Heroes

I haven't seen the show, but I'm not quite sure how it realates to new media. The previews reminded me of "Smallville" but the wikipedia article made it sound too complicated, too many characters. The heroin-addict who sees the future when he's high sounds hilarious; in season two will we discover that his real superpower is the ability to remain conscious for more than 4 hours a day? Amazing! All the RNA symbols and all that stuff gives it a kind X-Files feel, so it could be really cool. I almost want to watch simply to see a cheerleader mangle her hand in an in-sink-erator.
