Heroes is back and better than ever

When Heroes first aired a few years ago, I was blown away.  Ordinary people with extraordinary abilities.  I thought it was such an original idea, and episode after episode I was more and more hooked.  Who hasn’t daydreamed about the idea of finding out that they were invincible, or could read minds, or could travel through time.  And the way in which each character came to terms with their abilities seemed so genuine, and so real, that I couldn’t help but want more and more after each episode.  I couldn’t wait to go into work Tuesday and talk to my co-workers about the events that had unfolded and the craziness that was ensuing.

And then season two came around, and it seemed like all of the Heroes fans disappeared.  Everybody complained about how slow the story was going, and about how nothing was being answered, and all of these new meaningless characters were being introduced.  While it wasn’t easy, I stuck through season two, and I couldn’t be happier that I did, because the show that was being chastised last season has come back in a big way.  Heroes season three has brought back that excitement and energy that made season one so great to watch.  Good guys are becoming bad buys, bad guys are becoming good guys, and people’s powers are being taken from them.  I once again find myself on the edge of my seat the entire episode and always seem to have more questions then answers when the show is over.  So if you are one of those people who got off the Heroes band wagon during or after season two, I am here to tell you that it is not too late to get back on because the Heroes that we fell in love with in Season one is back, and only getting better.
