One of my mom's co-workers bought season 1 of "Heroes" for her! Because Mom's been covering for everybody and working extra and wasn't that nice?

That, and she's apparently the only person in Mom's office who watches "Heroes" and she and Mom are "Grey's Anatomy" buddies, and she wants Mom to watch "Heroes" so she will have someone to talk to.

The very nice side-effect is that *I* finally--FINALLY--get to see this show!!

Have spent my Saturday, thus far, watching the first 4 episodes.

I have these things to say:

OMG MILO VENTIMIGLIA *IS* MY DICK GRAYSON. Could not be more so. Dear god. And that casting choice was made when I didn't know who the hell he was.

Also--JEPH LOEB!!!! WRITES THIS SHOW!!! zoe_chan!!! JEPH LOEB.

And Tim Sale does the art, all the paintings.

I... that's really all I've got. I had to flail a little over the Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale thing. Because Mom and my brother (who apparently watches this religiously, GO FIGURE) didn't understand why I squeaked and pointed and made noises when I saw "Written by Jeph Loeb."

Hush, people. HUSH.

And Hiro *is* ridiculously cute in his geekery. He told Ando he learned about the time/space continuum from X-Men #143! ISSUE NUMBER, FOR THE WIN!
