Heroes "Genesis" 09/25/06
Spoiler:
Being a superhero geek, I was looking most forward to this series when it was first announced. Having said that, I was a bit....bored with the pilot. Hopefully it picks up in future weeks. |
Damn, you posted just as I was, but my thread errored out when I submitteded it. Probably my most anticipated new show this season.
http://www.nbc.com/NBC_First_Look/images/heroes.jpg They thought they were like everyone else... until they woke with incredible abilities. In Japan, a lowly office worker can teleport at will. In New York, a struggling artist can paint the future. In Los Angeles, a discontented beat cop can hear the thoughts of others. Elsewhere, a high school cheerleader discovers she is unbreakable and a single mom realizes she has a powerful alter ego. Heroes chronicles the lives of these people and the lives of others like them - whose destiny just might be saving humankind. |
It wasn't too bad, I'll watch this in real time and time-shift the CBS Monday comedies in this timeslot for now.
Ali Larter's got a smokin' bod these days, too. |
Finally! The wait is over. I have been looking forward to this show.
|
This reminds me a lot of the short lived 80s show "Misifits of Science", except set in the 21st century. They have quite an esemble to build stories with, but I don't know if they're ever going to truly form a group. If so, I wonder if they will eventually have to face a team of villains with powers as well?
I read that this show will most likely get a cult following, but we all know that never really helps a show if its on Network. I wonder how long Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Smallville, or Battlestar Galactica (the new one) would have lasted had they gone on network? |
Not expecting much after reading these comments from TV Gal on Zap2It:
""Heroes" (premiering Monday at 9 p.m. on NBC): I know this is so not what you want to hear, but despite a great cast, I really found the pilot quite lackluster. We'll talk more about this show next week. Three stars." |
Well this is my most anticipated new show of the season...Wow 2 possible shows on Mon. night on NBC.
|
I didn't even really want to watch, but then the network told me it was the best show ever, so I will watch.

Well, since our local CBS affiliate is showing the Falcons-Saints game, that's my viewing schedule for tonight.
|
I am looking forward to this too!
Hope it is good. |
This is by far my most anticipated show of the year. Cannot wait.
|
I gotta say ... its not a high energy show. Most scenes are slow to develop and if you don't like dark, slow paced drama, you might not like this.
I liked it, but I like darkness. |
I've got 3 extra iTunes download cards for this episode, and they expire on 10/15/2006. The theater gave me a small stack of them when I went last week. I'm not sure what the proper etiquette is for giving out codes like this. I'll email a download code to the first 3 that post an email address requesting one. If that is frowned upon, I'll just edit this post and give the codes out another way.
I thought the episode was pretty good, and I'm really looking forward to next week's episode. I also hope they clear up one thing in particular. I don't know if this really requires a spoiler tag, but I'll use one just in case. Spoiler:

Seems a lot like X-Men.
|
Unbreakable the television series... I guess I'll watch a couple episodes.

I thought I would note that my guide shows that the pilot is being shown again tomorrow. I know I have some recording conflicts tonight, so I'm going to record it when it re-airs.
|
ehhhhh it was okay, more like surface then lost. the cheerleader character annoyed the hell out of me. And unbreakable was way better then this, but Ill keep watching hopefully it will get better.
|
How is this any different than the 4400? It's basically following the people with powers around, instead of those trying to stop them from using it.
|
I won't be home but it'll definitely be interesting to see how it came out. Like I said...i already saw the pilot in May and loved it.
