Anyone watched the first two episodes?

Not sure if I like it or not. It's in the genre of LOST which I didn't really get into.

Guess I'll watch the next episode and see what happens.

Maurice was most disappointed by the misleading title.

So far I have managed to follow it ... I hated Lost and can't figure out how that came to have a cult following ...

Will probably give this one another go before deciding if it is a goer or not.

Its a bit all over the place... I can't really gather who are the goodies and who are the baddies just yet... most annoying part is the repeating of shit at the start of each episode, makes the first 5 mins of each seperate character a waste of time to watch if you watched the last episode...

still undecided as to whether I like it or not... not even any hot chicks to perv at...

I have watched all episodes except the last episode of the first season and im finding it OK. I did find it hard to get into though but am glad Ive kept watching it so far.

I don't see how it can drag on that long though... cause the asian guy see's NY blow up in 5 weeks... Unless they stop that and something else pops up... oh... and they need to stop that Sylo guy

It starts to make more sense. Eventually.....

Yeh I've seen up to episode 12ish I think... wouldn't say it's really that gripping, but it has potential I think.

Dodgy internet downloads, were have you been Jill, living under a rock.

And after watching the first two, i find that it is just to all over the place as well, not simple entertainment for a simple guy to blob in front of.

definatly keep watching it, its a bit all over the place at the start but it all ties in later. I torrented the first 11 ep and they are good. If you are not a torrent person you can go onto the NBC site http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/ they have all the played episodes from the states (up to 11) that you can watch online (don't know the quality though).

Enjoy :scooter:

Ahh the internet, of course...

Must have been a blonde moment...

I'll just wait for the next few episodes. I only ever watch TV on a Monday night (so I have something to do while I fold the washing and do the ironing of course) and if I downloaded all the episodes, I'd have nothing to watch while I do the washing...

I've seen most of the series so far and I think it is enjoyable and a good concept. Not the same cookie-cutter stuff US TV normally treats us to.

I believe the latest episode is screening in the US on Monday night so should be available to download to some of us later today (Arrr me hearties!!)

It's TV, how 'gripping' can it be? I suppose it's like anything if you watch it you become attuned to the storyline and know what the story is...

Some people watch Coronation Street and/orShortland street and seem to think that has some meaningful storylines...

Keep at it, things start moving quickly after about episode 6 and 10 & 11 kick ass. Ep 12 screens in the US tonight, so I'll do a review for you on Thursday ;-)

Nope, can't play them from here...

I think like with the BBC you need an IP address from that country in order to watch content on their websites.

It's not hard to set yourself up to torrent anyway... I mean if I can do it anybody could.

not sure about this show at all, the acting seems very average and the jap kid is the only likeable character, oh and the superhuman serial killer is interesting.

Seeing the cheerleader getting repeatedly f@#ked up in various ways strikes me as perverse and disturbing.

Evil reflecting chick, is a little bi-polar at them moment, I guess its a little more indepth then that.

Flying kid, should go back to 'the gilmore girls' and marry rori 'cus he is just a pretty face here.

Mind reading cop.....yeah well nothing to say about that except 'yawn'.

Lastly, 'the artist who paints the future', hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

It does get better, and the episodes do slowly come together and more is reveled.

I think I'm gonna like it. Didn't think the wee snaps looked that interesting but I gave it a go, and I'm getting hooked. A bit more interesting than a lot of the usual crap on TV. Where are the good programs! I get really annoyed at sitting through mind numbing shit for hours, then thinking about going to bed and then something good like Blackadder comes on at around 10pm - fuck why don't they play the outdated shit that's halfway decent any earlier! AHHHH Must invest in a DVD recorder or something.

OMG you are so good... you IRON! Wouldnt even know how to plug one in, or where to put the water.

Never heard of Hero's .. what channel? If its like Lost then, no point in watching it if Ive missed episodes already. I only watch Amazing Race.

Haven't watched 'Heroes' yet. Are there boobs and explosions? And bikes? And guns?

I can't watch it tonight, if it's on, though. I have Cries and Whispers on DVD.

And yes, Lissa... Keystone19 is indeed an, er, iron woman.

I don't normally watch tv, but happened to see the ads for Heroes and have seen the first 2 episodes now.
I think it looks pretty cool so far. I haven't seen Lost, so don't know what that's like. I'm surprised we're only 11 or so episodes behind the states.

i like it, i cant stand lost.

Same here, couldn't get into Lost at all, hated it. Heroes is, as someone else said, refreshingly different. I like the Jap, he's really funny, but I can't yet work out what's going on with reflector chick. And fly boy is just a nerd...

I also like the indestructible cheerleader, Arnie would approve!
