The television series Heroes opens with a character dreaming of leaving his (forgive me) pedestrian world behind and being a person with great power, and what's the power he dreams of?
Flight.
Who can't see themselves in that?
This is why Heroes sucks - it started out so well, tapping this universal vein. And now it keeps tromping over the same ground again and again. Except for anything approaching a sense of wonder or magic.
