Hi! Sorry it took so long, but I was away from a computer when you friended me.

Your totally right about Heroes' ability to create some awesome team-ups. It's one of the best things about the show. Although, I'm always a bit sad when the teams break up.

Ashes to Ashes is good. I highly recommend it. I was pretty skeptical about it at first as well, but it feels like a different show from Life on Mars, so it doesn't feel like you've seen it all before. And, in fitting with the ending, Alex has read Sam's psychological assessment - so it's not like she's retreading his motions. Instead, she thinks she knows the rules.
