I saw the Heroes premiere last night. I don't want to do spoilers for anybody, but-

EEEEEE ADORABLE JAPANESE GEEK MAN!!!

... I'm sorry, I really liked Hiro.

What is Heroes? *is so out of the loop on this one thing*

[camwyn]

American TV program that just premiered last night. Basic premise: superhero-type powers start erupting in the population all over the planet, and the people with them interact to a certain degree although they don't always know it.

[wonderwhatif.livejournal.com]

Ngggh. I want to say 'Oh goody I'll watch it when it comes out here.'

But at the same time so much awesome stuff has come out of America lately that I'm trying to keep my scope small. Overwhelming.

[camwyn]

This is the first new television show I've been arsed to watch in ages. I think the last one before this was the cartoon Avatar: The Last Airbender.

[wonderwhatif.livejournal.com]

I was interested in seeing Avatar. But we can't afford Sky, so I missed out :/ Even though they did show it in Britain.

*eyes* The Heroes section of NBC's website sucks. I can't watch the episode because I'm over here and they don't have any sort of trailer preview type thing. Bah. Silly NBC.

[camwyn]

Do you have iTunes? I know in the States you can buy episodes of Avatar online, if that helps at all.

[wonderwhatif.livejournal.com]

I do. But I'll probably just wait and see if any of the normal TV channels pick it up. They do that...months afterwards ^^;

[paradisacorbasi.livejournal.com]

Heroes is also free on iTunes right now. I don't know if it will stay that way.

[can you tell I want this show to succeed?]

[wonderwhatif.livejournal.com]

Oh good. Because I can't watch the NBC one because I'm in Ireland. It won't let me ^^ Thanks!

[paradisacorbasi.livejournal.com]

You can watch it online on www.nbc.com!

DAMN IT I MISSED IT.

*now has to wait for it to be rerun*

[msp-hacker.livejournal.com]

I think it's rerunning tonight? It's also rerunning on SciFi n Friday.

*SPOILERS*

I was sold on him just running down the aisle at work, but when he ever referenced a Kitty Pryde,...Sold doesn't even begin to cover it.

Re: *SPOILERS*

[almeda.livejournal.com]

Kitty Pryde *AND* an issue number! Plus all the 'Spocku' and suchlike japlish just squeed me so hard.

Icons. I must have icons of My Hiro!! But nobody seems to have publicity shots or other screencaps online anywhere. Sniff.

[blackswanevent.livejournal.com]

*feels need to gratuitously post icons*

I could say something like-OMGMYFANGIRLISMANDHARASSMENTOFALLOFYOUWASJUSTIFIED but-

Dude. this show. Hiro. It's gonna be HUUUUGE.

....and Hiro-Ray is the thread everybody wants for Christmas.

[almeda.livejournal.com]

According to their site they blew away their timeslot, ratings-wise. Which is encouraging.

[paradisacorbasi.livejournal.com]

...so when can we expect Hiro to show up at Millyways?

*giggleduck*

[camwyn]

Someone else needs to app him. That way we can have the thread summarized as follows:

Ray: Whoa! Japanese twin brother I never knew I had!
Hiro: AIYA! RAY STANTZ! *insert Japanese flailing here*
Ray: *insert American flailing here*
Bar: *collapses into black hole composed entirely of pure geekitude*

[blackswanevent.livejournal.com]

*ninjain* This is the part where I insert something about Destiny Cam-but you're absolutely right.


....We need to clone you.


Or get you to do the Niki Sanders "Two people at once" thing.

[whisper2ascream.livejournal.com]

I'd be tempted, but not sure if I can pull him off well enough.

[camwyn]

To borrow a description one of my friends used last night, Hiro is made of equal parts pure geekboy and fuzzy baby chickens. That takes a lot.

[whisper2ascream.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Yes, that sounds about right for him.

[wickedtrue.livejournal.com]

I am still stalking someone from out of our game sphere into taking up Hiro! A real geek boy. *cackles and STALKS*

[whisper2ascream.livejournal.com]

And woot! Yay, new person and another geek! He should definitely join!
