The REAL Heroes TV Show

If you like Heroes and you've missed The 4400 on USA network you don't know what a real Superhero show is all about. Here is my brief summary so you can start watching NOW...
  • 4400 missing people from the last 100 years suddenly reappear in a flash of light near Seattle.
  • These people begin exhibiting superpowers.
  • A government agency is created to track and control the group.
  • One of the two main agents has a son that is a 4400.
  • One 4400 (Jordon Collier) starts a group to help 4400 defend themselves against an increasingly hostile governement and public.
  • He's killed.
  • Agents son, who has the power to heal, takes over the organization.
  • Ex-leader rises from the dead and comes back as the 4400 messiah and vows to take them to the promised land.
  • The government isolates the chemical that causes the 4400 power and finds it's odds of working in a normal person is 50-50. 50% get powers, 50% die.
  • Jordon steals the chemical and starts passing it out to the general public with the plan to have 4400's come to power in the world. They set up a "fort" in Seattle. When the government moves in to take them out with chemically powered soldiers the 4400 defeat them and expand the boundaries of their zone. "Everytime you move against us we will expand."
  • Agents son thinks this is wrong and forms a group of 4400 to oppose Jordon and develop a test to see who will die from the chemical. He thinks the 4400 must live in cooperation with the regular population and a 50% death rate is unacceptable.
  • BIG THING: It seems the 4400 were taken from a group in the future who live in a war ravaged world. They kidnapped and created the superpowered people and sent them back to 2002, a pivotal year, to stop certain things from happening and change the future for the better. However, there is a group in the future who is in charge of the new world and wants to stop things from changing. They have captured 7 current people ("the marked"), taken them to the future and injected them with microscopic machines which over the course of a short time allow for them to be controled by the future. One of our main agents has just become a sleeper agent.
  • Jordan has been captured and been injected with the sleeper agent nano-tech.
  • One guy develops the power to spread the chemical as a virus. All of Seattle is infected, half are dying half are developing power. Seattle drops into chaos.
  • The government is forced to ask Jordans group to use their powers to provide security until a cure is found.
  • A cure is found. The virus is stopped.
  • Jordan's group refuses to give up power and takes over Seattle.
  • All the agents that were exposed to the virus and surived, most the main characters, now have superpowers.
  • WATCH THIS SHOW!
