ya, i missed the episode where they explain stuff about Hero\'s dad so seeing him involved with everything was a bit of a shocker and to see him teaching Hero..... great stuff, but what the hell is Ando thinking going after Sylar on his own, doof. seeing Linderman go down was an interesting twist... is he really dead but the brain thing worked on Peter sooooo. Great show, looking forward to next week as well.

Great scenes, (also kinda funny because of Hiro\'s obsession with Star Trek)  Also loved the story about the original owner of the sword, (I forget his name right now)

Yeah but peter has the ability to regenerate, where Linderman has the ability to heal others, are they one in the sam? perhaps, but I think he\'s dead.

Peter was so badass in the future episode. The fact that he can learn anyones powers is nuts and he doesn\'t have to kill them to do it. When he squared off with sylar that was pretty sick

Kinda wished we could have seen more of that battle but reminded myself it\'s only TV not the movies.

I\'m a big fan of commentaries, movies or otherwise, they have all the episodes with commentary online but I\'m not much of a fan of watching stuff on the computer.  Also just looking forward to watching the whole thing in order again. no dvr.

Me! if you are a big fan of commentaries I cannot recommend Batman the Movie (the 1960\'s version) it has to be some of the funniest commentary I have ever listened to during a movie. I am not a huge fan of commentaries but Kim and I took a chance 1 night and boy were we happily surprised. Adam West And Burt Ward do the commentary on the movie and it is side splittingly funny. They bust on the movie, the actors etc etc. really good stuff. It is like watching a great MST3K

FYI: the Sci-Fi Channel is doing an all day and all night marathon of Heroes right now.


While watching this and seein gsome of the scenes with Hiro and his dad, it makes me wonder, does Hiro\'s father have an ability?  He seems to sort of allude to it, but you never see him actually do anything other than sword fight.  Also whatever happened to that girl that can send electronic messages she got Parkman and Ted together and then in the next episode was no where to be seen.


just found this too.

[QUOTE="heroesrevealed.com]Seven-Disc Set Featuring the Never-Before-Aired 73-Minute Premiere Episode.
Available on DVD and HD DVD August 28, 2007 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment.

Ordinary people with extraordinary abilities link a group of complete strangers that may determine the future of the world when Heroes: Season 1 comes to DVD and HD DVD August 28, 2007 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment.

The most acclaimed and addictive new series of the 2006-2007 television season, Heroes: Season 1, which was created by Tim Kring (”Providence,” “Crossing Jordan”), features an extraordinary ensemble cast that includes Sendhil Ramamurthy (Blind Guy Driving), Milo Ventimiglia (”Gilmore Girls”), Adrian Pasdar (”Judging Amy”), Hayden Panettiere (Bring It On: All Or Nothing), Ali Larter (Final Destination), Noah Gray-Cabey, (”My Wife & Kids”), Leonard Roberts (”Smallville”), Santiago Cabrera (”Empire”), Tawny Cypress (NBC’s “Third Watch”), Greg Grunberg (”Alias”), Masi Oka, (NBC’s “Scrubs”), Jack Coleman (”Dynasty”), James Kyson Lee (NBC’s “Las Vegas”), Zachary Quinto (”24″), Ashley Crow (NBC’s “American Dreams”), Cristine Rose (NBC’s “Friends”), Jimmy Jean-Louis (Monster-in-Law), Eric Roberts (”Less than Perfect”) and Malcolm McDowall (”Entourage”). Electrifying intrigue, compelling mythology and soaring imagination make the NBC epic drama the must see event of the year. Praised for its “propulsive, surprisingly and emotionally charged storytelling” by Entertainment Weekly, Heroes nabbed the People’s Choice Award for Favorite New Drama Series and a Golden Globe(r) nomination for Best Drama Series of 2007, even before completing its first season. Heroes is television’s number-one new show of the 2006-2007 season.

“Heroes is one of those rare television series with such broad popular and critical appeal that it has become an instant cultural phenomenon,” said Craig Kornblau, President of Universal Studios Home Entertainment and Universal Studios Digital Platforms. “With the extraordinary array of compelling bonus content offered on both the DVD and HD DVD respectively, this title, which has already generated tremendous anticipation among consumers, is well poised to be one of the greatest, must-have DVDs of the year.”

The seven-disc DVD set is packed with revealing bonus features, including five featurettes, over 50 deleted scenes plus the 73-minute Tim Kring cut of the original series premiere that has never aired on television and much more. The seven-disc DVD version is priced at $59.98 S.R.P. Preorder close is July 24, 2007.[/QUOTE]

Caught a bunch of episodes last night. When I first saw the show at the beginning of season 1, I really couldn\'t get into it. Quite honestly, I thought it was stupid. But, after seeing a couple of the later episodes and then the first few, I got sucked in. Really enjoying the show. Now I\'m off to download the rest of the season.

:lol: :that:  We stayed up until about 6am last night, watching almost every episode of the show... I\'m hoping someone will be recording the finale on Monday night, since Tka & I will be at Osiris watching the best funk/jazz group ever! ;)

Since I work nights I\'ve been recording episodes so I can watch them when I get home.  I\'m sure I\'ll see you around Todd\'s birthday, so I can bring you a tape with the last two epsiodes on it.

Actually I just remembered NBC.com has full episodes online so you can just watch it there.

Please bring the tape. I hate watching shows on the computer and it takes a bit to convert downloaded .avi\'s to dvd format. I really need to either finish building my video server for my tv or buy an avi player.
