Not The X-Files, but Good.

4 stars
Heroes is an exciting and brisk science fiction show about 'ordinary' people developing 'extraordianary' powers. The characters reside around the world, but have been gradually crossing paths in various locations, apparently connected in some kind of active evolutionary process. Masi Oka steals the show as Hiro Nakamura. The name may sound like a cheap pun, but great authors like John Steinbeck have employed such simple metaphors. Hiro can bend time and space, thus allowing him to travel from Tokyo New York City simply by squinting. In Las Vegas, Niki Sanders (Ali Larter) has discovered an alter ego named Jessica who appears as an active apparition. In Odessa, Texas, a cheerleader named Claire Bennett (Hayden Panettiere) can instantly heal from any fall, cut or burn. In Los Angeles, a police officer begins to hear the thoughts of everyone around him, a la Mel Gibson What Women Want. And all over the world, more and more Heroes are developing. Perhaps the writers did not have all these Heroes planned at the outset of the pilot, but the show's success has allowed the program to go in expansive new directions. Recently the show has introduced the 'anti-hero' Sylar, who is hell-bent on destroying all the herores. The show is building towards a climax, and once all the Heroes are united, the action will be orgasmic. Tune in Monday nights, it beats the sunglasses off David Caruso and CSI: Miami.

Leslie Hunt and Antonella's ....

5 stars
The Yahoo TV blogger likes Leslie Hunt. I think she is the worst finalist left, down there with Sunjaya. I don't mean to be offensive in any way, but in the girls, all the African American girls are in a whole different league than the white girls...here is my rankings:
1.Stephanie
2.Lakisha
3.Melinda
4.Sabrina or Serena or whatever. the last one.
5.Jordin
6.Gina
7.Haley
8.Alexandira
9.Antonella (worst singer, but personality goes a long way ;)
10.Leslie

For the guys I'd go
1.Phil
2.Brandon
3.Fat Chris
4.Blake
5.little geek everyone liked so much I have no idea why
6.AJ (not that there's anything wrong with that
7.Jared
8.Sundance
9.NIck
10.Sunjaya

Sunjaya and Leslie are just painful to watch. Does anyone else think she lied about her age? I think she's more like 29 than 24.
