Did anyone catch this premiere?

Seemed like a solid show. I felt like they were trying too hard to emulate lost's format, and there were pretty cheesy parts, but it was good enough that I'm interested in watching next week's.

The villain seemed straight out of the secret world of alex mack, by the way.

Yeah watched it last night and wasn;t REALLY impressed but I'll keep watching. Seems like it's moving real fast though.

I was a little disappointed, but I had my hopes really really high for this show. It's still very good, and I'll definitely watch next week. But a lot of it feels like an X-Men knockoff (scientist who's studying "the next step in evolution," teleporter, psychic, healer...)

I was interested, gave it a few minutes. Just wasn't feeling it. Don't need another show like that. Lost, while good annoys me enough with all the fucking secrets. TV shows need to get to the point faster. I can't be watching 5 seasons of a show just to find out why everything is going on.

I d/l it last night, I'll watch it again - if only to see that mirror chick fuck some more dudes up.

Also, the Jap guy telling his friend that Aborigines can bend time and space is totally wrong. The only thing Abos can bend is wood, and then they throw the fucker.

I dug the way they made it seem like the younger brother could fly, only to... LOL have it be the older brother. Time will tell if the younger brother can also fly or whatever, but it was a nice twist.
Overall I thought the show was good. Whether or not I'll be up to watching all the time, I don't know. I'm bad at keeping up on TV shows. Like BattleStar G, I really like that show, but rarely catch it. - White man's burden I guess.

Episode 2 has be posted on Demoniod, I'm downloading now.

I don't think the younger brother will have any powers at all - he's the believer and the older one is the level headed cynic. I reckon the younger one will get jealous of his older brother and turn evil.

I just hate the villain. He just seems way too cartoon evil. Plus, the methods to indicate he's the bad guy are too cliché, like holding the shot on him for a long time after someone leaves the room as ominous music plays.

Other than that, I'm really enjoying the show.

From what I saw of the show (ie the Premiere) I liked it. What I didn't like is how they evolved everything into one episode and tried to have various subplots within that one airing.

But then again, the little girl from Remember the Titans has grown up alright. She's a babe. Final Destination girl would also get it too.

One final note, they totally ripped off X-Men and sodomized it. If they can at least acknowledge (and they made a reference to the comic in the first episode) then all will be well. It's funny too because before that X-Men cartoon on Fox, NBC ran an X-Men cartoon that lasted one episode but didn't go anywhere. Maybe they're trying to make up for lost time?

Lock Jaw
10-13-2006, 12:33 AM
I've liked the show so far...

But regarding the last episode... so if you didn't see it you should probably stop reading now if you don't want it spoiled....

Did they really have to cut Claire open like that? I mean... don't they do that when they want to find out the cause of death? I think in Claire's case the cause would be apparent (ie, big wooden stake embedded in her neck). On that note, geez... Claire is really clumsy. Everytime she falls down she breaks her neck or gets impaled with something. Must be tiresome.

Autopsies are mandatory in suspicious deaths.

Hey NBC, she's a cheerleader, WE GET IT. Does she have ANY OTHER clothes?

10-13-2006, 10:15 AM
So does that mean if she gets something in her brain, she "dies"? .. but not if she's gutted :?: ...know what I'm sayin'? Kind of odd that she'd revive by having the stick removed from her brain even though she's since been pulled apart by a coroner.
The Japanese guy is funny.

He seem to recall Ando saying he would teach Hiro some english last ep.

Lock Jaw
10-24-2006, 10:45 AM
Yeah but even so, he shouldn't be able to fully comprehend what people are saying, or be able to form such coherent sentences.

Plus later in the episode he goes bck to acting like he doesn't know English.

How about you pay attention next time..... When Hiro was on the train with Nathan, he said that he was from the future. That is why he had long hair and the soulpatch (along with the sword) and that is also why he spoke perfect english.

That's not what Lockjaw's talking about. He means the scene in the Diner where Nathan flew in. You're thinking of when he talked to Peter on the subway.

I think you should apologize to Lockjaw for your flippant tone.

YOUR Hero

I think it would be really good if characters that are main characters are killed. Keep you guessing. I mean come on TL reached into her chest and grabbed her heart, she should be dead.

