New series Heroes: Drama about a group of people who discover they have superhuman powers
This show is going to be on NBC on Mondays. It's entirely reasonable it'll fall within the Sturgeon threshold, but it might just manage to be watchable. Which would be another reason to skip RAW is Mediocre! On Monday nights.
It will be interesting to see a network Superhero piece that isn't based on an existing comic property; hopefully it will be better than, say, Black Scorpion or Nightman. They kind of have to be, actually

Date: 2006-05-19 07:50 am (UTC)Greg Grunberg is just awesome whom I really liked on Alias, so will be fun to see him.
Ali Larter (whom I will always know as the hot but evil blonde on Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back) as a superpowered stripper? AWEsome.
Leonard Roberts, good ol' Forrest from the Initiative? Good to see him back in the geek-seat.
Hayden Panettiere is a damn cutie, and thankfully legally old enough for me to say that (well, almost, she's 18 in August I believe :) ) And come on, a totally indestructible cheerleader? That has SO much potential :)
My only complaint (and this strikes me as odd, cause I am so NOT PC normally) is the excessive use of stereotypes. Two of the main female characters? A stripper and a cheerleader. The black guy? An inmate. I really hope those are just coincidences and not by design because either way - unfortunate.
I will definitely have to remember to tune in.
