Like most people who were blown away by the first season of Heroes, I thought season two was just horrible. I just saw the fall preview video clip and I think the creator of the show wants to redeem his reputation and that he might just do it. Check it out and let me know what you think

I am always amazed at how critics are so wrapped up in their own critic-ness that they forget what they are watching. Star Wars IS a Saturday morning serial. That was the whole idea. The FANS turned it into something serious and philosophical. It is a saturday morning science-fiction series

Too bad to hear this, but ihad a sneaking suspicion that Gendy Tartokovky's great "Clone Wars" animated shorts would set the high standard this movie couldn't live up to. Truthfully, the best of Star Wars work has been either directed and/or written by someone other than Lucas. --

Never heard of this flick, but there's a movie called Batman: Mystery of Batwoman on Cartoon Network right now. Batman encounters Batwoman, the African-American daughter of a crime boss who I think is a vigilante herself. The movie was made in 2003, and features most of the original voice

I thought season one finale was good. At that point, Peter had really mastered his mimic ability had hey? Had he even flown consciously before that, other than the time he floated with his brother? And even then, he was going critical, about to explode. I can see how he'd have trouble using his

As always, you make good points. I can concede what you say, which is one reason I don't count myself a true Star Wars fan. I like it as entertaining scifi, but i'm not a devotee, the way I am of Star Trek or Babylon 5. And it's exactly because of what you said: Lucas crafted a tale that's more

While I did not think season one was crappy, I really can't refute much else of what you say except one important point. Heroes took massive losses when it came to viewership. So much so, they canceled all spin-off plans even though it had a time slot, the cast was hired, some scripts were
