The best new show of 2006 has to be Heroes on NBC. It is a cool and interesting take on the movies X-Men and Unbreakable. Ordinary people are discovering they have superpowers and that they are up against an unseen adversary. There are no capes and costumes to be found and both the story arcs and characters are excellent.

Although I like shows like Battlestar Galactica, Medium and Lost, Heroes is rapidly becoming the most enjoyable show on my TiVo schedule. I don’t really watch much television and TiVo makes it very easy for me to record new shows, then decide which ones to keep.

Anyway, Heroes is really a blast. But don’t take my word for it. NBC has made it available for everyone to get caught up with its biggest hit show. Just click on the link below and you can watch all the episodes of the first season (so far) in chronological order - for FREE.

They just took a break at the season halfway point and new episodes will be returning on January 22. But until then, you can enjoy all the coolness of the best sci-fi/fantasy genre show on network television.
