Is anyone gonna watch that new NBC series "Heroes"?

They're promoting the hell outta that show... I even got a little credit-card-sized hologram with info on the show when I went to the movies yesterday. Apparently you can download the first episode on iTunes as well...

Is it "supernatural"? I don't know anything about it... are they like superheroes or something? Do they just get super powers randomly or do they have them all their lives?

Wendy and Lisa? Seriously? New stuff? Cool!

What about the girls? Are they hot too? There's that one hot blonde from that one high school football movie.... is there some other decent snatch?

It's fab! I "obtained" a copy of the pilot last week.

I was amazed at how gory a few of the special effects were for a U.S. network show. The cheerleader character has a "self-healing" power like Wolverine and at one point, her ribs are hanging out and she just sticks them back in.

I think the most interesting character is the woman with the alter-ego she can only view in reflections.

It's like a cross between Lost, The X-Files and X-Men - but better. It's very, very, very good.

I'm really excited for the show!

Not that they are related, but if I enjoy this show I'm forcing myself to drop Prison Break since it's really a waste of time now.

I'm sorta intrigued by it. The commercials say "the show everyone's been talking about," but I hadn't heard about it - literally - until yesterday. shrug Maybe I just don't pay attention.

I never see commercials since I have a DVR. I love it. But I do read about the new shows and none of them seem that great to me.

That's probably why. lol I don't watch a whole lot of TV and when I do, it's DVR.

i'd give up prison bitch for this show if i were you. i'm gonna try to remember to watch it tonight, or at least tape it. if it comes on before 24, that'll be a fun night of geeky tv.

Has this been on yet? How many hours is the U.S. East Coast behind G.M.T.?

It wasnt half bad, a little slow but i do like that you are getting the backstory while its going on.

It could have some real interesting twists and turns as the characters learn bout their abilities.

I dont know if its going to take off though cause its a looks like something you have to watch and pay attention to, but ill give it a couple more episodes.

Its a real strange lead in to Studio 60 on the sunset strip, which btw had me aat hello.

yep, been over several hours on the east coast (it's 3:20 a.m. there now), and ended a couple of hours ago on the west coast.

I liked Heroes. I'm intrigued by some of the characters. I stuck around for 60 On The Sunset Strip. Not bad at all. They have some good writing. I enjoyed it. Nothing really WOW'd me though.

I had planned on watching this when I first heard about it, but now I'm too caught up on Vanished, which is on opposite Heroes.

I really liked it too. So, it's on my schedule.

I totally agree with those who feel it's an odd fit with Studio 60 though. But, what can you do. AT least (for me) they are on the same nite so I can just have one tv party instead of having shows all over the place to watch.
