Comment: I can't lie and say I loved this show from the very beginning. I did not. In fact, after the pilot episode I gave up, until this year when I caught season 3 episodes and it made me realize I've been missing an amazing show. So amazing I had to rent every Heroes DVD and request both seasons 1 & 2 dvd sets. I still wasn't crazy about the Pilot when I saw it again recently, but I loved the realistic approach to super-heroes.
I'm a big fan of Smallville so no surprise Heroes won me over. There are lots of characters and many of them are very likeable. So many in fact that I can't pick ONE favorite because a lot of them are my favorites - like Hiro who can teleport through time and space and make me laugh every episode along with his human side-kick Ando, Claire Bennett who heals from anything like Wolverine, Peter (who could copy any powers of a super-human he comes into contact with) & Nathan (who can fly) brothers with powers, but different viewpoints, there's Matt the psychic cop/part time F.B.I agent who is trying to find out what happened to him and others like him who have suddenly become more than human. there's Nikki/Jennifer who are sisters one good and one bad, one dead and one alive but they switch places when they "see" each other in mirrors and reflective objects, there's Angela Petrelli, the manipulative mother of the Petrelli brothers (Nathan and Peter), there's Mikah, Nikki's son who can control machines, there's DL the husband of Nikki and father of Mikah who can become intangible and walk through walls Finally, there is HRG the cunning, manipulative "father" of Claire and Sylar the show's version of Lex Luthor who kills to take other people's powers.. The stories are fantastic and in this first season this show brought a positive vibe that many tv shows lack these days (heck even Heroes has become a "dark" and brooding show).
If you've never seen Heroes you don't know what you are missing. There are those fans that think the show has declined, but I think it gets better every week. I'm glad I finally started watching this show and now buy it on dvd. It's already become my favorite show. I suggest you rent it first but if you come to love it like I do you will not regret buying these dvds. Speaking of the dvds, there are so many commentaries with cast & crew that those of you who love commentaries (like I do) will love these dvds.

Summary: Excellent Series
Comment: I will start by saying that I am biased -- I liked comic books as a kids, watched all sorts of cartoons on Saturday mornings, and dressed up as various heroes for Halloween. Obviously, I enjoyed this season of Heroes quite a bit.
My wife, on the other hand, has no such predispositons and generally does NOT enjoy anything superhero, science fiction or computer-related. We heard a lot about the show, but did not watch it until we purchased the DVD set -- then we watched the episodes three or four at a time. The story is just that good. (We would have watched more, but we have jobs, kids, and other responsibiliies)
If you don't buy it, rent it... in this case, the show is worth the hype.

Summary: A Matter of Opinion
Comment: I watched the first episode of Heroes, and while it was well made with very good acting, I came away with a less than positive view of this program. The producers seem to strongly promote the theory of evolution, mildly promote teen suicidal attempts, etc. In general, if you're looking for a good sci-fi with high morals, and some family values more like Smallville promotes, you might would rather watch, well... Smallville. I'm selling my Heroes set.
