Has anyone heard of this Heroes show?

[Good & Evil]

I long ago gave up tv to watch shows in box set format, but I'm curious about this. Has anyone heard anything good/bad about this show?

Here are the Heroes

NBC has provided Superhero Hype! with new photos from Heroes, which will air Mondays at 9-10 p.m. EST in the network's 2006-07 primetime line-up. You can view the shots from the pilot and of the cast members here!

The epic drama Heroes chronicles the lives of ordinary people who discover they possess extraordinary abilities. As a total eclipse casts it shadow across the globe, viewers follow a genetics professor (Sendhil Ramamurthy, "Blind Guy Driving") in India whose father's disappearance leads him to uncover a secret theory -- there are people with super powers living among us. A young dreamer (Milo Ventimiglia, "The Bedford Diaries") tries to convince his politician brother (Adrian Pasdar, "Judging Amy") that he can fly. A high school cheerleader (Hayden Panettiere, "Ice Princess") learns that she is totally indestructible. A Las Vegas stripper (Ali Larter, "Final Destination"), struggling to make ends meet to support her young son (Noah Gray-Cabey, "My Wife & Kids"), uncovers that her mirror image has a secret. A prison inmate (Leonard Roberts, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer") mysteriously finds himself waking up outside of his cell. A gifted artist (Santiago Cabrera, "Empire"), whose drug addiction is destroying his life and the relationship with his girlfriend (Tawny Cypress, "Third Watch"), can paint the future. A down-on-his-luck beat cop (Greg Grunberg, "Alias") can hear people's thoughts, including the secrets of a captured terrorist. In Japan, a young man (Masi Oka, "Scrubs") develops a way to stop time through sheer will power. Their ultimate destiny is nothing less than saving the world.

Heroes is executive produced by creator/writer Tim Kring ("Crossing Jordan), Dennis Hammer ("Crossing Jordan") and David Semel ("House"), who also directed the pilot. The drama is from NBC Universal Television Studio.

Script's really damn good, I've heard that the clips they showed at the upfronts are a little cheesy, which has me worried, but I'm remaining optimistic. Heroes and Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip are the shows I can't wait to see this fall.

Sounds pretty interesting to me.

A great premise. I heard about this show a while back and am really glad it got picked up.

It will need a lot of love though or it won't last long.

[Tom Burgos]

Sounds cool!

Not sure what to make of this. Sounds cool, but like other things that sound good on paper, it could go either way. It could go as far as exploiting the comic industry, or suck so bad that another show of its kind isnt put out for years.
Hopefully it will stick somewhere in between, but on NBC, im not sure it will last more than 2 seasons max.

I've been really interested in this for months now. I try to keep my expectations low, but it's a losing battle. All I know is that I'll keep watching as long as it's better than Smallville.
