do i have any right to call buffy a cringe show when im currently browsing old heroes sylar/peter fanfiction?
yeah
#ohh you talk about a cringe show? the writers strike of 2007 to 2008 fucked heroes HARD#season 1 is a good and engaging television. seasons 2 to 4 are a trainwreck in slow motion#and honestly the only reason people kept watching was because of sylar. and the show was paaainfully aware of that#an exercise in beating a horse to death#and i watched. i watched those terrible seasons. because zachary quinto causes pussy derangement#and im not ashamed. have you fucking seen that man#anyways. season 1 is good#at least as far as i remember. the actors are great. and the editing/score is very good#iits very like. gripping#i think season 1 of heroes was the Peak of that genre of television that happened when LOST was popular#that genre being We Wanna Be LOST So Baaaaad#i saw heroes before lost btw#but looking back and having rewatched heroes since. it's so got that lost copycat vibe#in a good way! during season one!#large ensemble cast of fucked up people#and theres mysteries and intrigue and everybody is connected. it's great#also heroes does something i consider fucking inspired: when they change the scene to somebody else#theres text at the bottom telling the audience which character(s) we're focusing on (and their location)#its their version of an establishing shot and i really like it. it's simple but effective. and helps one keep track of everybody#heroes turned out bad but to anybody who has seen it: when you start the show and you hear that weird wail singing#mohinder's narration all like ''where do we come from?'' over shots of several of our characters#don't tell me you don't feel chills
