Thoughts on SyFy series Alphas

  SyFy’s new superpowers drama “Alphas” has finally aired and it wasn’t as bad as I had thought it would be. In similar fashion to “Heroes”, SyFy’s “Alphas” follows ordinary people with extraordinary powers. Where it differs from “Heroes” is in its overall premise, with the “Alphas” coming together to help solve crimes. This group...

Ali Larter has veiled dig at Heroes

  Ali Larter has been chatting to IGN about the cancellation of Heroes and the long rumored Heroes movie. What’s funny about the interview is the way in which Larter pretty much sides with what a lot of Heroes fans (me included) feel to be the truth, that season one was awesome, then it got...

After 4 drawn out seasons Heroes finally axed

  This one should come with the subheading “about time”, but I wouldn’t be so cruel as to discount those few people who still call themselves fans of the show, so I wont. Heroes was promising, when its first few episodes aired I remember thinking, wow this Kring guy has done something unique and I...

Hayden Panettiere has fat days – SHUT UP!

  When she’s not off saving whales and crying about it, or playing an indestructible cheerleader in Heroes, Hayden Panettiere does interviews with magazines like ‘Now’ and expresses how insecure she is about her body.

TV shows on the endangered list – Axe a swinging

The Hollywood Reporter has taken it upon themselves to play a bit of judge, jury and executioner by listing the shows they believe are for the chop this year (with percentage chance of renewal).

Heroes ratings continue to slide

  I have no idea how this show has managed to squeeze out four seasons, but it has; someone has friends in high places. That said the ratings are still on the slippery slope with the series reaching an all new low of just over 5 million viewers, around a quarter of a million less...

Heroes stoops to “lesbians” to get ratings?

  You may have heard that Claire is going to “turn lesbian” in Heroes. I think it is pretty obvious what is going on here and it is the “hot girl kissing hot girl gets ratings or at the least a lot of coverage” card. Well the episode is just about to air and it’s...

Heroes ratings suck, it’s official

Wow the Heroes ratings are in and it looks like it’s had a whopping %46 drop in viewership when compared to the season opener for last season. It’s not a huge leap to suggest Heroes is finally on the slippery slope to TV axing hell. The series lucked out when season two took a nose...

Looks like Anders has impressed the people behind 24 since he’ll be...
