Besides, the chances of anyone remotely connected to Heroes actually reading my blog are roughly nil.

I think all the heroes, except for Hiro, feel their ability is a curse at some point. But that’s one of the things I love about his character. He’s the only one who ever seems to have a good time. All these people have powers, but where’s the fun? Where’s the joy? Why does it have to be angsty all the time?

It’s not that I need to see every character in every episode, but I think the writers are doing what Lost did in Season 2 — introduce a bunch of new characters only to kill them off later. That way, they add drama without getting the fan uproar that would follow if they offed Hiro, for instance. To me, that’s just cheating.

Greg Gunberg is always a treat to watch, although that whole subplot reminds me of My Two Dads.

Here’s who I would like to see sit down and talk to each other: Mohinder, Matt, Nathan, Mama Petrelli, Niki (who has made some sort of deal with The Company), Mr. Bennett, the Haitain, Claire, and Claire’s boyfriend (who I think is the killer, but that’s a post for another time).

I also think Peter had the Haitain mind-wipe him in purpose, but we’ll see about that …

Desperate Housewives has been pretty good. I love Dana Delaney rumbling with the other characters. However, I do wish the show would change its format just a bit. Does everyone who moves in that neighborhood have to have a dark, dark secret that is slowly revealed over 22 episodes?

I’m also enjoying Friday Night Lights, although I wonder how they’re going to resolve the murder subplot.

Probably the best show of the year for me has been My Name Is Earl. The jail subplot has been hysterical. Every week, it never fails to make me laugh. 😎

However the name of show is Heroes – Not Hero. Just like the X-Men, Heroes has many different characters with a wide range of abilities and stories. I don’t need to see every Hero in every episode.

Also seeing the abilities as a plague or curse is a good thing. That was the only thing about Nicki’s character I liked. So having these two new characters with some horrible power that isn’t a blessing can lead to more drama.

I think Parkman’s wife will play a part at some point this season, but for now his connection with Molly has been great. I’m really looking forward to see how his story is going to play out.

I’m not sure what characters you want to have a sit down The characters that are connected seem to be connected.

Friday Night Lights has been great so far, and Desperate Housewives is off to a wonderful start.
