why do i love heroes? let me count the ways... hee! ok, so there might not be a LOT of reasons, but everytime i watch it, i just fall in love all over again...
1. the writing is fantastic! tim kring was so on the money when he wrote this. i'm sure he's a big x-men fan; i mean, look at the way these characters are played out... claire is invincible = wolverine is that you? peter can absorb powers = rogue-ish... he can also RETAIN those powers and even move things with his mind (professor xavier)... the nuclear guy (forgot his name)has ties to pyro... i have yet to see a charcter who has the same powers as storm (maybeisaac mendez, since his eyes turn white too) i dunno...
2. but with the start of season two, we're introduced to new characters --> VERY INTERESTING ones at that. first, there's the infamous takezo kensei... played by the wonderful david anders from alias fame. i love him!!! this show is so getting a boost for the number of really cute, hot guys in it! then there's the much-awaited return to TV by none other than veronica mars herself, kristen bell! :) she's elle; a really shady character, but i love her nonetheless. even before i watched an episode with her in it, i've loved the fact that she's even IN the show; so it was a treat that she's a bad guy. hehe! then there're maya and alejandro --> brother and sister running from honduras to new york to find a "cure" for Maya's "disease".
3. did i say they have hot, hot, HOT guys in this show?
4. who knew takezo kensei had powers? and he seems not to age as he changes his name to one "adam monroe" (the other big bad for this season). who's the other one you ask?
5. why, no one else but SYLAR himself!
6. coolest new power? Elle's and Maya's... Maya's is kinda creepy and freaky, but it serves its purpose: IT FREAKS YOU OUT!
7. coolest power ever? peter's. he absorbs and RETAINS others' powers. how friggin' COOL is that???
8. oh, and milo ventimiglia is incredibly HOT in this season! :) yowza!
