Hi Everyone!
We promised to keep yall updated on our new projects, so I thought I would share my latest podcast endeavor.
One of the shows I always enjoyed (and in fact created a podcast for in the past) was Heroes. This week they are rebooting the series starting five years after the events of the previous series and calling it Heroes Reborn.
At first I was skeptical, but I went to watch the webisode prequel online called Dark Matters and loved the premise. So, we got our The 9th: Heroescast group together, well a few of the group, and started a new podcast.
It will be mostly a roundtable discussion of the show with feedback and news we hear, but if you are interested in the show please come and listen/join in with us.
Thanks!
Miranda
Good luck with the new podcast Miranda!
Thank you!
I have been a big fan of yours Miranda. I loved your work on the Signal. I have been, for several months, on a Joss Whedon Marathon, gone through Firefly, Serenity, all 7 seasons of Buffy, so far on the second season of Doll House and fifth season of Angel. And of course caught up with Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. That said, I haven’t had time to watch Heros but I am planing on putting that at the front of my list to start watching. I would definitely want to get your pod cast. However would you recommend I wait till I get caught up to avoid spoilers?
Hi! Thank you for your kind words 🙂
It’s not necessary to have seen the whole series before watching Heroes Reborn… but you will definitely be spoiled on events of the original series if you listen to the podcast or watch the reboot first.
My recommendation of you want to get to the new series soon is to watch the first season of the original and the last episode of season 4. Though you will miss a lot of details doing that it will prepare you for the new series.
We will undoubtedly talked about connections to the first incarnation so if you want to stay strictly spoiler free, hold off. I’m going to link all the original episodes of the show back up to iTunes.
Check out the website this weekend because I should have them all up by then… That way you can listen and follow along with our old episodes as you catch up.
🙂
Shiny and thanks! I am going to try and wrap up Angel and Doll House (which by the way has almost become my favorite Joss Whedon show besides Firefly and Buffy), this week and start in on Heroes. If it is as good as everyone is saying I may be watching at least 3-4 shows a night. Won’t take long to catch up.
Super Shiny!
Loved S1 of Heroes, started to be unsure with S2 and kinda fell out of love with it quickly therafter – which was a shame because it had started so well. Hopefuly the new show will not repeat some of the problems that the original developed for whatever reasons.
Great to hear the Heroescast will be returning 🙂
Now, if only Joss would re-boot Firefly….. 🙂

I’m with Nick. The first season of the show was good. But after that, for me at least, the show went right downhill.
I agree I loved the first season… The writers strike didn’t help its second but I enjoyed it until the middle of the last season 🙂 This new version should harken a bit back to the feel of the first season – with a little more action
Looks like I may be able to by up to speed faster then I thought. I was planning on just watching the first show tonight, see what I think. Six shows later…..before I forced myself to stop. Great show makes me wish I hadn’t missed it when it was out. But I like doing these downloads. I can watch many shows at a time.
Looks like I should have typed this after I got some sleep. The first line should have been “Looks like I may be able to get up to speed faster then I thought”. That should make more sense.
