If the guy who wants to be my nemesis over at Pink Raygun really wants to be floored by a negative review, here's what Entertainment Weekly thinks of this season of Heroes so far. Just...wow. They're more flailingly pissed off than I am. I've learned my lesson from last season. I wasn't blown away by the show until well past the initial episodes. It's easy to forget, especially for an ADD-rag like this magazine (...that I subscribe to), that Heroes was far from perfect its first season.

Here's hoping for better things.

Speaking of Pink Raygun: Skip my review of Smallville and go right for viridian's. She's way funnier and manages to cover, in half the word count, much of my own feelings about Dean Cain's (finally!) guest starring episode. So far it was the least painful, maybe-this-is-even-good episode of the season.

Maybe I shouldn't bother with Season 1 after all...

Season one is entirely decent except for parts in the middle. If they would apply my unified theory of television--that there is no reason a single season needs to be longer than 13 episodes (give or take)--they'd have had a steadily good season. They just had some third-season LOST problems.

LMAO I will never understand why you think my reviews are better, dude. Just goes to show no one ever likes their own work, because I look at mine and go ugh.

But yours was funny! The cheese thing had me covering my screen at work, you jerk!

Oh, I like that review of Heroes. Especially the gassy baby line. Of course, I think Heroes is always better when the Petrelli brothers are on the screen at the same time, but I'm biased.

I don't like Peter, still, but Nathan is way compelling, so his lack of presence so far is bothering me.

It was an accurate review, in many ways, but still mean.
