Next episode is on april the 23rd. Damn you Americans and your weird TV show seasons. Why do you have to have breaks mid season? It was bad enough going without Prison Break!

Yeah, the guy who made LOST decided to break mid season. What the hell is that about?

they have to span the series over 30-something weeks or something, so when you only have 20 or so episodes they have a break in the middle. it something to do with how their TV networks run I guess. But this is the second break in the heroes season and it's a bit annoying.

They had a fucking break from October until March. That's long enough!

Lost had a longer than normal break so they don't have to break again until the end of the season.

Heroes was only back from a break to break for 5 more weeks. It's been beating 24 at the same time slot though which is awesome.

I'm finally getting to see Season 1, Season 2 is already a few week in. I'm stuck in a dilemma, is it better for me just to watch the dvd's of season 1 and not watch tv at all and ruin bits, or can i watch season 2 and still be ok?

Well i'm up to date now with Hero's... i'm not entirely sure why they stopped season 2 8 episodes in...

The twists aren't as twisty as I expected. I saw through a few of them. I'm still unsure why Nikki was released.

I'm not really feeling the new characters either...except maybe monica.

I want to know what mother petrelli's power is as well and bob's

I'm watching this show now! I'm up to episode 12 now in season one. I think this show is actually better than Battlestar Galactica on the first showing (I mean when I watch it for the first time). However, I think BSG has better acting and characters, and good replay value too. I've watched season 1 3 times, and season 2, twice.

I've never watched Battlestar Galactica, but I'm betting it has better writing than Heroes.
Heroes is watchable, but not worth all the hype it's been getting.

Am new to heros just finished season 1 and watched up 2 4 eps of season 2. I liek the series but it isnt my type so i cant really get all hyped up about it like some but i think its really good.

But arnt mid season breaks something to do with the americans sports. When entourage stopped mid season which has done twice it was for the super bowl i think.
