Fortunately the strange futuristic evolutionary tales of &#8220;Heroes&#8221; were filling the gap nicely.

Fortunately the strange futuristic evolutionary tales of &#8220;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroes_%28TV_series%29">Heroes</a>&#8221; were filling the gap nicely.</p>
<p>Similar to the genetically-modified characters of Dark Angel, the mutants of X-men, and also the returned &#8220;altered&#8221; people in the world of the 4400. This one concerns people who are developing new skills and talents .. the next step in human evolution. In the future, everyone will be Superman, Spidergirl .. Catwoman; able to use their own special powers for good .. or evil.</p>
<p>If i could have a superpower, i would definitely be able to fly. Save so much hassle at airports, and cut down on carbon footprint too.</p>
<p>Or maybe radiate peace and love from my heart into the world around me, so that people around me experience balance and a deep sense of personal safety. That would be cool.</p>
<p><em><strong><span style="color: #993300;">Give me comment please:<br />
<span style="color: #008000;">What would your superhuman power be?</span></span></strong></em></p>
<p>.</p>
<p>PS: when i came to Phnom Penh, all i really wanted to see was the rest of Season One. Fortunately Katie discovered the series and shared my fascination. We got through the whole 23 episodes in 3 days!! How outrageously self-indulgent.</p>
<p>Just a few loose threads in the plot at the end of it all ..</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many people know that i&#8217;ve spent the entire winter holed up in bed watching dvd of television programs. Yes it&#8217;s true, i watched</p>
<ul>
<li>the complete first season of Brothers and Sisters. Aaaagh.</li>
<li>the mighty boosh, season three</li>
<li>Torchwood, the Welsh spinoff from Doctor Who</li>
<li>a few episodes of the totally trashy American Gothic</li>
<li>Flight of the Conchords, again</li>
<li>re-runs of Firefly, Buffy ..</li>
</ul>
<p>Brothers and Sisters had me hooked from the start. Such compelling-ly mad characters. It was fun in B&amp;S watching Calista Flackheat and Rachel Griffiths&#8217; lips compete for whose could be the most wobbly due to puffy injections.</p>
<p>Mighty Boosh is of course beyond compare.</p>
<p>.. and now i&#8217;ve found something new, something i hadn&#8217;t seen before .. <strong>Life on Mars</strong>. Ooh it&#8217;s good. Unfortunately the first time round, the Movie Reel gave me disks 1 and 4 in the same case .. so i&#8217;ve had to wait for the next instalment.</p>
<p>American Gothic was strange, because it was promising .. but so disappointingly Lame. There&#8217;s one sheriff in town who rules the place with his mysterious psychic powers &#8211; and regular murdering &#8211; but somehow he doesn&#8217;t use his powers against the main heroes. The heroes are irritatingly pathetic. Not recommended.</p>
