    The way that the story is developed is incredible. The show runs like a comic book. The acting crew is very good. The show is very well written too with a good pace between episodes. Is a shame that in "Reborn" they lost the hand on the show...

    Season one is one of my favorite shows and would've been a perfect miniseries had it been allowed to end . Nevertheless what this grand NBC flagship does in it's 20+ episodes is genuinely incomparable in television even till this day,a show that never lagged or became contrived. The ensemble cast is a well balanced act that despite experiencing the usual pitfalls of a large cast such asSeason one is one of my favorite shows and would've been a perfect miniseries had it been allowed to end .

    the first season was slow, second and third season had more action but the fourth season is terrible.

    Woo, Sylar was so cool and mysterious. Good acting.

    I don't like the later seasons. This season is a magnificent gun though.

    Also, great climax.

    The show is too diffuse, hokey and self-consciously portentous to suggest suspenseful possibility.

    The writing is uneven... but the idea is audacious enough to keep you following the loose threads.
  3. "Heroes" is one of TV's most imaginative creations and might, with luck, become this year's "Lost."
