Hmmm, do I know you under another nam...Hi Mj,<BR/><BR/>Mj...? Hmmm, do I know you under another name? You sound vaguely familiar.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, Heroes...I've yet to be won around. There's enough there for me to come back and have another looksee, but I think I'm just tired of the cookie-cutter faces you see in American drama. The main heroic protagonists all look the same.<BR/><BR/>By contrast UK drama tends to cast people that look like they've walked right out of the real world. I mean one glance of the hideous bunch of characters that make up EastEnders and you'll see what I mean.Alex Scarrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09234936060756402917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36443508.post-84229339014504436552007-07-27T11:50:00.000-07:002007-07-27T11:50:00.000-07:00Now, I think you're being pernickity, Alex. Heroes...Now, I think you're being pernickity, Alex. Heroes was brilliant...I understand what you're saying re the eye candy...but much as I liked the tubby policeman and thought here's a good character with depth...real...etc., etc., I thoroughly enjoyed looking at Rufus and Mohinder...Peter is too geeky...and you can't have an ugly cheerleader...agree script was clunky in parts, but thought the whole concept was intriguing...look out for the helix symbol....lots to build on there...it is all going to intertwine more than satisfactorily, I think....do I sound like a nerd now??? On another note...thoroughly enjoyed A Thosand Suns and we will reading more....mjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13860158009604086829noreply@blogger.com
