Hi all

Well I don't normally stick threads in the social bar about TV shows, but this one has got me hooked. I have from my sister fianc?e the first 12 episodes of this show, and I will admit, I have watched 10 of those in the space of about 5 days.. :laugh:

Yes I really like this show, I love it's story plot, it's awesome characters, the actors chosen to play them is a stroke of genius, the genuine honesty and simpleness of the show at times, but at the same I also like the stuff that is using the more complicated styles.

For those who have never heard of this show before, it's about ordinary people, who find out they have extraordinary abilities, and it's about their struggle to find out who they really are and then working with that in their everyday lives and what they can do.

The show starts on Channel 7 tonight at 8:30pm, and if you want to watch something really cool and different, watch this... :)

Below is a list of the characters and their pictures, to give you a bit of an idea of who they are and what they can do.

I had it recommended to me so took 5 episodes to Sydney on my laptop. Was going to spread them out, but was too hooked! I hadn't met DL, so that's something to look forward to in the ones I haven't seen yet. :D

I agree Steve, I didn't think I'd get that hooked into a show, but I have with Heroes... :)

FS, watching 10 episodes in 5 days is a major feat for me, considering I work 9-5, went to Wollongong and had extended family over for the weekend and went out on Friday night, Sunday Night and Tuesday night... ;)

I have heard rave reviews of this show but haven't seen an episode.

Maybe that is because now that I have missed the first episodes, it is too late.

I'll pick it up on DVD or so something.

Are you watching it on Australian TV?

The first season just finished in the U.S. which I have been following.
