On Monday night we finished watching Heroes series 1 on the Sci Fi channel, and even though we've had to put up with it being shown in 4:3 aspect ratio with annoying advert breaks, it's still the best show I think I've ever seen. I have been jumping off the sofa with excitement, almost shouting about how cool it is, and not many shows have ever had that effect!
Now the excitement is going to start all over again, and if you've not yet seen it and you're in the UK, for goodness sake, set your watches for next Wednesday night...
I've had mixed feelings about the recent series of Doctor Who; while I've enjoyed the Doctor's new assistant, Martha, the quality of the episodes has been very variable. The really rather awful Dalek two-parter in the middle didn't help the series much at all, aside from the fact that the Radio Times gave away the plot before it even aired! Grumbles aside, the last few episodes really picked up and have been very enjoyable.
The Human NatureĀ / Family of Blood two-part episode (based on a book by Paul Cornell) was wonderful, then there was the extremely creepy and wonderfully entertaining...
