So next week you’ve got “24″ up against “Heroes” Mondays at 9. That’s a tough call: One show has a bunch of people doing fantastical things to save the world, bending time and space and breaking the laws of nature. And the other show is “Heroes.”

But I kid the Bauer. During the 4 hour premiere a terrorist does make the 48 miles from Palmdale to Valencia in 9 minutes, but other than that and a few hundred other impossibilities, it was a superb premiere for what looks like a fantastic sixth season.
