(Um, provided it's on Space, up here in the frozen northern wilderness.)Heroes Anonymous... I dunno. Haven't they figured out that if you try to do a live-action superhero show and don't have a movie-sized budget, you end up with Mutant X or The Greatest American Hero? I mean, no hate on either of those shows, but even if the writing is decent, the live-action guy is rarely as buff and as coordinated as he would have been in a good animated series or on the page, and that's a problem you can only really deal with AFTER you've gotten the flight, energy-blast, and crashing-through-wall effects to look good.The best superhero live-action show to come out recently is The Tick, which, while still trying to find its balance, at least realized that the show had to be about the characters, not the effects or the glorious combat, neither of which were going to look as they did in the cartoon or the comic.</blockquote>
