Woo-hoo

The best show currently on television returns tonight. I plan to be parked in front of the glowing monster at 9 p.m. Eastern Time.

For unfathomable reasons, this moment has crept up on me and - despite the fact that I was giddy as the proverbial schoolgirl every week Heroes was on last winter and spring - I'm not overly excited about its return.

Perhaps it's merely skepticism that the quality can be maintained over a second season, and once 10 p.m. rolls around, I'll be salivating again. Time, as always, will tell.
