    Just a heads up for anyone who has yet to start watching Heroes.

    You have another chance to see the first episode on Channel 6 this Thursday at 9.30.

    Also... nice to see Channel 6 to take out some banner adverts on boards.ie.

    Ive been telling all my friends all week to watch it on Thursday. It really is the best out there at the moment.

    Did anyone see the big write up in the Sun today where in the headline they said "RTE's new drama Heroes" but in the bottom part of the page said the times for channel 6. Id say channel 6 are none too pleased.

    Fair play to Channel 6, you wouldn't see RTE doing this....they never seem to show anything Sci Fi related and if they do (like with Stargate) they show it at like 1am on a weekday and then cancel it due to lack of ratings.

    Imagine that! :rolleyes:

    I'm pretty sure it's a double episode.

    Perhaps some of you will be interested to know that Channel 6 broadcast in 16:9 aspect ratio which is Widescreen. Sci-Fi only broadcast in 4:3. It might not mean much to some, but I prefer to be able to see those extra wide camera angles.

    I thought this looked fairly crap. I only saw stuff about this show a few days ago, never heard of it before then. I have to say I am pleasantly supprised I missed the first hour and a half to night, are they important does it matter that I missed them, this seems to be up there with the likes of lost. Also for NTL cable subscribers is it only on channel 6??

    If you missed them it looks like those two episodes are repeated on Saturday evening at 8pm on Channel 6.

    Anyone else catch their advertising campaign at Tara St. DART station? They had a bunch of girls in cheerleader outfits handing out flyers. Save the cheerleader, save the world :)

    They had people handing out leaflets in Waterford as well. Like Sci-Fi UK, they certainly seem to be going for it for this show! It's refreshing to see stations have so much faith in a show, especially one as exciting and refreshing as Heroes!

    Good show, very well done.

    I wasn't fullly watching the whole 2 episodes so I got a bit lost, but I will be tuning in to see the next episode in full.

    When is the DVD available?

    Far play to channel six for get so much publicity for the show. A two page spread in the RTE Guide???? amazing don't think TV3 has ever got that.

    nice site http://www.channel6.ie/shows/Heroes/index.whtm

    Well the series isn't over yet and won't be for another 10 weeks in the US so expect to see a DVD sometime during the Summer albeit it will be Region 1.

    No sign of it at all on Play International or amazon.com so could be sometime before they bother putting it on DVD.
