Uh... Heroes is back with a motherfucking vengence!

Let's recap a moment, shall we.

I was full-blown nerding out for season 1 of Heroes. Until the final episode. I felt it lacked a bit. Too many unanswered questions. Too many let-downs.

I had hoped Season 2 would remedy that. But no, I found it severely disappointing. I kept hoping that it would get better and it never did. Then the writer's strike ended it mercifully early. And after watching the dvd cut scenes that showed the potential direction of the rest of the season, I'm sure glad it went out with a whimper.

So tonight, I was excited about a new season, but not THAT excited.

And now I feel like a stupid asshole. Because for the past two hours I've been sitting on the edge of my couch saying HOLY SHIT over and over again. The only weak point I can see is the Hiro storyline. I didn't find it nearly as interesting as the others.

I don't want to spoil anything about the main plot points, since some of you might not have seen it yet. But I gotta say, it had some real Empire level shockers in it.

I can tell you one thing, consider me a fanboy full force for the rest of the season.

Shit. I DVRed it. For the life of me, I can't find a recap of last season and I can't friggin' remember what happened. Can one of y'all point me to a recap site? I started to watch it and got all WTF?






(And don't hate, but I watched Gossip Girl instead. I can't believe I just admitted that.)

gypsydoodlebug, can you send me a recap of last nights gossip girl? Check NBC (http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/video/categories/season-3/679102/) to watch the recap they played last night.

Graham, I'm with you. But I don't feel "out of the loop" as much as I feel "O.K. about things."
