Are There Any Heroes in Your Life?
Oct 7 2007
There are in mine! My husband and I watch the NBC Heroes TV show every week (thank goodness for DVRs). We got hooked in the first season and are hooked again. This season has started off a bit slower than I expected, but I am hopeful that some really cool stuff is up the writers’ sleeves.
The characters are great. The drama is intense. The science fiction is way cool. Wikipedia has a list of all the characters if you are interested in knowing their names and backgrounds. I know that several critics say the show reminds them too much of X-Men but to them I say ‘pfftph’ because who actually gets enough of the X-Men (and Women)?!? Plus since this is a TV show, there is more time to develop the lives and characters of each of the actors and actresses.
The one major criticism/comment I have is: How is it possible that the genetics genius Dr. Mohinder Suresh did not have a clue for such a long time that he was hanging out with the infamous Sylar? How could that smart and extremely handsome Dr. Suresh not realize he was leading the EVIL dude Sylar to all of the other genetically gifted individuals so Sylar could cut their heads off and steal their gifts? That did not make sense to me. Oh well…he better make up for that lapse in judgment in the current season!
NOTE: I was motivated to do this review for Problogger’s Last 24 Hour Giveaway competition. I really, really need want to win that $2,000 Internet marketing package being donated by IttyBiz. Since one kid is taking a nap and the other is at soccer with hubby, I said to myself “what better thing do I have to do on a Sunday afternoon than enter (by writing a review) for a great prize that if I won would really help me with my business.” It’s strange how us entrepreneurs think, isn’t it. 🙂
UPDATE October 9, 2007: As Pearl at Interesting Observations mentioned in the comments below, I wrote a little poem for my entry. Since she mentioned it, I thought I’d share it here:
IttyBitty spider crawled up and about the web
Down came the spam upon the spider’s head
Up came the Google juice (should have written Akismet) and dried up all the spam
And IttyBitty spider crawled through the web again. 🙂