Buzzkill
11-01-2006, 03:07 PM
Yeah I wish she was dead, I think it'd be an interesting and unexpected twist. D.L. = badass from hell, though

Well she's not dead.

I missed the last 15 minutes of the show. -What happened?

Ummmm the kid has super-powers where he can fix electronics, that Sylar guy's superpower is radiation, annnd I forget.

That wasn't Sylar, Joey.

YOUR Hero
11-07-2006, 10:57 PM
Yeah some dude I saw could burn things, radiation... and all that shit. Last night was the episode that was supposed to bring about the NY explosion, so it looks like it was the cop and his mind reading abilities that saved NY from the explosion. Or did you guys read it differently?

Yeah, good episode. Though I'm confused as to what Peter did that actually changed the future. Seems to me he didn't do much. (Other than fulfill his future seen in the painting)

But still... pretty good episode. Action oriented.

I also found out that the Haitian and DL are two seperate people. Thought they were the same guy. Not that I'm saying black people all look alike to me.

next week is:

"six months ago"

YOUR Hero
11-21-2006, 08:55 PM
Yeah, Hiro will be working on saving the waitress that can learn things super fast. I wonder if him doing this will change the future of the now, of what we just saw last night, since he'll (most likely) run in to Skyler.

Hope this episode next week isn't all Hiro however. Will probably be going back and forth between six months ago and now. Will it totally void this week's episode?

Hiro is awesome BTW.

YOUR Hero
11-27-2006, 06:27 PM
Yeah, I'm thinking in the end, since they've caught Skyler, that what Hiro does '6 months ago' will void (in your words) what we just saw.

YOUR Hero

Good stuff last night. Kinda like a prequel to alot of the stuff that was just there. It's like Sylar can take things apart, fix them, learn from them. I think what's happening is he dissects the brain, figures out the mutation and adds it to his being. At least that's what I'm getting from it. Patrelli can do it naturally, Sylar does it through dissection.

RoXer
11-28-2006, 02:25 PM

And good stuff so far.

Blitz
11-28-2006, 03:21 PM
Sylar is pretty cool.

Buzzkill
11-28-2006, 06:38 PM
So did Sylar have any powers to begin with I wonder, or did it just start with the telekinesis guy?

YOUR Hero
11-28-2006, 07:12 PM
Well I'm thinking his power was the ability to take (dissect) things apart and figure them out, like the watches. The more he worked on watches, the faster he could see a problem with them, fix them. Like when the doctor walked in and he saw the watch on his wrist and knew immediately that it was off by 2 seconds. I believe as he began learning from dissection and figuring out the powers that each had, he had the ability to make it his. Maybe he finds the soul in there or something as was proposed by the Doctor. Either way, he assumes their power, somehow, through the dissection process.

Blitz
11-28-2006, 09:34 PM
He seemed to have the power to hear when something wasn't functioning "properly".

Dunno how he seemingly gains their powers tho.

Avenger
11-28-2006, 09:38 PM
Great stuff. Last night's episode was brilliant.

Best episode yet.

The great thing about this show is that it allows you to think. It's not like Lost where you can consider all possibilities but they just change the story one week later, it's like the pieces are in front of us but we have to put them together. The clues are there, they are subtle, but they are there.

Better than Lost :o

I believe Patrelli can only use the powers of those that he is around. I don't think he can use them otherwise. But I got the same sort of feeling from Sylar. I think he "takes apart" their heads and learns their powers and he wants to become as powerful as possible so he's finding everyone and learning from them.

YOUR Hero
11-29-2006, 10:24 AM
Also, I'm beginning to think Nicky doesn't have powers. More that she's possessed by her dead sister. You know, not all these unique people have to have powers.

Also, I know Nathan absorbs other powers but has none himself and that that absorbed power goes away soon after he's out of contact with them. He so much as said so himself.

Kane Knight

I think he "takes apart" their heads and learns their powers and he wants to become as powerful as possible so he's finding everyone and learning from them.

Patrelli set his leg quite some time after the cheerleader left. I'm not sure if it was "just because," but it'd seem the duration is getting better.

People look at Sylar wrong. Sylar sees how things work. That's how he sees how things are broken. How that translates into being able to alter his own brain to adapt new powers, I'm not entirely sure, but he's apparently able to do so.

I don't think he needs to take things apart in any sense, I believe he has a natural understanding of what's right, and what's wrong.

