Heroes - “Dying of the Light”

I almost didn’t bother with this post.  As you can see, it’s a week overdue, and it’s going to be really short.  Heroes, unfortunately, is continuing to disappoint me, and I’ve found myself with less and less interest in watching it.  Last week, for the very first time, it actually bored me, and I worked […]

Let the Healing Begin

Over on Twitter, Douglas gave me a heads up to an excellent article at MSNtv entitled How to Heal ‘Heroes.’  It goes through ten of the biggest problems the show has been handing us, and gives concrete, constructive advice on how to resolve them.

Heroes - “Angels and Monsters”

My disappointment with Heroes continues to grow, unfortunately.  So much so that I really just didn’t feel like writing anything up last night after watching it.  Instead, I checked out Christian Slater’s new show, My Own Worst Enemy, which actually held my attention better, at least in its first episode.
Let’s get right to it and […]

Heroes - “I Am Become Death”

Better late than never, right?  I was once again beyond exhausted last night and didn’t get around to writing up.  Part of it, I have to admit, is I’m not as excited about Heroes as I have been in the past.  It’s still better than most of what passes for television these days, to be […]

Heroes - “One of Us, One of Them”

I’m late in getting this one out.  By the time last night’s Heroes wrapped up, my allergy medicine had me so sleepy it was all I could do to make it to the bedroom before I fell asleep.  But better late than never!
“One of Us, One of Them” wasn’t one of the more action-packed, edge […]

Heroes - “The Second Coming” and “The Butterfly Effect”

Finally, after all these months, the new season of Heroes, entitled “Villains,” has begun.
As expected, they got off with a bang, and picked up pretty much where the last season left off.  I will admit, I watched the two-part premier with a bit of trepidation and probably more of a critical eye than I have […]

Heroes - “Powerless”

Now THAT was a season finale. Everything ended in true comic book style, with the current arc tied up, and the new one poised to begin in 2008. They fulfilled their promises from last week’s previews, but managed to do it in a way that surprised me. Again. You’d think I’d […]

Heroes - “Truth and Consequences”

It’s definitely all coming down to the wire now. All the plot lines in Heroes are drawing together ever tighter. While it’s been obvious for a little while now what the finale will be all about next week, I’ve really been enjoying the ride, and tonight was no different. And, as usual, […]

Heroes - “Cautionary Tales”

Tonight’s Heroes reminded us yet again that nothing is going to be exactly what we expect in the show. It’s going to be a short entry tonight, since I’m on vacation with my family and couldn’t watch as closely as usual.
Let’s get to the spoilers.

Heroes - “Four Months Ago”

Ever since the Heroes season premier we’ve been waiting to find out what exactly happened in the four months that passed after last season’s finale. Tonight, we finally have our answers. They did a good job of framing the episode with current events while taking us systematically through the previous four months, and […]
