Great to see Heroes Reborn is finally coming to us non-BT TV folks. Starts 9pm Tuesday 16th Feb on 5* (5star). 

It's had mixed reviews and there will be no season 2 but I'm fan of the original so will be adding this to my TV viewing. We are also getting the prequel webisodes as well so all good ... Gonna miss the cheerleader tho!

Hi @Andy

You beat me to it this is going in next week's update. I would usually do an update every two weeks, but because there is quite a bit has changed or appeared in the past few days TV schedule -wise. so I will have to do an update next week to keep up. The update will be released on Wednesday, as usual

With Gotham, X-Files and now Heroes Reborn the 5 group channels are keeping me happy!

Were you a fan of the original Heroes? It never quite managed to build on the great first season but I still enjoyed watching it. Never easy to do large ensemble storytelling.

Hi @Andy

I couldn't get in to the original heroes actually. I have watched the first few episodes, but I found the episodes slow going and lost interest. I believe it is on both Amazon and Netflix, so maybe I'll give it another go 

Gotham is brilliant as always. Gordon is in a bit of a tight spot now isn't it he 

I'll definitely be watching X-Files

I just wish the HD variants of the Channel 5 channels were available on freeview , but they're not

If it doesn't really grip you after the first few episodes of season one then it's probably not for you, I would say. I suspect The X-files is going to be the same for a lot of people, if they haven't watched and enjoyed the original run then I really can't see them making much headway with the new series.

I know what you mean about 5HD, I'm in the same boat with Freesat!

Guys

I don't like "Gotham", the first season really bored me and I just manage to stick with it for about six episodes, I've not been able to watch it since.

However, I started out not liking "Marvel's Agents of SHIELD" but, since my PC suffered a catastrophic crash last Saturday (30th January, approx. 1.30pm),  I decided to re-watch season one of SHIELD  (my son's DVD boxset) and, to my surprise, I really liked it.

As I slowly try to put my PC back together from (my poor) memory, I am now watching season 2 of SHIELD which again I am enjoying.

Looks like 'Gotham' personalities might not be compatible with 'SHIELD' personalities as whilst I watch SHIELD I'm not that bothered by it, whereas I love Gotham!

Wonder if you are a cat person or a dog person? I'm a dog person! 😉

@Andy

Hey, I have owned both cats and dogs in the past, BTW dogs are more loyal, but I'm easy as both serve their respective purposes. 

As for Gotham, I would expect Gotham PD to encounter more enhanced or meta human criminals but they don't.  Whereas SHIELD battles a range/variety of criminals, which makes the show more interesting, as well as the internal strife they continually face.

All in all, I SHIELD
