I was always kind of skeptical of this relatively new show, the trailers never really inspired me to watch it. However, tonight out of boredom I watched the first three episodes. I must admit, it left me wanting to watch more.
 
Nope. I won't watch anything but Adult Swim, Science Channel, Mythbusters, some infomercials (for mocking purposes) and Good Eats.
 
Heroes is awesome!
It is basically a comic book in live action form. I like my shows to unravel, which this does nicely.
The " future " episode from this past week was very X-MEN ( comic book ).
 
its good, there was a period midseason where it got kinda dull but the last few episodes have been excellent, hopefully the end of the season doesn't disappoint.

I'm pretty sure they've have it all planned out from the start, so they won't drag it out and turn it into a piece of shit with no real direction like lost

Personally I think LOST has done really well story-wise this season. Lots of interesting things are happening, though they could stand to answer a few more questions.

just my opinion though.
 
I watch so little TV that I hadn't even heard of it until I stayed at my sister's house to take care of her animals. I was essentially bored out of my mind during the one episode I watched.

The 3rd season? I only know one person with Sky Digital who watches it, and he says it's only gotten worse, alas. I dunno, I'll have to see for myself.
 
what have they said they don't like about it?

Everyone I have talked to who watches the show has said it has gotten better.
I will say that the show takes a certain amount of concentration and patience, which people don't have lately. They want an hour long BANG and then story wrap up. This seems to be laid out to very slowly unravel over time.

It for me is similar in scope to Babylon 5, which took a lot of patience for all the elements to be worked out and exposed.

I concur. However, they say it's gotten waaaay too far-fetched and over-blown. And for although the makers claim there's no sort of supernatural stuff beyond empirically scientific happenings going on, that simply can't make sense. I don't mind, though, as I'm sure I'll enjoy it. :)

Thing is, people say to me all the time that 'Lost' is a heap of shite. But I can't be arsed defending it, knowing there's so much worse TV out there that I gladly don't watch, and that, sadly enough, many people do.

Don't know about the " only scientific " aspect of it, to me it seems to be on the fence as far as that is concerned. Especially due to the recent events of the show over the past two or three episodes.

I enjoy the show a lot, therefore I will defend it.
