Heroes: Season One

The guy Peter was taking care of at the beginning of the series was a part of it as well.

Yep, and that was Simone's father. The girl Isaac accidentally shot while trying to kill Peter. That man had the dream related power that Peter picked up.

Its not sarcasm. I have a HUGE problem with Star Trek. I really tried to like it but its all "Let's talk to overly human looking aliens for 40 minutes then stun something with our phasers." It never really reeled me in. I guess Star Wars spoiled it for me.

The sarcasm question was made because Babylon 5 is NOT Star Trek. It's an entirely different universe. The "space station show" set in the Star Trek universe was "Deep Space Nine".

I Love Heroes and have been hooked since day 1. Season 1's ending kind of annoyed me on a few levels, but all-in-all I am really psyched for Season 2.

Right, right. I was going to put that he was Simone's father, but couldn't remember her name.

He's also the guy who saw Peter during his time traveling/vision/whatever thingie.

As the prior poster said, I think you are confusing two different shows. Babylon 5 was not and is not a Star Trek franchise show. They have nothing in common other than both are space shows, and one of the Star Trek shows (Deep Space 9) also involved a space station.

Deep Space 9 was the best of the Star Trek shows in my opinion by the way, and not a whole lot like the rest of the Star Trek franchise, but that is a different topic.

The 'time traveling/vision/whatever thingie' WAS the old man's power and therefore Peters also. I think he could journey in his dreams or maybe see the past or future. Perfect for Recon. When Peter appeared there in the past (or in his dream about the past) the guy was able to sense him because Peter was using his power. Also was probably behind his dreams of flying back in the very first episode.

Oh how I wish I had the Season 1 DVD's to go back and watch...

Got the DVDs and watched them late into the night with my wife, who never gets hooked like this. I really did not like the Sylar non-resolution. It was time to move onto a new villain, and how can they contain him? I enjoyed what they did with Bennett. I did not like the 5 years into the future Haitian - or how Parkman stole the diamonds (though I liked how he turned out in the 5 years into the future). Overall, great, great, captivating show.

I cannot watch on Mondays, and don't have Tivo as we watch virtually no tv. I'm not sure what I'll do this year, as I'd like to participate in all the speculation on the net....

Zaukrie, go to the NBC website: http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/video/episodes.shtml

You can usually watch the full episodes there online as early as right after the episode airs each monday night. I know I've already watched it a second time since last night on there today!

I did that for about 1/2 the year last year, but it was just too annoying on my really old, bad monitor. Plus, now my wife likes the show....Plus, the computer room is right outside my kids' room, so I need to turn the volume way down....Just too many negatives to watching on my computer, though I admit to being very tempted...

 

[Phoenix8008]

Just to make the temptation worse...

On the bright side, now the video player they have on the site is quite a bit bigger than the one from last year. I remember trying to see some details on that 2x3 inch screen and missing some because of it. The new video player they have starts at around 4x5 in. and can expand to larger or even full screen mode. As for noise, can you plug headphones into it anywhere? Just some ideas. Hope you are able to enjoy it somehow, otherwise I hope you enjoy the DVDs of season 2 when they come out!
