Well, I've just watched the first two episodes of Heroes. Which started late - my video stopped taping episode 1 and started taping episode 2 and at first I thought they might have edited the two together.

I spent the first episode wondering when it would start - the answer was five minutes before the end. So I looked forward to the second episode. Except it was weird. I almost started caring about the characters, and then something bizarre would happen and I just couldn't be doing with it. I didn't really dislike it, but I don't get why everyone's crazy about it either.

And as they said in Unmasked, there are lots of questions. I just don't really care what the answers are, though. Except that is doing Confidential type things Anthony Stewart Head's new job or something? (Although Unmasked was just as pointless as the similar-length Torchwood equivalent).

The one thing I really liked was that the Japanese guy immediately connected being able to warp time with being able to warp space. That was cool. In the whole 80 minutes, that was the best bit. Which probably says it all really.

So I now know who vote4nathan is, and Sylar sounds a lot less like a Vulcan when it's pronounced Siler (although how do you get le from lar?). But I'm not really feeling the need to watch it next week. And since my weekly viewing currently consists of Mock the Week I'm wondering whether it's worth spending 98p for a TV guide.

I liked it I thought it was quite cool!

Bit weird some of the characters powers, like the self-healing, but that would be awesome to be able to do.

Can't wait for next week!
