, 02:05:58 AM
Yes..I realize it isn't exactly new, but any show that has a villian that rips off the tops of his victim's heads to learn their abilities is worth a thread, am I right?

But yeah, just got season 1 on dvd finally and watched it all... surprisingly awesome I must say.

Watch it... NOW!

I found it rather boring personally, not enough violence and it seemed too farfetched for my taste.  There's also no educational value. (yes I like educational stuff for the most part as long as it's not narrated by someone who's monotone or about mathematics)  :)

I liked it quite a bit, but things turned pretty stupid when

you find out everyone is pretty much related to everyone else.

That's basicly the whole idea of the series...
Anyways I saw Season I and II but sadly season II was only like 13 eps long so now I'm stuck waiting another year for the next season.

Or longer actually, the reason it was so short was the whole writers strike thing. They want money for the dvd's too in addition to what they get for writing it initially.

EDIT:

I meant family relations.

I love the first season, it was awesome. I watched half of season 2 and couldn't really get into it, but I still have to watch it all. Also, the creator came out and apologized for season 2 being a bit lacking and not up to the first season.

I never could get into it. I tried when it was new and just thought it was stupid.

Indeed, I was really into wanting to watch this series, especially earlier on when I did... but I dunno, it just didn't cling to me at all. Same goes for that 4400 tv series... I waisted many precious hours watching that show. :(

I'm pretty much just not going to watch tv from now on. :/

I've never really gotten into any television shows besides comedy ones like Reno 911, South Park, and Kenny Vs. Spenny.

Then I would like to suggest to you that you watch the US version of The Office, Arrested Development and if you can find it, the British Comedy, Spaced. Probably my 3 favorite shows

Season one, outstanding. Can't get into Season 2. They're kinda killing it.

The only shows I cannot miss are Smallville and Supernatural. Smallville because Ive followed it since it was new and Supernatural cause its just plain amazing no questions asked.

I also really like a few new series this year namely Journeyman and Bionic Woman. Journeyman is really fantastic and really well done but I see it goin the way of shows like Firefly and Dresden Files and not gettin a 2nd season (if it hasnt already I havent looked) but Bionic Woman seemed to have been really well in ratings so depending on the strike it may continue.

Thats about it really. I watch Two and a Half Men and How I Met Your Mother and Rules of Engagement in the Heroes slot and I think thats also when Deal Or No Deal is on as well.

Actually he eats brains to get their abilities. But yeah, season 1 was the shit. Season 2 is complete shit.

I was uncertain of what he actually does with the brains, hence what I typed.

But is that proven that he eats them? I was under the impression that he studies the brains, much like how he studied the watches.

thats what I thought he did. I think he had super powers, cept his was probably somethinglike knowing how things work. Cuz I doubt he got any knowledge of how a brain work by repairing watches. >.>

If a show has brain eating yet no zombies, it must be good!
