Heroes (II) (2006–2010)
10/10
A contender for Best Show Ever!
8 February 2007
When I saw the trailer for this in the surprising best movie I've ever seen, The Descent, I knew it looked unique, different, and fantastic, but I had no idea just how great it would be.

"Heroes" prevails without a doubt in the area of character development. The show is not reliant on constant action but rather an incredible relation to the realistic characters and then a mind-blowing release. "Homecoming" is a favorite episode of mine because of the way it sealed up the whole "Save the Cheerleader, Save the World" deal. I'm sure the season finale will be absolutely extraordinary as well, as it should all lead up to an amazing concluding episode. One could only imagine my joy when it was officially announced for a second season. All of the characters are interesting, intriguing, and well-written, and my favorites are Peter and Claire.

Not only is "Heroes" a perfect character drama piece, but also a mesmerizing tale of what would happen if real people with real emotions got superpowers. The images are stunning and vivid, and the special effects are subtle and realistic. This is what a good superhero show should be.

After nearly an entire season, I already rank "Heroes" second among my favorite TV shows of all time—it ranks second just under "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." There isn't a single negative thing to say about the show except for the fact that after the passing of each episode, you only want more, more, more! This is, quite honestly and truly, the most addictive show ever on television. Be sure not to miss even a single episode of "Heroes!" You should check out one of the highest rated new shows—you won't be disappointed!

EDIT: After all of season 1 has completed and the finale aired, Heroes is still one of my favorite shows. The finale was my favorite episode of the entire season as every storyline reached its peak and all of the characters finally met face to face. I loved every minute of it.
