TubeSpoon - Heroes

Ditch that zero and get with a hero....

It has been a strange season to say the least. Hiro a 10 year old? Peter lost his powers [again]? Arthur Patrelli is alive and wants to right the world by destroying it? Nikki Saunders is Tracy Strauss, but not really because they were genetically created? Syler is brothers with Peter and Nathan....................and becomes a wuss in the future?????

Then they fired some writers..........

Now things are back to normal:
Nathan thinks he is doing good but in all actuallity is not - Awesome
Sylar is a killer again - Awesome
Peter is whiny again, just without his powers - Awesome
Hiro became the greatest hero ever, then fucked it up within seconds - Awesome.

See, what I am saying is that there was a reason why season 1 was so popular. If they stick to that theme for the rest of the season, it could possibly be saved.......... saved........... could the writers be the REAL heroes of this show?

TubeSpoon - Heroes: Villains

Heroes premiered last night with a bang. The exciting twists and turns already make up for the--in my opinion--piece of shit Season 2.

No spoilers here for the Tivo culture, so I'll make it brief.

Nathan's gunman is revealed right off the bat, Peter learns the brutal effects of The Butterfly Effect, and Hiro meets his arch-nemesis.

It will be a great season. Feel free to discuss when everyone watches the two hour premiere.

TubeSpoon - Heroes

Hiro Heroes season 3 begins in just a few days; Monday, September 22nd! On NBC of course!

This season will consists of two volumes. A 13-episode story arc called "Villans" and a 12-episode story arc entitled "Fugitives." The titles of these two volumes excite me, about damn time!

Looking at what Heroes has accomplished so far, my expectations for this new season are set very high. I look forward to seeing this psudeo X-Men world come to life and answering the "what if" question - "what if you had super-powers, would you use it for good or evil?"

I am expecting a lot from this season. I would like to see "good" characters change, have "bad" characters justify their reasons for being evil, seeing the three-way split occur between "normies" (normal people), heroes and villians; where the heroes (like all super heroes) must endure their social rejection from the normal people, yet constantly risk their own lives to protect those people from the evil villians who do not play by any rules, completely disregarding the safety of anyone other than their own.

How will this season turn out? Will I end up completely disappointed, giving up on the greatness that was heroes? Or will I be so enthralled with the fantastic-ness of this TV show, that in my drunken celebration of a great season, I'll find myself in the chair of a tattoo parlor, gleefully rummaging over a pile of potential Heroes-themed tattoos...for my face.
