TV's Top 5!: The coolest little Heroes

by Elizabeth Chan, posted Jan 30th 2007 12:54PM

Heroes' MicahDarn those Heroes and their wacky superpowers. As we all know, money is the real power on this terrestrial ground, but let's leave the Bill Gates discussion for later. Even if you can walk through walls to try and convince your girl to leave the psych ward to help you be a better parent, that still won't help you put some ramen on the table.

Unless your superhuman powers are passed onto your son as seen on last night's episode of Heroes. Micah's frustration with D.L's inability to pack him a decent lunch box had forced him to exert his super powers, which turns out to be ATM hypnotism. Sheesh, I would have stopped feeding my kids sooner if it would make them do this. I wonder if we can borrow Micah for a day or so to zap away some school loans.

More after the jump!

Ok... so you disagree with me and think that it's not right to starve your kids to force them to manipulate ATMs. I reluctantly agree. Instead I will force a combination potty and piano training on my young son so he can be deemed a prodigy on Ellen just like 8-year-old Marc Yu who played a piano piece "ekspeshally" for him.

You think I'm being harsh? Just remember that there are a set of parents behind this man. I've never heard a parent complain "It's ridiculous, my kid is so rich he's like Bill Gates".

We can fantasize about superpowers on Heroes every Monday night, but that won't change who has all the power in this world. At least Jon Stewart recognized this and tried to get Gates' password. Score one for us mortals.

I can't wait to see how Micah's powers further develop and get used through-out the show. I have the feeling he's going to come to play a fairly important role in everything.

I'm also really interested to see how George Takei's character and Claire's biological mother get worked into the mix.

A lot has happened in 13 episodes and considering there are 10 or 11 more to come, who knows what will happen. I can't wait!

The thing is, couldnt DL just walk into a bank vault at night and take some cash just as easily?

Gag. First, the kid's powers were revealed long ago when he used a non-working paying phone to call his mother.

Second, that kid and his entire family need to die. Quickly. No, not slowly. They whine and complain so much that I just want them to die - offscreen. We'll see a newspaper clipping and never again must suffer through Ali Larter's awful acting or that ninny kid braying every episode.
