Heroes. Hands downn required watching for Junkies.

I've not gotten into the second season yet, so keep you gorram spoilers to yourself, but I thought season 1 was really frakkin' well writtern. The characters had depth, even the really evil, bad guy was more than just "Really Evil, Bad Guy". The fact that things didn't always work out for the best, which is my favourite type of story. The randomness and violence of Syler's killings should be enough to keep any junkie happy.

season three in less than a month!!

Wallerdad mentioned the writer's strike in his post earlier this year. Stand by folks, the actors are going to strike this coming season. Unless something changes, we have another season of goobered-up TV coming.

if every body else can't use their powers when the Haitian is around then why can Nathan fly away from Mr. Bennet and the Haitian?

Even if you don't like the superpower thing, you may enjoy http://www.playingforkeepsnovel.com . It's a superhero PodioBook, but the main characters are superheroes with seemingly useless powers.

the nikki/jessica chick is probably my favorite. if only being a psycho split personality bitch were really appreciated this much irl. oh yeah, i could go places. the kid that can get free cable has a pretty bad ass power. and his cousin who can mimic anything she sees isnt bad. i think i would like to be invisible. no, not like now - ignored - i mean like see through. i think that would own... we got drunk one night watching heroes and came up with the ultimate super power - the invisible gas man. think about it.. i know, its a lot more funny with beer... ---------------------------------------------- Live every week like it's Shark Week!

Heroes is the best show on TV right now. That is until Lost comes back in Feb. Also, I'm really enjoying Pushing Daisies; love the style, morbidity, and dry humor in that.

 

And for true Junkie style love on TV, we're gonna have to wait until the EarthCore miniseries. Unless it becomes a feature film first. :D


Pshing Daisies?

After last night's episode I was able to say to my oldest daughter, "Do you think it was alright for Clarie to lie to her father like that?" Answer: "I haven't lied to you like that yet." Rebuttal: "Yet?" It's a great show, our whole family watches it which is nice. Wonder how long it'll take sylar - oops... Gabriel to get his powers back so he can be badass sylar/sigler again...
