“Heroes” Airs this Fall on NBC
— June 22, 2006 Leave a Comment
“Heroes,” a new show about superheroes, will air this Fall on NBC, Mondays at 9 PM ET. I first learned of the show when NBC began airing commercials last week for it. It looks to be pretty interesting. Here is the synopsis of the show from NBC’s site.
Some people are born to be extraordinary.
They thought they were like everyone else… until they woke with incredible abilities. In Japan, a lowly office worker can teleport at will. In New York, a struggling artist can paint the future. In Los Angeles, a discontented beat cop can hear the thoughts of others. Elsewhere, a high school cheerleader discovers she is unbreakable and a single mom realizes she has a powerful alter ego. Heroes chronicles the lives of these people and the lives of others like them – whose destiny just might be saving humankind.
The site has a trailer for the show. It also has this quote.
NBC.com weekly exclusives include an original, animated graphic novel that follows new hero adventures.
Not sure what that means exactly, but a weekly graphic novel based on the characters on the show sounds pretty cool. This could turn out to be a really good show from NBC next Fall. NBC has been lucky with new shows lately. “Earl” or “The Office” anyone?
It seems that superheroes are everywhere these days and not just for comic books anymore. I know I will be looking forward to seeing what “Heroes” has to offer this Fall.
