The New Season Of Heroes
Am I impressed? Not so much.
I was a little surprised when Hiro ended up in the virtual reality nightmare being dreamed by that Canadian girl who can’t wake up. And I know they’re really reaching for superpowers when they introduced the blind Hungarian girl who can smell colours.
What’s with the powers of Kristen Bell’s character, who supposedly can predict where a snowflake will fall that is identical to one she’s already seen.
It’s a little more understandable what they might be going to do with the Manchester street kid who can look at someone’s picture and make a best guess out of three what their superpower actually is.
I know that about halfway through the season they’ll be bringing in <font class=”redact”>Weird Al Yankovic</font> whose character will be something like the reverse of the <font class=”redact”>Haitian</font> except that he will be able to make people <font class=”redact”>sing songs they never knew well in the first place</font>. Save the <font class=”redact”>karaoke singer</font>, save the world? I don’t think so.
And seriously, what’s with the Montana <font class=”redact”>barmaid who can come up with a recipe</font> for absolutely anything? It’s painful for her, but <font class=”redact”>ultimately delicious</font>.
And who buys Kaito Nakamura’s <font class=”redact”>shoes</font>? Because that sure ain’t no superpower.
The first season was good, but I really have my reservations about this one. Kinda like the fifth season of <font class=”redact”>Night Court</font>.
