Heroes


I've starting watching Heroes and the show is interesting so far. Basically they took the idea from Unbreakable and made it into a TV Series. The basic premise is that ordinary people discover that they have super powers. One of the "heroes" is able to see into the future and sees a nuclear explosion in NY. The plot is getting these strangers together and somehow preventing this from happening (I guess they form the Justice League). There's one guy who is able to teleport and stop time, one (or two) who can fly, one who reads minds (I'll call him Professor X), one who is unbreakable, and a woman who has a split personality (not sure I'd call it a super power...). I just hope they don't start wearing tights.

I didn't see the pilot, but read some things about it on the web, so I thought I'd check it out. They're still developing the characters, so not much "action" is going on, but a sinister plot is starting to develop. I like the plot device where the guy who can see the future (only when he's high tho) draws comic books or makes paintings. The Japanese guy sees the comic book and everything in it tells him what will happen in the near future such as saving a particular girl.