Actually, I'm kind of hoping that he doesn't need to kill people to take their powers, because the "villain" from one of my series does the same thing...

YOUR Hero
12-02-2006, 09:21 PM
I was going to mention that Patrelli set his legs quite a bit after the cheerleader left, yeah... I like your concept on Sylar, but I do believe he has to get inside to figure it out, IE kill them.

Kane Knight
12-02-2006, 09:24 PM
Well, he figured out the problem before ever touching the watch...Or the PK.

12-02-2006, 09:29 PM

12-02-2006, 09:29 PM
Just seems a tad unnecessary.

Buzzkill
12-02-2006, 09:55 PM
He understands where the abnormality in the brain is. He removes it, then uses it himself.

Nikki definitely has powers...whether or not her split personality is a part of it, ripping people in half with your bare hands isn't that normal tbh

YOUR Hero
12-02-2006, 10:07 PM
Well, he figured out the problem before ever touching the watch...Or the PK.

But I think that's because he was a watch repair guy... I think over time, he might be able to see things instant like you say but remember, he got the cheerleaders wrong. He is fallible at this point.

AS for Nicky, I believe it's the dead sister that had the power and is using her living sister to do her deeds. (Is Nicky the dead sister or the living, I've become confused on which is which... name wise)

Kane Knight

But I think that's because he was a watch repair guy... I think over time, he might be able to see things instant like you say but remember, he got the cheerleaders wrong. He is fallible at this point.

He was able to analyse the PK without killing him. Didn't he explicitly say (I didn't record this, or I'd check) that he could see it in his brain? Prior to beaning the fucker? It's not just the watch that he was able to diagnose pre-dissection.

As for the Cheerleader? I made this comment to my buddy while watching it. I then said, "Then again, everyone else was sure she was the 'special' one, so why not just assume?"

He may be fallible, but he hardly had any reason to go scanning for her--she was big news. He may have simply been killing her so she wouldn't fight back--Not so much because he needed to. I'd imagine, since he killed the other guy with a speech that made it sound like he was gunning to kill all the Nova...Errrr...Heroes, that he's on a mission. And I bet it's easier to deal with them if he's not worrying about them fighting back. But he doesn't need to open them up to see the problem.

He may need to to assimilate the powers, but that's still unclear. And I hope not.

He may need to to assimilate the powers, but that's still unclear. And I hope not.The two girls were together, so if he could read the PK guy then how come he couldn't read the cheerleader?

I think he knew the PK because of Chandra's notes. He knew he could do something. He probably simply went to the guy and used the same reasoning that Chandra did with him and asked if he had any abnormal powers, telling the guy he could help him.

Kane Knight
12-03-2006, 09:08 AM
The two girls were together, so if he could read the PK guy then how come he couldn't read the cheerleader?

Who said he couldn't? In fact, I already addressed this, saying he probably didn't feel the need to.

And again, since I'm reiterating the rest of my point anyway, he said he could see the problem in his mind, did he not? Please, if this is contrary to your understanding, say so, but do not ignore my entire post. I'm checking for it now, on the webcast, but if anyone wants to save me the 50 minutes of time please, just say something to the contrary.

He was looking for something in the PK.

Now, you're gunning for the cheerleader with super powers, do you scan all the cheerleaders nearby, or do you go for the one on the news?

Kane Knight
12-03-2006, 09:20 AM
Yeah, rewatching, it's pretty explicit that he knows what's going on beforehand. HE doesn't say exactly what I thought he said, but he does say things that show off a knowledge and understanding before he does anything to the guy. On top of that, the scene flash is pretty clearly supposed to indicate it, as well.

YOUR Hero
12-03-2006, 01:48 PM
I don't know Kane, the other argument I would bring up is that Sylar killed the 'quick learning' girl, the waitress, instead of Hiro. No disrespect to her abilities, but if I were in his position, I would surely have killed Hiro before her. I still believe he doesn't know as much until he gets into their brain.
Also, he's using the Doctors notes to locate them, not just being drawn to them. All these things make me inclined to believe he's unclear who is who... at this point.

Kane Knight
12-03-2006, 01:59 PM
...Which affects my argument...How?

Kane Knight
12-03-2006, 02:00 PM
Referring primarily to this:

All these things make me inclined to believe he's unclear who is who... at this point.

