I enjoyed it even though I had forgotten much of last season. I do have to say it's sort of back to form. The Pre-Episode was all about ass kissing I thought.

It's VERY hard for me to NOT think about the 4400 when I watch this show.

Season 2 was rough, I'll admit, but the writers strike didn't help either.

There's a lot more to talk about.

I do think it's the best superhero show probably produced for television. While I do enjoy the Wonder Woman/Bionic Man/Woman type of stuff, there were so many cheesy/campy moments. At least Heroes tries to be serious in the content.

On my way to work this am, I realized that I FORGOT TO TIVO Heroes last night.

You can watch it online!

The first hour was kinda iffy, which is okay cause they're trying to set everything up.

The second hour rocked. Though Anytime Granny(Mrs.Petrilla) gets air time I'm happy. Finally we know that her power is to see the future. I loved her repeatedly telling Peter go back where he came from in her annoyed tone.

I think that last night was a good starting point for the new season. They didn't go there on purpose to keep people watching.



*Possible spoiler*









Peter in the future is hotter than Peter in the now.
The cholo that has Peter Petrelli's soul? Is hot!!!!!
I wanna do Veronica Mars....or whatever her name is on this show! Hot, mean, and powerful, exactly like I like my women. Heehee!

Was definitely better than the shitshow of last season. I mean, it's still full of stupid plot lines and inconsistent character writing (ie, Mohinder suddenly deciding it makes sense to go all lizard-man), but at least it feels like they're realizing they're not so good with the character stuff so they might as well makes sure the plot moves along at a nice clip. Matt's Visionquest in the dessert is stupid though--way too Buffy Season 7.

I felt the opposite. 1st half was good, second half ok.

I thought we knew Mrs. Petrelli could see into the future already.

Kristen Bell? I find her character extremely annoying.

Lizard man! We were screaming "It's the Fly!"

CarrieMpls said:

Does it allow you to fast forward through the intros and commercials?

Nothinbutjoy said:

The intro - yes. There aren't the same commercials online as when it broadcasts. There are the same ad breaks, but they are usually no more than 30 seconds, if that, and from only 1 advertiser per break.

Missed it on NBC but good thing G4 plays it again.

CarrieMpls said:

Isn't EVERYTHING on TV a rip off of something else???? Yeah it's still fun to watch.

CarrieMpls said:

Yeah season 2 was not that bad as some people make it out to be. Hiro stayed in Japan waaaaay tooooo looooong. Maybe 3 episodes would have been alright.

MendesCity said:

Way too many stupid plot lines. I got tired of trying to keep up. About the only thing that piqued my interest is when the old broad told Syler she was his mother.

damn it

missed it.

any plans to re-air it?

errant said:

Watch it online!

CarrieMpls said:

i'm really considering it. unfortunately, when i'm on the computer, my attention span is REALLY lacking

if they aren't going to re-air it before next week, i definitely will though.

errant said:

G4 (cable station) plays the repeat the next day

kpowers said:

i guess i've missed that too, now.

I finally watched the premiere this weekend.

Well, the show certainly can't be accused of not moving fast enough this season. It almost felt like too much was happening. Can the show possibly keep up this pace for 25 episodes?

The whole Fight Club-type delusions with Nathan is interesting, but I thought his turning to religion was way too fast.

I don't like the idea of the normal characters getting powers like Mohinder and Ando--especially Mohinder. That part made me groan. I hope it's only temporary.

And as far as I'm concerned, Claire was RAPED by Sylar. He violated her, took what he wanted from her body and left her numb. RAPE.

The preview special was dumb.

I've never seen that show. I'm going 2 Tivo it and check it out this weekend.

sextonseven said:

Yes! The preview special ruined some of Episode 1 for me.
It was very self indulgent. The fans didn't even look like fans. They looked like extras.

If you guys missed an episode G4 (Cable station) plays it agaib on tuesdays.

The show is still moving at a quick pace. The Magneto guy got killed after two episodes already. But Parkman had better get out of that desert fast before that subpolt turns into another Hiro in feudal Japan snoozer.

Two things I didn't understand about last night's episode:

Why in the world is Sylar working with the company? Are his mommy issues so deep that he'll do anything Mama Petrelli says because she told him he's her son?

When Claire's mom was using up all the oxygen in the storage container with her flame and making Claire suffocate, shouldn't she have been suffocating too? Doesn't she need to breathe as well? Or was Claire just panicking/hyperventilating?
