Ha ha! My wife's started watching Heroes and loves it. My cunning plan was to not ask her to watch it, but instead to leave all 21 episodes sitting around on the Apple TV for her. In my absence, she chose to idle her time away watching them. Hooray!
She's now up to episode 12 and is worrying that Sylar has too many powers, making him too dangerous. I think she'd be watching the rest of them this evening, but Canada's Next Top Model has just started and Project Catwalk's on soon, too.
So there you go: Heroes is loved by just about everyone who watches it, it seems. Let those of you who haven't started yet see that as a testimony to its quality.

Thank you! They don't call me 'Rob "Clever" Buckley' for nothing. And by 'they', I mean the people in my head that I made up to make me feel good about myself.

I think I should hereby refer to you only as Rob 'Clever' Buckley. Except that written like that it doesn't quite capture the truthfulness of the moniker; it just looks 'ironic' and THAT won't do at all.
you're still clever though.

Then you're good wife is about to be made even happier. Universal have just announced the series is getting a DVD and HD-DVD release at the end of August. See here: http://www.dvdtimes.co.uk/content.php?contentid=64858

Thanks! The rumours have been around for a while that that was the date. But it's a region 1 release so we'll probably wait til the official region 2 release. Plus oddly enough, we're not really into DVD box sets of shows we've already seen, unless the mood grabs us. I'm a bit of a neophiliac, myself...

You're very kind. MediumRob - or Medium Rob - suits my ego far better though.
