Well that was a somewhat dubious English accent.
I assume that America has lost Hugh Grant's telephone number.

i wanna know what that honduran bird can do. explode brains by the looks of things :smile1: Don't know whether that was directed at my post, but in case it was i'll defend it. Series 2 is ace and isn't slow moving. What i was implying is that it takes Americans forever to bring a show towards a conclusion. What i mean by that, is that series 2 has loads more characters and events introduced, and my observation is that it hardly deals with issues from series one. I could watch 8 series of it though, so on the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter at all.  |

I think I might be with Yeovil on this one. I managed to watch the first tenish of the first series before I got bored because nothing was happening.

Series 2 is so short (11 episodes against around double on the first series) because of the writes strike in the USA.
It was never going to be this short, however they had to cut it this way.
I have all of the second series in Hi Def and they look so cool - and I thought it was still great.
Cannot wait for series 3 now - hoping it will be the proper length this time !!!

A lot of US tv series are 13 (or so) episodes long as this fits in with seasonal broadcasting.

Didn't Heroes get short because of the writers strike? Loads of other things did.

A lot of US tv series are 13 (or so) episodes long as this fits in with seasonal broadcasting. There are still series than run 20-25 episodes. The intention to run a similar length to the first series was interrupted by the writers strike, as said already numerous times in the thread, so they rushed to a conclusion. That's why there is loads going on in the first episodes, and throughout the second series but because its rushed it's not as good. that's just an opinion, however i still enjoyed and i'd watch the 3rd/4th/5th series etc. |

Fact of the day: Peter Petrelli was also in Rocky Balboa as Rocky's son.
