Ok, I know there's a discussion thread on Heroes already (in fact there's 2!) but these are both way ahead of UK audiences who have only seen up to episode 4 as of now, so I thought I'd create some episode based threads similar to the BSG & Stargate ones to allow us to discuss them as well and to help us avoid future spoilers in the existing discussion threads.
The first episode is, appropriately enough, called Genesis and is basically an introduction to most of the main characters as listed below.
Hiro Nakamura - A Japanese office worker who is convinced he can control time & space
Nathan Petrelli - A NY Mayor running for re-election who discovers he has superpowers and doesn't really want them!
Peter Petrelli - Nathan's brother and a male nurse who really wants to fly and discovers he can...
Isaac Mendez - a NY painter who can paint the future
Nikki Sanders - A single mother who lives in Texas and is in money trouble with the mob
Claire Bennett - A High School cheerleader who discovers that she can heal her injuries almost instanteously
Mohinder Suresh - the son of a professor who was convinced that humans would develop superpowers and was working on a way to 'map' them so he could identify where they were.
This episode deals with introducing the main characters (I love Claire's intro) and setting the scene as it were. The episode focuses on Mohinder as he comes to grips with his father's sudden death and vows to carry on his work.
So Hiro manages to teleport himself from Toyko to New York and we have the great cliffhanger with Peter & Nathan and also with Nikki discovering her hidden abilities.
Thoughts?
