Last night the Sci-Fi channel mini-series Tin Man aired. It lived up to my expectations how about yours? We'll see what else airs from Tin Man this week on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Also tonight is the fall finale of Heroes. Which two heroes will die? Will the ending be rewarding? Discuss!

Tin Man "Parts 1 - 3"Discussion

Last night I watch an hour and a half of the two hour episode (with limited commercials too) of Time Man; I would have kept on watching it if it wasn't for school the next morning. The show had a clever way of making each of the characters unique and different but still keeping them to the base of the original character in the L. Frank Baum novel. Glitch is a man that had his brain taken away by the government because he was a genuis, Wyatt "Tin Man" Cain the sort-of bodyguard of the group, a retired cop that joined the resistance and lost his family because of it, and Raw a viewer with telepathic and healing abilites. They resemble Oz's Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion. No Toto though. I think the story is really great and even though we know the final resolution I am sure there will be twists along the way. And lastly DG the Dorothy Gale character, and lead. So what did you think of the first part? I still have to finish it tonight. I really enjoyed it since I am an Oz fan myself. I hope it keeps on getting better.

Heroes "Powerless" Discussion

I don't know everyone's opinionson the second season of Heroes, but I haven't been too happy with the way things have played out. They added seemingly pointless characters like Maya, and turned Sylar, Peter, and Hiro into a laughing stock (no powers, no memory... oh wait Hiro was already one). Nathan has had virtually no screen time and Niki developed another personallity (WHY WHY WHY). DL was never even mentioned until halfway through and Bob was just a pain in the butt. But this season hasn't been that bad. The past three weeks the show seems to be getting better, but this week will be the last one for a while (since Origins wont be on). First off, what have you though about the events that have happened this season? I know there are a lot of diehard fans that just love Heroes no matter what but, to me, you have to see a show's faults to be a real fan. I am going to watch it tonight and I wont stop watching it until it ends, I just think it could be better. Maybe this finale will help develope what may be a perfect third season.

Well thats okay. Hopefully Heroes ends on a good note because I have a feeling a lot of viewings wont be watching season three if it sucks. I mean if it isn't on until next fall might lose interest if the ending sucked. On the other hand the end of season one was good enough to bring me back for season two.

Amy: We commented at the same time xD

I'm going to watch Heroes as well! This season definately wasn't as good as the first season, but I enjoyed fairly well. Maya did seem pointless, although it's not that I hate her character. Some things could've been better, but overall, I liked this season!

Everytime Maya was on the screen we saw the same thing: she kills someone and then cries about it. Then her brother came to help until he died and then Sylar came.

ya well heroes was amazin last night and chapter 3 villains will be awesome so all i have to say is beware of the writers strike for lost heroes will rise again and will be back with more action and suspense then before a statement made by tim kring himself! booyah!

Posted Dec 4, 2007 12:58 pm PT

Posted Dec 4, 2007 10:21 pm PT
Ok I'm over it xD

I gotta say I was disappointed by Tin Man. I mean the characters were okay but for me that was the only good part. I felt a lot of the acting, especially by DG was way below average. Not a winner for me but I gave it a go.

This season of Heroes was not as good as the first, I'll admit that. But I don't know what so many fans were talking about when they said it was terrible? I mean I liked the addition of Maya and Ale not to mention West, not Monica so much but you can't love everything. Peter and Sylar's characters took a hit with no memories and no powers but I still found them interesting. Adam was a good place holder villain until Sylar got back to his old evil ways. Claire still had a lot of interesting things happening in her life and even though Nathan and Nikki didn't have a ton of screen time I felt what they did have was good, though it didn't matter much to me in Nikki's case seeing as I've never really been a fan. Matt and Mohinder got more screen time over last season which I thought was great, better to focus on all the characters then just two or three chief characters seeing as they drop like flies on this show. Overall I think this season thus far was good. Hopefully this strike will be over soon though because I sooo wanna see the fallout from Sylar getting his powers back, Nathan potentially getting killed, and all the other stuff that happened in the finale.

I like Tin Man actually.

As for Heroes I see what you mean, but I didn't really like Adam. After seeing David Anders play such a good Sark on Alias I was expecting so much more. Maybe it was just that he wasn't given a good part or something I just didn't like Adam's character (and he is apparently coming back). I have to admit that the last four or so episodes redeemed the season, but there were just too many things that made it bad to call it a great season. I think season one is the best right now, but we'll have to see more or season two (if they make more) or season three.
