No Heroics - Series 1 Page 5

Saw episode three last night and rather enjoyed it; theres something very likeable about it. Its not exactly hillarious, but it did make me laugh a few times. One of the better recent Brit sit-coms.

Mark Heap's in it next week! I'm Still enjoying it though. I also liked a line from last night's episode where Electro-Clash is in front of the Super Powers Authority and asks the man taking notes:

"What's your superpower?"
"Short hand."

Interesting, because I found it quite cold and the characters quite flat apart from Excelsior who's barely in it.

Though not hilarious and a bit flawed, I found this enjoyable to watch. Not something I would make an effort to see, but a pleasant way to spend half an hour.

Yeah, it's getting better, I think. Not outstanding but funny and watchable.

Just watched episode 4. Really loved it. The series is growing on me. James Lance is especially ace. Bravo to ITV2. :)

Does he get off with any boys at all? :)

I missed episode 4. Is it repeated?

No, but there's a very funny couple of scenes involving a pissy little prince!

Oh, the little Indian prince was hilarious. Mark Heap was good as always.

You can watch on itv.com by the way.

Enjoying this show. Remarkably uncontrived for a programme about super heroes. Always nice to see cast members from Nathan Barley as well.

I seriously hope this gets another series!

Well, did anyone else stick with this till the end? I rather enjoyed it and hope it gets another series.

I'm not overwhelmed and I often thought what a pity that they seemed to have settled for the obvious joke rather than think about it a bit longer and surprise the audience. I only watched it till the end cause I thought Timebomb was brilliant (and some of the guest characters).
