This:
http://www.scifiuk.com/heroes/
I'm surprised noone else has mentioned it yet!
-
Maybe. I've found that superhero stuff doesn't translate well to TV though so I'll wait and see
-
Friend at work gave me a few episodes on naughty american download. Seems pretty good. It has a nice slow start and intro to each of the characters rather than the zero-to-lycra-clad-hero in 5 mins approach of the movies. I am planning on watching it.
-
when's it on?

The website tells you when it's on - you can watch the first episode on broadband now! I enjoyed it :)
Monday night SciFi is showing both the first two episodes, from 10.

Also at one point someone says "Thanks for the help Sulu" to his character's son.... ;D

So where are people downloading it from?
Also, now that we've lost Sky1, where can we download Battlestar Galactica from?

Well short of "doing a Hiro" jumping forward to June and record from BBC 2 (apparently) you could try.....
Newsgroups (a.k.a. USENET) (http://www.slyck.com/ng.php)
...and ditto...
-
If you don't mind torrents http://thesprawl.se/ is a good place to check for American shows :)
-
For those who are grabbing it from the Yanks the series starts again on the 23rd ;)
-
*rubs hands with glee* ;D had this noted down, darn silly Americans TV companies with their mid-season breaks
-
Wait is nearly over.....
get to find out what happens....
*uncontrolable shaking returns*
-
Heroes?? Haven't seen it. Is it like Time Team meets Doctor Who, with a sort of mutant time travelling Tony Robinson?

Seen it now. Dear god it is getting even better. Eagerly awaiting more. The director says he will round up the story in season1 so he can tell a new story with a (mostly) new cast next season. We are up to e19 so based on american averages that makes 3-5 more epis to go.
It is gonna get action packed

Season 2 starts to air on September 24th in the States ;D

Already waiting and saved up the credits to DL from a new site. Friend of mine says she can get an episode in 9 mins from it.
*Sooooooooooooooooo Excited*

Oh and another point...
During the hiatus this season the will be showing 'Heroes origins' the stories willl show a totally seperate character and then we get to vote for the one who will appear in S3.
Rumors are Kevin Smith (Mallrats, Dogma, Clerks, etc) is to direct.
Wonder what powers Jay & silent bob will have...

It's airing in the States at the moment so we probably won't see it for a couple of months. If you're impatient you can get it on Torrent ( http://thesprawl.se/frontpage.php is where I go) or newsgroups - alt.binaries.tv and alt.binaries.multimedia both have it.....
Failing that pop on over with a USB key ;)
-
season 2 shows at 9pm EST. (so about 2am on tuesdayt mornings. Various sites have it up by tuesmornings. (means I can DL while at work.)
-
I've just bought the first series Region 1 (heroes) - I can share if anybody wants it in about 6 weeks
Mark
-
Just out on interest, how is everyone getting this and where from? I tend to get it torrented from thesprawl but it's realy slow, has anyone found anything a little quicker like a site hosting it or something? Seriously prison break and heroes took me like 16 hours and i'm running a pretty good connection
-
Unfortunately it all seems to be a bit random. Trying to download 90Mb files on Saturday, 6 completed in 10 minutes each and one took 45 :( If you have a firewall (and you really, really should) check your torrent client docs and make sure the ports are open for it.
I use Bitlord (http://www.bitlord.com/)as a torrent client and that has a good built in search engine, you could also try Pirate Bay thepiratebay.org/ if moon's in the right phase and they're up this week ;)
-
Well I use bitlord too and have AVG but the sources I find are usually pretty slow, so I figured someone may know a website somewhere that gets better/faster sources. I usually hit about 17kb/s at most
-
Don't think so - that's why P2P is my second option for downloading watchable stuff :(
First choice is to pay a small monthly sub and sign up for a newsgroup service like Giganews (http://www.giganews.com/?gclid=CN-EvqGE8I4CFSR6EAod9xI-LA) and use it in conjunction with Newzbin (http://www.newzbin.com/) indexing service
-
My mate swears by revolutionTT for getting the episodes fast. So that may be worth checking out.
-
Currently using uTorrent (one of the sites I use doesn't like bittorrent) and from http://www.tvtorrents.com/ (http://www.tvtorrents.com/) (this one is currently having hardware issues and althought the torrents are fine getting on the sites can be a bit diff. You will need to get some credits to start using it) and http://www.xtvi.com/ (http://www.xtvi.com/)

Mags
I am happy to lend u my heroes in a few weeks if u like.

We're talking about brand new ones matey, I already have all of season 1 and (eventually) the first 2 episodes of season 2 but I was looking for a faster way to get them (since the heroes second episode of season 2 took 36 hours to come down). It's ok though, because apparently the problem is that they are digging up wires locally and they are upgrading my connection which both mean I have bugger all DL speeds
-
Ewwww - roadworks suck :(
-
Currently using tvtorrents i get an epi in about 2hrs. My friend has a record of 4mins using it. Damn her and her silly high meg line!
-
Ok I will give Swifty's site a go though I need to know what hell credits are, how I earn them (since you cant get to the FaQ unless your a member) and if you can give me a invitation code so you get some credits or something.
