Excellent Series
I will start by saying that I am biased -- I liked comic books as a kids, watched all sorts of cartoons on Saturday mornings, and dressed up as various heroes for Halloween. Obviously, I enjoyed this season of Heroes quite a bit.
My wife, on the other hand, has no such predispositons and generally does NOT enjoy anything superhero, science fiction or computer-related. We heard a lot about the show, but did not watch it until we purchased the DVD set -- then we watched the episodes three or four at a time. The story is just that good. (We would have watched more, but we have jobs, kids, and other responsibiliies)
If you don't buy it, rent it... in this case, the show is worth the hype.
Excellent Service
I was extremely pleased with the fast and efficient service. My DVD arrived at it's destination quickly. I would definitely order from them again.
A Matter of Opinion
I watched the first episode of Heroes, and while it was well made with very good acting, I came away with a less than positive view of this program. The producers seem to strongly promote the theory of evolution, mildly promote teen suicidal attempts, etc. In general, if you're looking for a good sci-fi with high morals, and some family values more like Smallville promotes, you might would rather watch, well... Smallville. I'm selling my Heroes set.
heros series 1
what more can you say????????? great show, great service. thanks so much. would highly reccomend.
Heroes - Season One
For those like me who missed episodes, had gaps from interruptions or had failing attention, Heroes 1st season is a pleasant reintroduction to the beginning of the Heroes series. I haven't seen a quality sci-fi program that wasn't worthwhile seeing again, and you usually find elements not seen the first time.
A DVD set, obviously, provides a very good long term storage system for quality video images and stereo sound. And it's a far better storage system than VHS tape. Technology is always marching on, and DVD is safe for 5-10 years. Most advances are incremental steps; choose your shots well.
So, I'll be getting the additional years/ seasons as they are available.
