Heroes Series 2 Episode 1


The Heroes gang are back for their second series. Tim Kring's show was without doubt the biggest success story of last seasons shows but can it fight off all contenders this year? It will definitely give it a shot going on the first episode of the second series. All of our favourite characters are back including cheerleader Claire Bennet and Hiro Nakamura, but are coming to grip with the side-effects of what happened at the end of series one. There are some new characters introduced carefully and just as you think the show is plodding along there are some nice twists and turns to mix it all up. The worry I've always had with Heroes is that for some reason the emotional attachment to all of the characters is pretty low. It's nice eye candy and a freak show, but do we really care if they live or die? That's the big challenge that the second series of Heroes must work on. This is a JM RECOMMENDS for now.
