Looks like the BBC are keeping very close to US transmission dates for a change. We've got episodes 1 and 2 from the third season being broadcast over here tonight, so that makes us only eight or nine days behind for a change.
I might well follow it that way for a change - nobody on my flist sees to be talking about it which is a massive change from the first season. People just got bored?

Personally, I felt it dragged a lot to start with, going for the slow build again like season 1, but forgetting the wow factor. It definitely picked up again towards the end I will admit.

Yes, I watched both eps last night (mainly, have to admit, cos I want to watch Paul Merton in India, which is on Channel 5 next week at 9pm, and watching both eps this week meant I can do that without having to record Heroes.
The eps were good. I enjoyed them.

It's just not all that different from the first season, except not as good. I mean... Last night it was on my DVR unwatched, and Dr Scientist and I watched two other shows before we got to Heroes. First season, I watched it first, right when I got home from work.
It's kinda lost its shiny, in my opinion.

And did the producers of Chuck ever deliver the whole, "Sarah wears next-to-nothing and looks good in it," for the blokes.

I finally got caught up last night... I had the first three chapters on the Tivo.simplymonki and I discussed it at length, and there are a number of WTF moments, which means that it's shaping up to be an excellent season so far.
Plus, Momma Petrelli is really sort of creepy...
I'll be talking about Heroes. Unlike most people, I quite enjoyed season 2.
