Ordinary people discovering extraordinary abilities

Heroes;
On Monday night NBC has a new hit show that I've been waiting for, for a long time. Anyone that likes the whole idea abouts special powers, whether this is in comics, tv or movies should watch this show!

Synopsis;
The show is about just some general people who thought they're like everyone else, until they woke with incredible abilities. These abilities vary from person to person, but they're all needed to save the world.
They all start of in different places, but as the show progresses (without spoilers, ep 5 has been aired until now) they all start to come together one way or another.

Novels;
Cool thing is, after each show has been aired, NBC uploads a novel that picks up where they left of with insight into the characters of the show (drawn by Aspen Comics)!
So do you want to know how Mohinder got his job as a Taxi driver? Wanna know how DL got out? Take a look and download the .PDF comic novel right after the show airs over at www.nbc.com/Heroes/novels/!

So, what do you guys think of the show? Who is your favorite character and what do you think would be the best ability to have?

Yo, I just got turned on to this show today, 2 episodes in and its pretty good...Any of you ever watch it..? Comes on NBC...From what I can tell, its kind of like xmen, a researcher i checking out the mutation of the human genome that will spark the next evolutionary step in mankind...So far, I've met an invulnerable girl, a dude that cand bend space and time, a guy and his brother that can fly, and junkie that can see the future...

Pretty cool show so far, all I know is HDTV rocks..!

I'm loving the show, but don't spill any details. I haven't watched the last few episodes yet. Last I saw, the cheerleader was just recovering from her latest injury to discover she was in the middle of an autopsy.... Damn they do some freaky things with that chick... LOL
and Ali Larter's character is just plain sexy/scary as hell....

Don't know how old the cheerleader is in RL, but she's bout ready I can tell you that... The cheerleader is Hayden Leslie Panettiere and she was born August 21 1989 in Palisades, New York. She's been acting for quite a while ... in fact ... you might remember her as Coach Yoast's daughter in "Remember the Titans"......
...feel like a dirty ol' man yet????

FUHHHKKKKK -

I was running around yesterday like a chicken with my head cut off (which is only slightly better than being a head with your "chicken" cut off, if you know what i mean....).

Anyway, long story short, I missed Heroes - S1E07 - Nothing To Hide....

You still planning on posting it today Ayhja?

...and what do you think is up with that symbol...... ????

This hasn't reached the P.I yet. Not even a hint. Or I could be wrong. I heard of it online.

From the looks of it, looks good.

I think I should start DLing the series. /:D" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt=":D" />
