Why I recommend this — 2 years ago
Season One has some fantastic episodes. At its best, Heroes is gobsmackingly awesome TV. There are admittedly some bad spots in the writing as well. Season finale, we’re talking about you! Also, a few of the set pieces I was really looking forward to are a little truncated… but it comes out ahead in the balance.
Friends have mentioned that it’s not treading any ground that hasn’t been tread in comics before, and I don’t doubt that. I think it scores points for bringing it to TV in such a slick way though.
The DVD boxed set is worth getting for the commentaries with Gred Grundberg alone. The love he has for the show is contagious.
