[VN Boards Archive]
Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Decent start... hope it doesn't turn into some kind of Heroes Jr. Would be nice to see something like The Incredibles since it is a family and not turn into some Lost/soap opera thing. I liked the first one and look forward to watching them learn about their powers and deal with them.

first one was ok, not sure if it'll hold up but I'll watch the next couple.

Aside from the random plot holes, I thought it was okay. I agree, if this turns into a Heroes Jr. I'll drop it in a heart beat.

heroes was awesome for an entire season though. so if this is heroes jr it could also be awesome for a season. i'm hoping it's more like the incredibles though. that's what i thought it would be when i first saw the trailers coming out of comic con.

The Heroes Jr comment was for its rapid nose dive into crap, lol. I'd be all over a first season type Heroes show, heh. Really though with good writing you could do an Incredibles style show with that group and make it both funny and damn cool.

I didn't see any previews or promotions for this. Also very true about Heroes having a great first season. praying

I was disappointed they killed Officer Cho off.

This week felt a bit slow in the story, and the husband annoys the hell out of me. I hope they start to pace the story a bit better.

I really like Michael Chiklis, so I will give it a good solid chance.

A couple episodes in and I'm just not feeling it. I like the premise though so will continue to give it a shot for now.

A couple episodes later, I'm still right here with you.

I think they are about to take the same leap Heroes did and start taking themselves too seriously.
This show was fun to watch when they were all learning about their powers but now the show is just getting dark too quick.
Though I have to admit seeing 'the commish' leaping about is kinda funny!
