The cameos keep piling on, the guy that played Simon on Battlestar Galactica is the therapy group leader for the cops.

You know, at the risk of jinxing it and watching them revert back to their usual ways and fucking everything up... this isn't terrible at all, i'm actually enjoying it a lot, especially the second half.
 
On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being seasons 2,3, and most of 4 this was an 11.

On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being heroes and 10 being Dexter, this was a solid 6.

Will watch next week.

Well, I would get over that fear of heights pretty damn quick. But spiders would still torment me...lol.


"The chick who killed herself/was murdered or the black haired girl."

The black haired girl.
 
Pretty good episode. Hiro has got to be the dumbest person in existence. His powers don't even work right anymore. Yet he wants to go fix his every mistakes. Goddammit.
 
So it looks like the Matt/Sylar thing is a bit like the Xavier/Magneto thing from the "Fatal Attractions" storyline that lead up to Onslaught...mindwipe causes a piece of the bad guy's mind ending up in the telepath's head, nudging that person's dark side to the surface, and then we have a powerful evil psychic running amok. Except Matt is actually aware of Sylar's presence as opposed to Xavier not realizing it until just before Onslaught took over.

And I noticed a "TRUST" motivational poster in the background during Matt's group therapy scene...can't not think about GAF when seeing those now. (yeah i know they don't come from GAF)

The answer to the porn question then is "sorta". She has been and I assume will continue to be one of the central characters in Californication on HBO starring David Duchovny. I think we only see her naked on the very first episode.

It's not porn but she didn't leave a lot to the imagination.

And he has telekenesis. They can't help themselves with the powers. If they could stick to everyone having only 1 power, that would be a good start to fixing the show.
 
Well I didn't want to pull out my hair, but it was really boring. I only watched it cuz I had nothing better to do for almost an hour.

I can't. I have to watch everything during the weekends. Cable sucks in the dorm. :'(

Also, why does everyone say most of the fourth season? This is the fourth season. Do you mean the fourth volume.
 
:lol you're assuming i've thought about Heroes since it went off the air.

This shit's dull. Anything kickass in the last 30 minutes or can I give it the click?

I'm interested in it. I'm going to watch it tomorrow night on G4. House was on tonight and it's easier to wait one extra day to watch Heroes than to wait an extra two weeks to watch House on USA.
 
Episode has been ok so far, but it seems to have more commercials than House. I hope things actually happen at a good pace, the problem with volumes 2 & 3 weren't just the terrible acting and non-sensical character personality changes, but nothing ever happened.
 
Better premiere than I thought it was going to be for sure, so I'll continue to stick with it. And somebody already mentioned it but I look forward to Matt Parkman Onslaught at the end of the season.

He's going to be eventually, but for now the Carnival seems to be it. Apparently they have a magic compass that responds only to people with "abilities". I wonder what it points to, and why the carnie buried the other compass with his dead brother. Actually I wonder how his brother died. And what power that old man had, since he seemed to send him back in time. I wonder how he gets back. Nothing makes sense! Ah, good old Hereos is back.

I just want Sylar to come back and kill everyone to end this show.

If anyone smart was in his position, that would've happened already. Heck if someone smart was in Peter's position, he could've done it too. It's the Superman dilemma, if they're too strong, they have to have a crippling weakness (always in the wrong place, stupid, crazy, etc.)
 
Eh, it was okay, not mind-blowing. Better than S3 though, with that fugitive crap, and they've laid the groundwork for a potentially interesting season. Now let's hope they don't screw it up too much with their inevitably convoluted crap.
