    Yay, Heroes.. right in the middle of my night class at college

    Here's hoping they keep up with the good storytelling.

    I'm kinda hoping that Journeyman is good, that would make Monday's the best night on TV for me. Prison Break, Heroes, and Journeyman.

    Indeed. i'm gonna check it out just cause Lucius Vorenus is in it

    I kinda wanted to check out Chuck as well.. but it's ono at the same time as Prison Break..so i'll have to maybe catch one on the early show (I get EST channels as well as PST channels so everything is on twice - just three hours apart)

    I expect Journeyman to fail horribly, but I'm gonna love it while it's on.

    Related: Pullo will be the new Punisher. Awww yeah.

    Luckily, I never watched Prison Break, so I can do Chuck, Heroes and Journeyman.

    Good times.

    If only Studio 60 would come back, Monday would be manna from heaven for me.

    I think you and my sister are the only ones that liked that show. It had potential but it was just too much drama not enough laughs.

    I am soo ****ed and Sad that NBC and Itunes did not work out a deal... Itunes was my only method of getting a decent quality version of Heroes legally while stationed overseas.. I will miss this season until it comes out on DVD.

    You have no idea how much this upsets me..

    NBC is supposed to be going with streams from their website. With ads of course, which imo is better then paying for them. They did this last season with Heroes. You have a week to watch the episode if you missed it on Monday.

    Almost all the major TV stations are dumping apple to go for the streams with inserted ads. Offering them for sale wasn't stopping people from just illegally downloading the episodes anyway. So they figure you can watch it for free and have a 30 second ad in there once in awhile and it's at least less hassle then finding and downloading it.

    CBS has been doing this for awhile so has ABC, NBC was the last one to really go into it.

    It was too much understated laughs that were delivered so fast you didn't realize it was funny until they'd moved on.

    AKA It was an Aaron Sorkin show.

    I knew it would die, but I was hoping for a couple more seasons, ala Sports Night.

    But:

    HEROES!

    BOING BOING!

    Suresh is back, which annoys me, but maybe he'll get a real part, not just a gimpy narrator role.

    I want to see Parkman become the next HRG.

    I want to see Wireless - was she even in Heroes? She's a pretty serious badass per the graphic novels....

    And I want the Haitian to just stand around and look cool. If anyone read his graphic novel, he's a pretty tragic dude overall.

    It is pretty dang high quality too - I couldn't watch Lost at all last season, but I watched all the streams, and it was just as good. Typically you get 2 long ads from a single company, rather than the normal ones you get on TV too, which is easier to ignore - just go get a coke when it's on.

    Aye, it even pauses for you to continue the show after the ads are done. hehe.

    With me having classes Mondays from 6-10 pm, I'm basically on the.. if they don't stream it, I don't see it train.

    This would be great if they allowed me to watch them overseas..

    Like I said.., Itunes has been My only option to legally watch the show.

    THe streams and downloads on NBC.com are blocked for me overseas.
    Amazon.com which NBC uses now is also blocked.. So right now I have no Legal means to watch the show at a decent quality, unti the DVD comes out.

    Could you get one of those IP masking things that makes it look like you are from the US?

    Wish I knew who survived but my local NBC station decided to show the saints game instead of heroes and journeyman.

    Your local station is not a true NBC station then since MFN is ABC still, but moved to ESPN now because ABC got tired of being last in the ratings every Monday night.

    Luckily you can catch the replay starting tomorrow on NBC.com

    Not sure if SciFi channel will be airing it on Friday nights at 7:00PM again.

    I will not spoil the surprise for you tonight, but I will say they don't cover all the characters from last year in the first episode and from previews for next week it looks like episode 2 will be lacking as well in that department. So far it seems like last years magic will continue as they leave us with many questions to speculate on by the end of the first show

    Most of those programs check your IP and if you do not have a US ip you can not buy from them. Itunes allows you to if you have a US address and US bank account which i do since I am a US citizen Stationed overseas.
