no heroics

Black Comedy about superheroes. Too bad I don't have ITV2.

Also, didn't PV (or was it someone else?) do one of his "minor superhero" stories about a man who could see 20 seconds into the future? While looking for it, I found this, which sort of covers the same ground from a more depressing point of view.

It was Vader. They were called "Superhero Lite," and they no longer seem to exist.

This is where my trail ran cold.

I just saw the first episode, and I wasn't very impressed. It might just be a case of "introduce all the characters in the first ep" syndrome, but it seemed to be determined to substitute a mixture of crude jokes and "ooh, goofy concept" for any semblance of a story. I may watch one more, just in case, but it doesn't look like your lack of ITV2 is causing much hardship.
