Heroes

There are many TV shows and sitcoms on TV today. A lot of them are very similar to each other, however there is one show that I strongly feel stands out from all of the others. This show is called Heroes, it is a very complicated show that is constantly throwing you curve balls and surprises. The main point about this show is that people with abilities are trying to save the world, every season there is a new disaster that they need to stop from happening.
There is not really a main character to this show, there is about 6 or 7 main characters. Each with separate abilities. Some can fly, some can heal and never die, others can read minds or make you do something, while other control fire, or in some rare cases there are people who can take the power of whoever they encounter.
Although this may seem all well and good, not everyone uses there power for good. In fact some people kill to get more power. This is why several people took it upon there selves to stop these people before they could hurt anyone. These people are knows as the company. The company teams people up in pars, one human goes with one person with powers to even the playing field. However as the season go on you will learn that the company is not the only “company” that is after these people. In season 3 even the US government gets involved in the matter, however that may not be a good thing. They wish to catpure all of the people with powers, weather they are good or bad it does not matter to them. Although there is plenty of morally grey areas. IS what the “Company” is doing right? Are they making the world a better place? Is the US government a good guy or bad? Watch Heroes every Monday night to find out, and make your own call.
