I fucking love this show. I will be downloading it every week from monday. I have already seen some clips from the new series. The Hiro story looks interesting.

Be interesting to see what happened to Pter and Nathan. The easy one would be that Nathan flew way up dropped Peter and flew to a safe distance, Peter would be able to heal after the explosion due to the healing powers he sponged off the Cheer leader! Then again they could just as easily suprise us and come up with something totally random.

I'll admit, I only recently started watching this about 2 weeks ago. My friend let me borrow Disc 1 on DVD and I ended up renting the last 5 from Blockbuster. I am for sure hooked on this season and cannot wait to see what is going to happen. The season finale last season was just amazing.

Nowhere Man

I was kinda disappointed in the premiere. Claire's been dropped into a high school that's virtually identical to the one from the first season (bitchy cheerleader, 'geeky' pretty-boy who wants her to admit that she's unique [only this guy can fly, apparently]), and Hiro is way too gullible about Kensei (didn't he learn his lesson about that with Nathan?) And Peter Petrelli has amnesia?! We spent the entire first season watching him learn how to use his powers, and now he's got to do it all over again. That just frustrates the hell out of me, because it feels like those three have just taken huge steps backward in terms of character.

It also made me sad that Mr. Nakamura got killed so easily, and that the new villain is doing the whole 'shadowy figure' bit exactly like Sylar. And I'm really not interested at all in the new characters so far.

On the plus side, I'm interested in the plague that Mohinder mentioned at the beginning of the episode, and his and Bennett's plan to bring down the company. The bits with Parkman and Molly were pretty good, too.

I'm sure the show will pick up again once they actually get the ball rolling on whatever the big plot is this season, but so far I wasn't really impressed.

YOUR Hero

I found the first episode lacked in umph, but that's also part of it's appeal. It builds slowly and methodically. I guess for the season premiere I expected a little somethin' - somethin' more.

This Mexican(?) girl could be very dynamic. She seems religious and yet kills indiscriminately, outside (it seems) of her control..

And it's such an original concept. Superheroes dying from a virus? OMG!

Wait, except it sounds just like aliens, mutants, and psychics contracting special issues that goes back some 70 years now.

If you're looking for originality these days, you'd better have amneisa. Otherwise, you're just gonna be disappointed.

Come to think of it, do we even know the virus is legit? Mohinder was, after all, trying to get inside the Corporation. Nobody else seems to be worried. And you'd think Seresh would have at least warned the ones he was still talking to.

Anyway, great intro.

Two things I want to add to this.

At first I thought Claire's pinky would not grow back.

2nd of all, I might be the only one in the world, but the way they play the Noah character, I still have some deep down thoughts that he is still up to something, working behind everyone's backs.

What Would Kevin Do?
10-08-2007, 02:30 AM
I don't think there's any real reason to believe that people who have similiar powers are related.... So I doubt Kensei is related to Claire... I mean, no one else within the bloodlines seem to share powers.

Also, apparently one popular belief is that Kensei will end up being the villian... I pray that's not true, because that'd be pretty lame IMO.

Also, not this season, but eventually, they need to turn Peter evil. In the end, I really want to see an extended Peter Vs Sylar showdown where Sylar IS the hero.

Kane Knight
10-08-2007, 12:42 PM
Yeah, you have Peter the Xerox MAchine and Claire the healer, who are both related to Nate the flyboy.

The Schizo and Phaser had a child who's a cyberkinetic.

The only relation that might suggest a family/genetic bond is Claire and her mother (Firestarter and girl who can heal from a fire), and that seems to be nothing more than a coincidence (And rather tenuous to boot), so I'd say the chracters don't need to be related to have similar powers.

There is something to be said for the Kensei connection, but I do hope it doesn't turn out he's the villain, all things considered. IT would make sense with his logo being used, but...

What Would Kevin Do?
10-08-2007, 06:57 PM
Oh yeah, Kensei could be related to Claire, or anyone just based on having powers. I just don't think he has to be related to Claire just because he can heal himself (which a decent amount of people on IMDB seem to think.)

