My current fascination...HeRoEs!!

I am currently hooked on to the US no 1 hit TV series “HEROES”!! I can’t seem to wait for next week’s continuation episode. As always, Malaysia is showing the earlier series, however courtesy of my bro in law, I have managed to complete episode 18, ooooh boy all I can say is it left me at the edge of the seat and I am dying to watch next week’s episode.

I am sure I am not the only dying fan of “Heroes”, many of my friends are also hooked on to it.
Heroes, an epic series that shows the lives of ordinary people across the globe, in which one by one discovers that they possess extraordinary power and abilities.

The drama starts of with the disappearance of a genetics professor from India who is responsible in uncovering the secret theory - there are people with super powers living among the normal us.

The few main characters which possess these supernatural powers consists of

A young dreamer (Peter Petrelli)) who can fly and make himself invisible.

A high school cheerleader (Claire Bennet, the "Ice Princess") learns that she is totally indestructible.

A Las Vegas stripper (Nikki), struggling to make ends meet to support her young son (Micha Sanders), discovers that her mirror image has a secret. Micha has extra powers just like his mom and dad where he is able to withdraw money from the ATM machine just by putting his hands on the key pads.

A fugitive from justice continues to baffle authorities who twice have been unable to contain him. He walks through walls and his hands can just go through anything solid, walls, human bodies etc.

A gifted artist (Isaac Mendez) whose drug addiction is destroying his life and relationship with his girlfriend (Simone), he can paint the future.

A down-on-his-luck Los Angeles beat cop (Matt Parkman) can hear people's thoughts, which puts him on the trail of an elusive serial killer.

In Japan, a young man (Hiro Nakamura) develops a way to stop time through sheer will power. Their ultimate destiny is nothing less than saving the world. In otherwords he can teleport himself thru time zones.

A policitian (Nathan Petrelli) who can fly.

A sicko (Syler) who intends to posses the ultimate power by killing others.


I love watching them and their extraordinary abilities, if I was given the choice (wishful thinking eh!!!), I would opt for Peter Petrelli’s extraordinary powers. Imagine being invisible and seeing the person who stole my money from my drawer!! Oh wow!!

What about you?? Which one would you go for??
