It means if you have them all on file, you need to watch them all ina row to experience any storyline. Unlike say Battlestar or other shows that have many shows that are isolated storylines in themselves.

Consequently Heroes is far more addictive, but is also I'd imagine, more loathed.
No, it's actually quite loved. Get some patience there, honey bunch. It was an awesome show, and I know you'll be there in front of it Jan. 21 when the new episodes start. And as for the complaint about watching them all in a row, they're all available for free on nbc.com, along with a rocking comic book.

It seems the complaint vis-a-vis WoW is that it's too fun. I've never heard a more retarded argument against a video game. If they didn't make it "addictive" we'd score it a 3/5 on GameSpy and call it trash.

I can't believe how many of you people, my supposed fellow gamers, the fellow geeks of the world... the "s-m-r-t" guys... are just stupid. It saddens me. I'm going to cry now.