Hell, my own posts all seem to imply that he has to actually LOOK to see a problem. If he's going off the Prof's notes, he's probably not going to scan. If he's not looking for them, he's not going to find them. He saw a flaw in the watch because he assumed that someone coming into his shop would have a watch problem. He saw a "flaw" in the PK because he was looking for it. He didn't see Hiro as a Quantum Physics Benderer because he wasn't looking for a superhuman, or a Japanese quantum physics benderer.

Lock Jaw

It's obvious that Sylar eats brains.

I think we're saying the same thing in a different way. Although I do believe he has to get into their brains, at least at this point. The more powers he assumes, the more powerful he becomes (obviously) and would be able to recognize these people immediately at some point. Not so sure I'd say he eats them, but who knows.

I watch it with my daughter and she's like so engrossed into the show. At about the 50 minute mark of the last episode, she turned to me and said "I can't believe how this show just gets better and better". I've heard it said here too, and it's true. I really like the pace and development of this show. It's encouraging to me to see a show that's thought out. I'm sure it doesn't suit everyone, but I get that, what I'm really raving about is the depth of it.

Sure hope it's a trend of things to come for TV programs.

I think there's is something about Niki's future on the show, like she'll go over to the bad sideside for keeps, that's why they show the torment and the struggle so much. With Skyler, he's a bad guy without a complex and defined history. We've learned about him over time, but there aren't the layers there that Niki's character will bring about (imo) when she's all bad, all the time.

That's my thinking on it.

I'm guessing when he saw the Invisible man, he too became invisible? Or did when they touched/struggled, etc??

Nice way of coming up on Syler in the future ;)

YOUR Hero
01-25-2007, 10:07 AM

Goddamn, I love this show. I really, really do. Nearly every episode has some cool revelation, or a new character twist, or something explained. It really feels like it is continually moving forward towards a climax, not just going in circles.

About tonight's ep:

-I like Candice. Was only a matter of time before a shapeshifter showed up, and it helps that Missy Peregrym is really fucking sexy.

-Good on Mohinder for not being a complete sap and realizing who he was traveling with. Why he would be stupid enough to wait till he was awake to take the spinal sample and kill him, I'll never know.

-Linderman was badass, of course. What else would you expect from Malcolm McDowell.

-The revelation of Peter and Nathan's mom knowing what was going on was cool.

-Bennett is still the fucking man.

-I hate Nikki/Jessica. DL's cool, no problem with Micah, N/J annoys the shit out of me. Not the story, just the character.

-Glad Ando's not gone. He's great. Hiro/Ando in the future next ep I guess.

-I wish they'd introduce more superpowered villains. Although, I wouldn't be suprised to see that Linderman or Thompson had powers.

Some interesting stuff from the creator of the show about next season:

Tim Kring reveals: The upcoming second season will constitute a new volume in the multi-volume series, with new characters and an entirely new storyline. "If you remember, the opening of the pilot pronounced the episode as the beginning of Volume One," Kring said in an interview. "Volume One comes to a conclusion at the end of episode 23, and Volume Two starts with the opening of season two. And Volume Two is a different story." Kring added: "We could have new people and new storylines and new ideas and new threats and new bad guys and new heroes. So I would prepare the audience for that idea, that it's not just a continuing serialized storyline about only these people. It's a little more the 24 model than the Lost model." Kring also confirmed that some of the current heroes just might not survive this season, but added: "Many of your favorites will live to fight again.

I can't wait to see what happens between Peter and Sylar, seen as how it ended with Peter having his head sliced open.

Naw. Aside from the fact that the future seems partially written, we've seen him survive something as deadly before, and that was before he became Super Sponge!

Plus, if he ever wants to meet him, he can go back in time. I doubt Hiro will ever end up bothering, but still.

Mr Regal
04-24-2007, 02:47 PM
Hiro looked a little pissed off at himself at the end there, don't you think?

It will be interesting to see what happens with Sylar now that he can see the future.

So as I understand it Linderman is the boss of the company, yet he said people starting using their powers for personal gain in the group he was part of so it disbanded.

It looks like he and his company are the ones using powers for personal gain, and people like the invisible man are the ones who have woken up too this. Be interesting to see if they introduce any of these "elders" if you like.
