I tried watching it - didn't really like it at all.

1. Because the writing is reasonably good.

2. Because it maintains the feeling that it is moving toward something, that the destination has been known since the beginning and isn't being made up as they go along (I have no idea how true that is).

3. Because, so far, the writing has provided revelations at the same pace as revealing new mysteries. Many shows that try to maintain suspense over a long period just pile on the confusion.

I beg to differ on the writing. IMO, the writing on the show is incredible - as are many of the cast.

OMG, i was going to do a thread on this show... But this show rocks.. I never feel like there is much time during the hour.. The show is great!!

I am just eager to see what the hell are they going to do with Sylar!

This is a show that I love but I will have to catch up during the summer. My lust for Keifer made me forget all about it

thecorndogwalker · 05-16-2007, 08:32 PM

All I know is that aside from being an incredible time sink, I'm so glad I decided to go online to catch up on all the episodes.

I don't watch TV. Shows that get an incredible amount of buzz from people whose opinions I trust and usually share ... I rent on DVD, and watch an entire season at once. I cannot go week to week with series any longer, but I do have the patience to wait until the DVDs are released.

I WILL be renting Heroes as soon as it's available.

Oh crap. I just saw the future episode.

Shock and complete awe.

iSm: Don't buy into me right now. I'm just all weird and stoked, and would hate to get anyone's hopes up. It's just been a long time since I've found a series that I've been able to get into this much. It could suck, for all I know... but I could care less.

BWAHAHAHA!

(I do have to thank NBC for putting it all up there. Though it's tiresome to see the same product advertised 6 times, it's less time than the normal commercial break, and I can catch up on the boards a minute at a time.)
