yes, this show rocks and is currently the overall best on tv right now

You have yet to see The Wire. I would nominate Lost as well and although I haven't seen any episodes (waiting until I finish The Wire), Battlestar Galactica. Heroes is not top-tier TV.

Heroes is enjoyable, but it's still a rookie. Friday Night Lights is also a rookie and a better show, but who knows if it'll get picked up.

House? (this season is hit and miss though) The Shield? Deadwood? Way better than those you listed...

[Aimless]

I stopped watching House just before Christmas because of that stupid cop, but the episodes since they got rid of him have been extremely entertaining =)

This ep of Heroes was extremely satisfying. Except for them showing so little of hot 21-y-o brunette Claire in miniskirt

I wonder if they're gonna hafta go back in the past to kill her

I'm really curious about that vision Peter kept having, you know, the one where he explodes. It can't be as simple as Isaac's visions of the future of their timeline, but I can't figure out just why I think that. Uhm.

Must have next episode. Graaaa.

[kkyyyssss]

lost? battlestar galactica? you ve lost your mind if you think those are better... i have no idea what "The wire" is thought and the other shows you mentioned really arent the same kind of tv show at all...

Hayden Panitoomanyvowels is about three feet tall. The whole episode had her in these huge six inch thick shoes and they refused to zoom out on her beyond mid-thigh level so you wouldn't see the shoes. She's possibly the worst actor on the show, too.

Lost was interesting but went completely retarded in its second season. BSG was awesome but got traumatic brain injury in its third season.

House - pfft. Every other line is a set-up for a Hugh Laurie wisecrack. Boooooring.

The Shield - yet another show that started awesome, then climbed up its own asshole. After Acevedo went all rape-fantasist, I just couldn't be bothered.

Rubbish, that title belongs to either DL, Sprague, or Parkman.

EDIT: NO WAIT! The HAITIAN!

3ft is good for me, I'm vertically challenged too :cool: also, I <3 mid-thigh.

This is such a good show I have to pinch myself to see if I'm dreaming. There is no show out there that is half as enjoyable. And I love many tv shows.

The last episode just rocks! Weeeee!

I feel sorry for you people that can't enjoy such a fete. I guess you're not into sci-fi.

I wouldn't go that far. Heroes is a lot of fun, but it's no masterpiece. I'm a Lost fan, too, and I find the writing on Lost to be more interesting and the characters much better developed.

Now, if they could combine the two shows (Heroes lost on an island...sweet), that would be cool. I think I'd rather just have Lost's characters developing special powers, rather than having the Heroes show up in a plane crash. Hmm...I wonder what Kate's power would be...

[Aimless]

Maybe the power to grow mammaries!

She said ENJOYABLE, but I think she meant "kickass cool and satisfying". If so, she's totally right and deserves 2, no FOUR high-fives.

The show is called House. The character Gregory House is by far the most interesting of the bunch. The writing of House is fantastic and the wisecracks really are wise and do crack on people.

I was on the fence about the introduction of Sela Ward a while back, but the writers and actors handled that beautifully. I liked Tritter too. I also hope Omar Epps isn't leaving for good.

[Aimless]

I hated Tritter so much I stopped watching the show fortunately his departure was pretty sweet

Yeah!

And I mean it, Heroes is the best tv show ever. Other shows can be great, on many levels, but the feeling I get from Heroes is so far beyond anything else I have experienced, it's scaryyyy! I am not even hesitating - and that is even more scary! I mean, I am usually the skeptical individual in the group...!
Let me just say that I love House md. That show is very enjoyable, but Heroes still beat it senseless. Greg House is one of the most interesting characters in tv history, but Heroes still is better than that show.

Heroes reigns as king of High House Television. Never forget it.

Spoiler

For some reason, though Sylar and Peter's abilities are similar, the psycho can control it, and Peter can't?

Spoiler

Peter has the ability to absorb other peoples powers, while Sylar just eats their brains to steal their powers. Future Peter seems quite proficient at controlling his powers though, and seems easily on par with Sylar. Five-Years ago-Peter is just learning about his power, while Sylar had a lot of time to talk with Mohinders papi about what the powers are and all that, and hes had time to take other powers and practice.

We seem to have four possible ka-boom options...

1. Peter
2. Ted
3. Sylar
4. Linderman has Micah do something that makes the city go boom.

I'm theorizing that the big finish of the season has Hiro stab Sylar in the guts, Jikki and DL save Micah and Nathan does something wonderfully heroic like fly Peter into the sky where he can discharge Ted's power without bbq'ing NYC.

And THEN Five-years-in-the-future-Sylar shows up, end season.

Remember Future Hiro was shot in the torso, not head. Assuming future Sylar walked away from the big kaboom fight with future Peter last week, he could still eat Hiro's brainz, gain the time jump power and come back in time.

And yes, i know that's a paradox - how can Sylar be back in time alive when he was killed in the present, but screw it, it's a comic book put to tv, anything goes.

Aside: How awesome was the Sylar-Nathan switch last week? Loved it. Every time this show does something predictable (ie: stop the dark future storyline), it throws in a sweet curveball too.

Still loving the show. It's TV cotton candy, may lack depth at times, but no end of sugary goodness.

- Abyss, wants a scar like that. only not on the face.
