Haven't yet seen last night's Heroes, but will be watching later when I go home and unwind. I peeked and went ahead and saw what it was about, though. Does that make me a bad person? I have no qualms about reading reviews of movies that even give away the ending, seeing trailers that are so detailed they effectively give away the ending, or reading about Heroes in the NBC forums and finding all the juicy plot details beforehand. My wife, on the other hand, is the very opposite. She won't even watch a trailer for a movie that she has about a 1% probability of ever seeing. She values even the option of information about marginal films. Incredible. I've tried to be more closeted like her, but I just don't care. So I know basically what happens last night, and it only makes me want to see last night's episode even more. I'm sure there's a theoretical model in there somewhere just waiting to be written down.
Update It's 1:20 in the morning and I'm still awake. What started as an innocent trip to the backdoor to let the cat out turned into a long stay at the computer looking at old UFC videos on youtube. That was an hour and a half ago. I have also watched Heroes tonight and was pleased by the experience. I decided to move this post up to the top, as and leave the rambling nonsense post alone down below. Oh Writer's Strike. How I abhor you. I am sympathetic to your cause, but your blunt instrument of a strike is threatening to destroy my precious television shows. Indeed, The Office goes on reruns after Thursday, gasp! I have to play my geek card here, though. I am looney tunes over the show Heroes. Like, write sonnets about the show crazy for it. It's like a love letter written for me. If the show is cancelled, I will go gently into that good night having tasted of the sticky opium that is that show.
