Give me the right, I will set it all light

I am rather intrigued by Heroes. Especially the way they're playing out this idea of giving people powers to save the world and it all going so wrong because people (unless they're extraordinarily selfless, morally superior losers) can't handle this kind of thing without going crazy / power-hungry / self-righteous. I really liked the introduction of kind-of-sweet Scott drawling about Irayaq and how he would have wanted to save more people, and then that terrible glimpse at the end of what they've unleashed. And even if Arthur is now rilly rilly dead (which, let's face it, is unlikely), we can still go back to Nathan as the villain-who-thinks-he's-the-good-guy, yay!
Not enjoying Sylar's reconversion to killerdom so much, but we'll see what they do with him in the eps to come.

Oh yeah, and House is still cool, but argh argh, why can't they just make things happen for once? Why does every tiny plot point have to be drawn out over at least ten episodes? Okay, we get it about House and Cuddy. And yeah, he's completely antisocial and can't start a relationship in the normal way, and she's also pretty weird, yadda yadda. Still. It's getting boring. I want to see some romance, goddammit. (And not of the VeryAttractiveThirteen/VeryUnattractiveForeman variety, thankyouverymuch.)