You know what I really want to know? Does the Hatian have to actively think to make other's powers null, or does it happen automatically? Because the show makes it look both ways sometimes.

Splaya
10-09-2007, 01:40 AM
Tonight was great.

They really layed the groundwork for the rest of the season. Apparently the build is going to be focused on who is destined to kill Noah Bennett and will it actually go down. That's the focus for the Bennett family.

I'm curious as to how they will cure Nikki.

The Peter scene was key tonight. When she was kissing him, the tattoo changed to the "symbol of death". That makes me a lot more interested.

Last night's episode was really good. Although the illusionist girl was taken out too easily. Nikki was mind wrapped by her, yet she lets Sylar, whilst injured take her out so easy. However... perhaps she's messing with his mind yet.

Hiro may transport Kensei into the/a future and he may sire children. Thusly creating all sorts of bloodlines.

Seen the third ep downloading the 4th ep atm but has the peter plotline pissed anyone else off?

I hated how he didnt want to open the box because he was afraid that he didnt want to be who he used to be. Ughhh such a weak exuse..

Some of the characters storyline i dont think are as strong as last season. Claires is preety average with simmilar elements of her storyline last year and west is a horrible actor and has a horrible power (nathan already has it) and peter just seems like he is taking a few steps back. And the south american bro and sis are getting too much airtime.

But hiro's does seem enjoyable and mohinder and noah's storyline so far is awesome. I just hope that nathan gets more air time and an intresting plot and nikki storyline does out not to blow.

I like the Peter storyline. Not opening the box makes sense when you're happy (Or think you are). Or close to it.

I agree with the South American folks getting too much time, but I'm putting a bit of faith in Kring, since the first season didn't fuck up and delivered on all the storylines.

Now that they've picked up Sylar, I'm more interested. To be honest, though, I could care less. I'm mostly in it for the main storyline and Hiro's, which I'm pretty sure ties in well anyway.

Splaya

The Peter storyline has been great so far. I believe that something is brewing there.

Also, when it pertains to the South American folks, apparently from what I've read, Sylar is going to follow them for awhile, and then we are going to really find out why she is wanted for Homicido. From what I've heard, she is not the sweetheart we all have her pegged to be.

I thought at first that the Mexican storyline was annoying, but then I remembered that I thought the Niki/Micah/DL story last season was annoying and pointless, but Kring paid it off so well over the last few episodes of the season. Benefit of the doubt for a show that hasn't disappointed yet.

Yeah i guess but i mean how happy can he be. He has been in this new life for only a few days. He is shacking up with this girl he hardly knows and he is going to be a part time crook dosnt sound like that would satisfy peter from what we learnt about him last season.

And he probably still does, as you know he will inevitably open the box and/or regain his memories somehow. But for now, he doesn't remember what kind of a person he was and so is scared of finding out and just accepts the place he has found for himself in his current state, even if some little voice in the back of his head tells him it is wrong.

What if Claire kills him? Think about it, it might make the most sense. She is obviously falling in love with West and right now she despises her father for making her hide everything in her life. It would be a huge twist.

I knew Kensei was coming back, but right at the end of the episode? Next week's gonna explain everything hopefully since it's picking up from after Kirby Plaza. I'm pretty pumped, this is the most excited I've been all season since it's been a slow, but necessary start.

Splaya
11-05-2007, 11:48 PM
Yeah, but everything made sense tonight. They got rid of Caitlin in a smart yet sensible way. Kensei is looking for revenge, and I saw on a preview with NBC during Sunday Night Football. They said the next 5 episodes will bring them all together.

There was also a rumor going around that 3 regulars will die within these 5 episodes. Regardless of Claire or not, I do believe Nikki is going to die. I would say the other 2 are Nathan Petrelli and Noah. It just seems like it's going to happen. Also, does anyone else thing that they are going to finish the sequences of the 8 paintings by the end of these 5 episodes.


edit: I went back and looked at the episode cause I DVR'd it. Peter looking at all the dead bodies was picture 5 of 8. So there is indication that they will wrap it up on the last of the 5, and then leave us with some form of a cliffhanger.

