Heroes Blog
Within the last couple days me and my
roommates have gotten back into the old TV series heroes. There are four
seasons on Netflix and in two days we finished the first fourteen episodes in
season one. There’s something about a TV show where normal people like you and
me can all of the sudden do extraordinary things. The show follows the lives of
these young people in society and they all have a destiny to save the world.
The show follows them throughout their struggles and it shows them all coming
together in the strangest ways. In season one every hero doesn’t know there
powers yet and it shows them really trying to use these powers to all come
together to save the world. And of course every hero has its opposite a
villain. In this case we have a man named Sylar who aims to steal every hero’s
power by cutting their heads off and somehow consuming their brains and having
their power forever. That’s the underlying villain but also there is a secret
organization whose main goal is to find these special people who can do these
spectacular things and he takes them and tries to make them use that for good.
Or so that’s all we really learn from the first season. This show is really
trippy and it’s pretty addictive and it really kind of makes you wish you could
do some of these crazy things. Shows like this are what define generations of
TV. This show came out in 2006 and it was all the rage every person on Monday
nights would be watching it and every day at school people would be talking
about all of it. The show makes people want to be a part of something like a
hero organization. It is possible that this show got people to get involved in
actually saving the world even though like through community service or through
other help the world kind of organizations. Heroes has three other seasons that
have come out after this season but sadly every season after the first has only
gotten worse. This show did change the way people view heroes there not all in
spandex and in comic books this show brings the hero into all of us it shows
that there all around us and that people have their own special powers maybe
not flight maybe not being able to read minds but it is true that we are all
heroes to someone else and that is really what this show teaches us. Every
person has a power and can really truly make a difference in the world in one
way or another.
