Heroes Reborn Episode 11 Review – ‘Send in the Clones’
Tai Freligh reviews the eleventh episode of Heroes Reborn, ‘Send in the Clones’… So this week’s episode of Heroes Reborn was the first one back after the mid-season finale. It was a doozy as the stakes were ramped up. In case you didn’t remember what happened in the first ten episodes before the break (that was […]
Heroes Reborn Episode 7 Review – ‘June 13- Part 1’
Tai Freligh reviews episode 7 of Heroes Reborn, ‘June 13 – Part 1’… This was my favourite episode of the entire Heroes Reborn series by far and earns my first 10 out of 10 rating.

Heroes Reborn Episode 8 Review – ‘June 13 Part Two’
Tai Freligh reviews episode 8 of Heroes Reborn, ‘June 13 – Part Two’… This week’s Heroes Reborn was another very satisfying installment, bringing a lot of answers to questions raised last week, but also to some questions raised since the beginning of the season as well as some “new” old faces to the franchise.

Heroes Reborn Episode 4 Review – ‘The Needs of Many’
Tai Freligh reviews episode 4 of Heroes Reborn, ‘The Needs of Many’… Heroes Reborn has settled into a groove of seven distinct character arcs- Tommy/Emily, Luke/Joanne, HRG/Quentin, Miko/Ren, Carlos/Oscar, Malina/Farah, and Erica Kravid/Mr. Harris. We move through all the storylines in a rapid fashion, jumping back and forth between all the characters and keeping the action going […]
Heroes Reborn Series Finale Review – ‘Project Reborn’
Tai Freligh reviews the thirteenth and final episode of Heroes Reborn, ‘Project Reborn’… So this week’s episode was the finale and to say it completely jumped the shark would be an understatement. I can’t help but feel like the writers didn’t plan out the entire thirteen episode arc because there were a few dragging episodes and then […]
Heroes Reborn Episode 12 Review – ‘Company Woman’
Tai Freligh reviews the twelfth and penultimate episode of Heroes Reborn, ‘Company Woman’… So this week’s episode of Heroes Reborn was the last one before the season finale (and no, there won’t be another season of HR as confirmed by NBC) and I really wanted it to be chock-full of action and adventure. Entitled ‘Company Woman’, […]
NBC cancels Heroes Reborn
For the second time, NBC has swung the axe on Heroes, with NBC Entertainment chairman Bob Greenblatt revealing at the Television Critics Association winter press tour that Heroes Reborn will not return for a second season. “That was always the plan, unless [creator Tim Kring] woke up one day and said, ‘Oh, I have another […]
Heroes Reborn Episode 9 Review – ‘11:53 to Odessa’
Tai Freligh reviews the tenth episode of Heroes Reborn, ‘11:53 to Odessa’… So this week’s episode of Heroes Reborn was the mid-season finale.

Heroes Reborn Episode 9 Review – ‘Sundae, Bloody Sundae’
Tai Freligh reviews episode 9 of Heroes Reborn, ‘Sundae, Bloody Sundae’… This week’s episode of Heroes Reborn picks up the threads that were missing from the two-parter.
