View Full Version : Is anyone watching Heroes still? *possible spoilers*

I've missed out since watching all of series 1, most of 2 and perhaps a bit of 3.

I think we're in season 5 now, and I was really confused because Peter has a slightly different power now - he can only borrow one other power at a time. That kind of sucks for him, but I guess it's better for the story.

*edit* and that explains why he couldn't just regenerate after he got shot...

Only highlight if you want to know the reason why his power is like that.

His daddy came back from a coma and proceeded to take over the world. In an attempt to stop him our Peter let himself be touched by his daddy, as he thought he was a nice man after all. Daddy's power is to absorb other powers with a simple touch ence Peter lost his. He only got the altered limited version of his power back due to a vacinne which was going to end the world until the lab exploded. I really don't know much of the new season though as I just lost interest. :p

The end

Thanks Charmed :) I looked up a bit about it, but I'm caught between wanting to watch the missing episodes and just watching what's on TV.

I don't tend to watch loads of TV, but at the moment I'm recording Sons of Anarchy, Being Human and Heroes.

I might post up on facebook asking someone to lend me boxsets.

If you allow me to I would like to recommend "drum roll" 30 Rock. Every episode will make you laugh non stop and it is already in its 4th season.

I am not sure if Bt Vision has all the Heroes series but it costs about £6/monthly and lets you instantly stream a lot of tv shows. There are times when I just watch shows all afternoon on it... :)

I have virgin on demand, and it's pretty terrible for being updated, but it also only goes to the small TV.

If it's on terrestrial I can record to the PC which is good, and also interesting is that media center can now stream sky over the net, meaning I should be able to record that too?

And today I read about a (ridiculously expensive £30 per month) sky sports package that lets you stream over xbox live... but the thing I like, is that it enables live chat with your friends :) I don't watch much sport, but it seems like it would be perfect for that.

There's just so much going on right now... I suppose I could just get a VGA cable and plug a laptop into the big TV, but it's gonna be a dumb resolution... And the next thing we're gonna get is a netbook, which I doubt will have HDMI or a great graphics card

It's so confusing!
