Heroes-Another reason to get a DVR

Another pilot show tonight and I’m so digging this new show calls “Heroes” on the Peacock channel.  It follows a group of people from all over the globe from all walks of life with extraordinary abilities (this was taken from here, save me the typing folks).

As a total eclipse casts its shadow across the globe:

  • A genetics professor (Sendhil Ramamurthy, “Blind Guy Driving”) in India is led by father’s disappearance to uncover a secret theory — there are people with super powers living among us.
  • A young dreamer (Milo Ventimiglia-love him, “Gilmore Girls”) tries to convince his politician brother (Adrian Pasdar, “Judging Amy”) that he can fly.
  • A high school cheerleader (Hayden Panettiere, “Ice Princess”) learns that she is totally indestructible.
  • A Las Vegas stripper (Ali Larter, “Final Destination”), struggling to make ends meet to support her young son (Noah Gray-Cabey, “My Wife & Kids”), discovers that her mirror image has a secret.
  • A gifted artist (Santiago Cabrera, “Empire”), whose drug addiction is destroying his life and relationship with his girlfriend (Tawny Cypress, NBC’s “Third Watch”), can paint the future.

Their ultimate destiny is nothing less than saving the world…

I can’t wait for the next episode!!  If you were able to possess extraordinary ability, what special ability would you wish to have?  As for me, I think maybe the high school cheerleader above, she saves lives.  Check it out!

Flying would be super cool. So would freezing time. But I think I’d have to go with throwing fireballs. Yeah, the fireballs for sure.

I would want the ability to speak every language in the world. Then I could order a Coke anywhere.

That’s a hard one. I’m not sure what kind of super powers I’d like because with them comes responsibilities. I know, I’m a party pooper!

Hmmm. I found the previews mildly interesting, but didn’t watch the show. Apparently I missed the encore presentation tonight then too. Oh well.

And Peacock channel = NBC. Their logo is a peacock. Just thought I’d help.

Ability to be in two places at once… with WonderBaby, and with my other work…

I’m loving that show. Sigh. Like I need another show to watch.

I wouldn’t want to fly, ’cause I’m afraid of heights, but the cheerleader’s ability is kind of cool.

It sounds like I would really like this show.

Must. Not. Turn on. TV.

Thanks for checking out my leaf-raker. Um, you should know that he’s not always entirely productive;)
