Plus a killer cast should make it a surefire hit. But none of these shows garnished the pure mystery that Heroes had going for it all the way to the end of the pilot. The misfit one with Courtney Cox was an old favorite. And I've been around to check these shows out. The premise of super-humans has been done before and most recently in Mutant X. Luca Gruenewald ( Jürgen Prochnow).I first saw the teaser commercial for Heroes at the end of Medium's last season and started salivating. Discovered and pursued, the Allies make a series of hair-breadth escapes from vastly superior numbers of well-armed Nazi soldiers and finally make contact with a woman named Kestrel (Melia Kreiling), their link to the bomb and to the scientist Dr. There, they are joined by escaped British airman Brent Willoughby ( Vinnie Jones) and Red Army soldier Ivan Pozarsky ( Dimitri Diatchenko). With their sergeant and other NCOs dead, the youngest of the soldiers, Nate Burrows ( Chad Michael Collins) and Dean Ransom ( Tom Sizemore) a cook who had been demoted from Lieutenant after the D-Day landings lead them deep into Nazi territory. The American agent, knowing that he is near death, asks the soldiers to complete his mission: to find the bomb, disable it, and extract the scientist developing it who wishes to defect. They come across an American OSS agent suffering from horrific burn wounds, and learn that the Germans are close to development of a super-bomb which will enable them to turn the tide of war and achieve victory. Surprisingly, this site is in Heidenfeld, Thuringia in Germany, although their own lines are hundreds of kilometers away in Belgium. En route, they stumble across a German experimental site, still smoldering with flames from some devastating event. After a fierce firefight, the Americans escape and try to make their way back to their own lines to report the German surge. With the Germans apparently near defeat in the latter part of World War II, a squad of American soldiers from the 2nd Infantry Division on a routine mission near Elsenborn in the Belgian Ardennes encounter a surprisingly strong German tank destroyer and infantry force.
