I don’t want to say that this episode of Heroes was boring, because it wasn’t. For the most part I was entertained through the whole hour. With that being said, however, it seemed like the events of this episode were more of a “mean” than an “end.” I think that this installment was setting up […]
Trauma started off strong in the Pilot, and has been picking up steam since then. The ratings haven’t been so strong, but it does face some tough competition in Dancing with the Stars, Lie to Me, and the CBS comedies (Big Bang Theory, and that other one). And, well, its on NBC, and people hate […]
