Addicted to Heroes

Last weekend we bought the first season of the tv show, Heroes. Since then, we have been watching at least one episode every evening. In short, we are absolutely hooked! At the end of every episode, we find ourselves being tempted to watch another!

I am sure many of you know about this show but for those of you who don't, its basic premise is that a group of people have developed super powers and seem to have been destined/called to save the world from a major catastrophe. It quite interesting as at the beginning of every episode, there will be this narration which questions the nature of reality and human beings - are we products of evolution or otherwise? What about morality? If we really are products of evolution, then morality is no longer a matter of right or wrong but a question of survive or perish... the questioning goes on. Quite thought provoking.

What do you think? Have you seen the show? You like it?
