For those of you who join us for our live Heroes chats or just read the transcripts afterward, you know that I’ve been running really hot and cold on Heroes. This show wanders worse than any series since the last few seasons of Alias, and it can be infuriating. Heroes is not unlike a hyperactive […]
As we rolled into this week, I thought, “Surely, this is gonna be big.” Only two episodes left. This is where the rubber meets the road. Big things happening on Heroes. Yeah … not so much. Apparently, the cats down at Heroes HQ decided to throw all those eggs in that one big finale basket. […]

Once again, both Terminator and Dollhouse were down. They shared bad news with Chuck, Heroes, and Life On Mars. Reaper, Lie To Me, and Jesse Stone found themselves somewhere […]
