Fall TV Has Begun

This week has completed the end of the summer lull. The beginning of the end was the start of, what else, football season. We got around to watching the double episode premiere of Heroes last night, and I think we are in for a doozy. I won't go into specifics since you can watch both full episodes online. However, this year they are not wasting any time with slowly developing plots. Many questions from the first two (one and a half really) seasons are answered. If you like super heroes or sci-fi, you don't want to miss the boat on this one.

Until next time...

Did you think the title a little on the blasphemous side? Mom

Heroes?

No, I meant "The Second Coming." Mom

Ah. It didn't cross my mind at the time. The term is actually used a lot in comparing the present to the past, e.g. Tony Romo is the second coming of Johnny Unitas.

In the context of this episode, I would say that it is not blasphemous either as it has nothing to do with the second coming of Jesus. If the intent were to mock or spread falsehood, it would be a valid concern. However, it is one of many terms that has taken on other meanings as time has gone by.
