Hrm. Nice to have it back. A bit weak. Some of it looked downright cheesy. The season premier looked slapped together. The dark feel, the tension was kind of missing. I suspect maybe because they tried to update us on the major characters (save for the fightin' blonde chick and her mulato kid) and didn't have a lot of time for a story line/mood.
The guy playing the samurai hero didn't catch me. He's clearly a Han Solo archetype but he seemed rather weak.

I thought it was pretty cool. I'm wondering who the Mexican chick is, though. Obviously she kills people.
And how the hell did Peter get back? That makes me angry. Can we say, "deus ex machina?" |

I stopped watching that after about the 4th episode or so in the first season. Watched some of the final episode. Thought it was pretty lame.
I dunno. Maybe I'll give it a try, but I won't bother downloading the episodes I "missed" last year. |

I was going to post a few spoilers but I hate doing some weird spoiler kludge. My philosophy on this is "if you know the most current ep is out and you haven't seen it yet, then just avoid clicking on the ESL forum topic devoted to the show." I won't look at the Lost thread until I've seen the latest ep. Same goes here. But like I said I avoided some spoilers in the initial posting simply because it was new.
Yeah, looks like Peter is suffering memory loss.
There were, what, apparently 12 original something or anothers that started this whole evolution thing.
And are they setting it up that there's some virus that's attacking the mutants? I kind of hate the "we gotta cure the virus" season long story arch. Didn't they use it in a spin off of Babylon 5 and Star Trek Enterprise? |

The first season started on a weak note too. It's hard to see where it's going, but at least it was better than the Prison Break season premiere. |

Yeah, that was some bad accent attempt. Any ideas as to who the mystery person is? Do you think it's someone we've seen before or a not? SuperAction played the whole first season over Chuseok (tues and wed). That Molly girl mentioned a guy that scared her more than the "boogey man" because when she locates him, he can see her. I wonder if he's the guy. |

They're going to introduce a leprechaun, that guy who can turn spoons into gold has something to do with it. |

I noticed the first ep of season 2 being played yesterday on a display computer at Yongsan. It had Korean subtitles. Geez it only came out a couple days ago. Either some media org is doing translation or there are some serious Korean Heroes geeks doing over night translating. |

Each show has its own geeks translating the episodes as they are released. I remember last year during Prison Break season 2 the guy doing all the translating got pissed off at everyone's impatience that he threatened to retire. |

I'm hoping the "omgvirus" thing was just a ruse to get Suresh in with the Company. |
