Good stuff! Haven't head any buzz about it yet though?

I watched the first run faithfully and then missed the last coule of shows, but thankfully the local channel has been showing all of them in preparation for the new season.

I'm more psyched about the upcoming new "Dexter" season! Begins this Sunday. Woo hoo!

I did however, catch last season of "Heroes" during a Sci Fi Channel marathon. I have to say, I was awfully dissapointed on the finale. And why I'm gonna wait to watch this, say the season DVD comes out.

Yep, Season 2 begins in a few minutes.

Today's KC Star reports that there will be one character who dies tonight.

They have been advertising on TV here the new seasons of House and a few other shows "Streamed direct form the US, watch it just after it airs in the states", but i havent heard anything about Heroes

Kind of a mixed bag. I'm really intrigued with the way Hiro's story is going. That left me wanting more.

The other stories seem weaker, especially Matt and Molly, and the Bennetts in hiding. We'll see where they go, I guess.

Yeah, wasn't much of a premiere. Nothing that would attract new audiences. I'm still hooked though.

Hiro.... you know, Monica and I think that he actually will turn out to be the hero that his dad told him stories about. He'll do it under the name of his hero.

Where the heck was Ali Larter in this episode anyway?

I had the same theory, but Erika disagreed. I think he is going to assume the role of Takezo, steal the heart of the swordmaker's daughter, etc.

I was only mildly interested in the new storyline with the extremely hot hispanic girl (my only reason for being interested in that thread at all).

I thought the copy center manager was funny. It may be weak, but I too am hooked, so it doesn't matter, and it was fun to watch him attempt to rule his little universe with an iron fist. I have met so many people just like that, and it was gratifying to see him put in his place.

Hiro is going to age twice as fast (or faster) if he becomes his hero and then pops into the future to live a life also.

Otherwise, I think it is more likely that he becomes his own hero. I want a show of just him!

Not a standout episode by far but it should be interesting to see how the setups they did in this episode play out.

I hope they don't bring back the invisible guy or the dude that is nuclear. (did he die?)
I wonder what Mr. Bennett's partner is up to? (the haitian)

I think you're dead on. But they'll have fun getting the whole thing to unfold.

I'm guessing that after he went blooie, enough pieces of Peter survived that he could regenerate, using Claire's power. But apparently it wasn't a big enough piece to retain memory.

Great theories.

JP - I almost forgot about the copy center manager.... that was hilarious!

The Hispanic storyline didn't do much for me either but I am curious as to how the girl seems to have the "Bloody Mary" effect. Weird.

I watched it, but I was as underwhelmed by this premier as I was disappointed at last season's finale.

However, I could deal with a show with just Hiro and the David Anders character (who is hilarious) and their storyline.

So they brought the Haitian back. I don't like Claire's "friend" at school. The hispanic couple don't excite me either. I do want to see more of whoever Molly is seeing.

Episode 2: for the most part: [yawn] Not even any Ali Larter eye candy to keep it interesting. Maybe Kring needs to stop (over)promoting the Nissan Rogue and work on some interesting scripts.

Glimmers of hope in a sea of darkness: again, Hiro and the Anders character make for great storytelling. Peter could be interesting again too. The rest of last night's episode was like a broadcast Nyquil.

I'm with Kaiser two shows in and I'm bored. The only story line that I find interesting is Hiro's.

I'm enjoying it..apart of course, from the worst Irish accets ever depicted on screen (Jaysus! Even Brad Pitt was better.and Tommy Lee Jones!?!??!?)... but I view it like the first few episodes of the first series...slow lead in to build tension.

Looking forward to the rest...
