A thought about watching Heroes

It seems to me, from things I've read and people I've talked to that there's a general sense of disappointment that a lot of people feel at the end of each episode of Heroes. And I hesitate to say this, but I think they're watching it wrong. They're watching it like a TV show. They need to be watching it like a comic book. Especially like a modern comic book. The kind that gets written with the knowledge that it's going to be compiled as a trade paperback every six issues or so. In this case it'll be a DVD box set. See, the thing I'm noticing most is that it's not the cliffhangers that bother people. They don't mind being left hanging on the major plot points. They're used to that. It's the more subtle things that carry on from episode to episode. Things that as a comic book reader I know will carry through the entire arc. But to people who aren't used to how comics are written it feels like a point was raised and then abandoned without resolution.

I'm sure your nephew must be tired of the closet by now.

I Ugly Betty so much. I think it may actually be my favorite new show of the season. Yes, even more than Heroes.
