Hm. Maybe this white-washing of the cast has contributed to why the show sucks so much now.

This shirt is hilarious!
As of tomorrow night, I will officially be three episodes behind on BSG. And, I think I’m three episodes behind on Heroes too. Frak! When’s a boy supposed to watch his sci-fi?!
See all the Super Bowl ads on Hulu.
More after the jump.

Leave it to one of the biggest Trekkies in the world (Christian) to find these and send them my way. Enjoy:

And this one isn’t Star Trek, but it’s from the same post. It’s Zachary Quinto spoofing his own character on Heroes:
I love Cracked.com. They have me LOLing on a regular basis. Check out their recent post: If Everything in Life Came with Warning Labels. A few fun examples:

Do you watch Heroes and love it? Are you a long-time X-Men fanboy? If the answer to both of these questions is, “Hell yes!,” then you’re going to love this post over at Unreality Magazine.
They pair off characters from the hit show Heroes with X-Men members. The commentary is hilarious. The pair offs include:
Claire vs. Wolverine
Tracy vs. Iceman
Hiro vs. Nightcrawler
Matt vs. Professor X
Nathan vs. Angel
Super Mohinder vs. Beast
Meredith vs. Pyro
Arthur Petrelli vs. Rogue
Sylar vs. Mageneto
Peter vs. Phoenix

I watched Heroes religiously last year. Unfortunately now that Heroes isn’t on iTunes, I haven’t kept up with the this season’s episodes. The only reason for this is that watching the episodes on NBC.com is a horrible experience.
Imagine my delight, then, in being able to dive into the world of Heroes in a completely different way. DC Comics recently released it’s first print collection of the web comics. Because I had never followed the web comics, I was looking forward to reading these new Heroes stories. I tried reading the first web comic online, but just didn’t find the online experience to be satisfying. There’s something altogether different and satisfying about reading them in a printed book, though!
The trade is a nice hard-bound book with stunning artwork on the jacket. All of the first season characters are depicted in a beautiful collage. The only unfortunate artistic renderings are Claire (Hayden Panetierre) and Peter (Milo Ventimiglia). Peter looks fat and Claire casts an out-of-character ominous look.
