Arguably the most talked-about television show of the 2006-2007 season, the Emmy-nominated fantasy Heroes gives viewers blends comic book-style adventure with plotting and characters as rich and layered as any graphic novel or drama series. Creator Tim Kring's premise is deceptively simple ? ordinary individuals in locations around the globe discover that they have, for lack of a better term, super powers, and wrestle with this reality while facing challenges both global (the destruction of New York City, for one) and personal (indestructible cheerleader Hayden Panetierre has family issues ? serious ones, as the true identity of her adoptive father reveals; Milo Ventimiglia's Peter Petrelli, who absorbs other powers, must overcome his own insecurities). Add to this mix a terrific villain ? Zachary Quinto's Sylar, who hunts and kills people with extraordinary powers like our heroes ? and viewers have a riveting series that exhibits an almost-perfect balance of cliffhanger thrills (the action and special effects are truly impressive for a network program) and genuine drama that sets the show apart from most speculative fiction (save, perhaps, the revived Battlestar Galactica, which it compares too favorably). The seven-disc set of Heroes: Season One offers a wealth of extras for fans, who may be familiar with some of them through the NBC.com website, especially the cast commentaries, which are featured on half of the episodes. Kring is featured on the 73-minute uncut pilot episode, which for some viewers, may be even better than the network version; the main difference is the degree of character development, including an entire storyline for D.L. Hawkins that isn't featured in the broadcast version. Also on deck are some 50 deleted scenes from the episodes, several by-the-books making-of featurettes, including coverage of the special effects and stunt work, and a profile of artist Tim Sale, whose illustrations are used for Isaac Mendez's prophetic artwork. Prospective buyers should note that while all of these supplemental features are included on the HD-DVD version of this set, the special Web-connectivity elements are not available here. -- Paul Gaita

 Heroes Season 1 October 3, 2008
Great delivery and product as usual. This season was a good value for the money.
 heroes season one October 2, 2008
My wife and I both enjoyed watching Heroes season one very much. The product came to us in great condition, arrived within the dates given upon ordering the product, and we got a much better price on the item then we could have gotten at the stores in our area.
We very much liked the story lines within Heroes and the characters that were created by the writers. Look forwards to watching season three.
Heroes Season 1 on dvd October 1, 2008
If you are looking for a show with lots of action, this is the one! It actually has a little of everything... action, romance, sci fi and LOTS of twists! The writer really messes with the viewers' heads! It is really an amazing series. It's addictive! When you start watching... you won't want to stop! Then you get to the end of Season 2 and are sad because you have to wait for Season 3 to come out in dvd!
Heroes Season One is Phenomenal! September 30, 2008
