Another post regarding media and/or pop culture.

April 23rd, 2007

At the risk of making my few actual blog posts simply about things I watch, I just watched the latest epsiode of ‘Heroes’, which after a 97-week hiatus made it’s return to an episode that was 1/3 rehash of the last episode, 1/2 commercials, and 17% new stuff…and the icing on the cake, the salt in the wound, the final straw, the last remaining piece when you’ve got your 400 piece puzzle almost done is actually from a different puzzle that pictures some kind of landscape when YOUR puzzle is a star destroyer, and where did THAT come from, anyway?, is that next week’s episode was (at the very least advertised as) some kind of What If…? episode!

And then, you stop and think, boy, I’m getting worked up about a TV show.

…end transmission.

    I still liked it. I am wondering how much will really be wrapped up by season’s end though…

    eh. i dunno…..i’d like SOME closure @ some point. then again, they almost have to @ this point….SUPPOSEDLY based on some of the stuff out on TEH INTANETZ the next season will be more of a backround on the generations previous to this one…so they’d better tie this one up!

    Wired Magazine to the rescue! Check out the article Behind the Scenes With Heroes Creator Tim Kring and “Hiro,” Masi Oka for this wonderful quote from the creator of Heroes:

    “A big complaint for Lost was that you had to wade through too many shows before something happened,” Kring says. He is committed to wrapping up story lines each season instead of sinking too deeply into a meandering mythology. “The apocalyptic event in Heroes will be resolved in season one, and we’ll move on to something else in season two.”

    I like this guy! I was worried about the same issue until I read this.