That's what I remember reading/hearing anyway.

Yeah, tonight's episode was pivotal.

No. It was one of the weaker episodes of the season, and it did nothing to really follow up on the "big" ending of the previous show.

They utterly screwed up the Hatian's story. The timelime for him makes NO sense.

The entire Nicky, DL story wasn't needed. The was no real reason to show it (unless the murderer comes back later.). They could have left it at DL eventually dying from when Linderman shot him, and it wouldn't have made a difference.

I don't care about the twins without Sylar, and while the litle back info was nice, it could have been done much more quickly. You don't need to spend that much time showing what we more or less already know (that she accidentally kills innocent people.)

With that said, the parts with Kristen Bell were done well, as was the interaction between Peter and Adam. The explanation of how Nathan lived seemed a little rushed, but it worked.

They really should have done something with Sylar, or something better with the Hatian. There's a bunch of other things they could have done too. Granted they could still do these things later. However, for this show to follow essentially the most climatic episode of the season, it was a big letdown in my opinion. Certain parts didn't make sense, and a lot of it was just anticlimatic.

The way DL would have died in Lindermans office wouldn't have been Nikkis fault. He would have died protecting his family from someone else. This way it is all the fault of Nikki and her lame ass "power". Thus convincing her fully to go for the "cure". That's the way I read it anyway, made sense to me.

I quite liked the flash back episode, the mexican flash backs were completely pointless though, and i also was not really sure what the fuck was going on with the hatian. Apart from that it was good.

Tonight was the best episode of the season. The swerve with Mohinder shooting Noah was sweet, and Hiro's and Parkman's storylines are still awesome. I wish every episode would just focus on them plus Peter Petrelli. That way the plot still ties everything together without a bunch of loose ends with terrible storylines like Nikki's, the Twins, and that girl who can copy what she sees on TV.

I was really upset that Noah got shot. For a moment there, I didn't see where the show was going to go with him out of it. Nice swerve by them, although in hindsight, we shouldn't have been too surprised by him being brought back. Also, it looks like West isn't a bad guy like we thought, although I see him being knocked off sooner or later.

Unless of course he needs air to live and food and water and all that...then he's fucked...still HOW DID HE GET HIM IN A GOD DAMN EMPTY CASKET?

And surely nathan can't die now that he has Adams blood in him....or does it only work for a while? ot to mention the fact that peter can travel through time....he could just go back and stop the shooting...how will they explain that away?

How will Adam be able to dig his way out? The second he manages to get through teh casket, he'll be literally crushed. Actually, really, he should have been already, but honestly. The finale was fine.

I don't imagine that Adam's blood is a long term cure, or we'd have many immortal men running around.

My big question is why nobody thought that Nathan might get shot. A big, powerful corporation is just going to let themselves get exposed on public TV? Sure, Parkman and Peter were there, but you'd think that they would have operated more safely. That's just too stupid for those three to have arrived at.

Also, Hiro can stop time. If he can use it to cheat at cards, protect himself, and so on, why can't he just go "You're frozen. You're in a coffin. " Mystery solved.

Except during the whole story arc with Charlie last year, no matter what Hiro did, he couldn't change the past to keep her alive. He went to the past to save his father, but failed. It looks like in the Heroes universe, death is the one thing Hiro can't change.

I'm curious about the blood thing. Is EVERYONE's mutation part of their bloodstream? Does that mean that if somebody got a transfusion from Sylar, they'd be telekinetic, have superhuman hearing, be able to cut people's heads open with his finger, go nuclear, and play Spock?

Yeah, their "mutation" is that their cells are capable of regeneration. Which means their blood cells too. So their very blood is carries their powers.

With other people, like being able to copy whatever you see... that has nothing to do with blood and thus a transfusion would do nothing.

Though, if Season One taught us anything, its that if you saw open a person's head and consume their brain, you get their powers.
