Mr. Mojo Risin'
Hiro IS awesome, too bad Eden died yeah. However I was expecting more of a surprise at the end. I knew it had something to do with radioactive man(lol, ze goggles) for a long time.

I downloaded the whole thing and watched it over the last two days.

Y'know, it's been bugging me but how come in the ep where the cop passes out in the bar he later identifies the Haitian as "some big haitian?" (or something along those lines) How the fuck could he tell the guys nationality just by looking at him?
We'll I'm going to say he is a cop so has been trained to differentiate ethnicities. wink.gif

Eden turned off the power defuser so she could control Sylar
Did they show it specifically in the show?
QUOTE(Reverend_Null @ Dec 5 2006, 11:43 PM) *

Eh, they focus waaaay too much on Nikki's tattoo for it to be there randomly. I'm betting that her powers were given to her by whatever that symbol is, and not the result of something random.
That symbol has been shown many a time throught the series. check it: here. I think it's a way to differentiate between the two, Jessica and Nikki.

Yes when she turned off shit before she entered the quetioning room.

I have a question about Eden: did she shoot herself in the head or did Sylar force the gun on her? If she did shoot herself, would this somehow keep Sylar from getting her power since he needs her brain or something? Just curious about that.

Also, they should really stop killing off the likable female characters.
Zombie N-Word
She shot herself so that Sylar couldn't use her brain to get her powers. I was confused about it too, but they explained it in the comic that takes place after that episode.
Da Bears
I never looked at the whole Eden shooting herself thing so Sylar can't get her powers....good point.

And Master Bob, I don't think Nikki and the Petrelli's are related. After all they did have sex in Vegas in one of the early episodes, I'm about to watch the show all over from the start again, this will be the first show I buy on DVD.

Hiro is sweet, I can't wait to see him fight a T-Rex. Hopefully with the success of the show, they will actually do a good job in the graphics of a T-rex because most TV shows have lame CGI.

I know Peter is the main character, but at first he was really fucking annoying. They tried to make it seem like his brother was an asshole, but I kind of agreed with him...I mean so what if he can fly, great he can fly around. And he's running for governor, so just cause he can fly doesn't mean he has to change his life so Peter can figure out stuff that his brother doesn't even know about. I just thought it was funny that they make him into a dick, when all he can really do is fly and he is oblvious to most of the things going on.

Anyone else feel bad for Claire?? She just lost her best friend (possibly only friends) because the damn black man/Haitian erased his memory. Like who cares about her brother, he still knows who she is...but her friend was like "I haven't seen you since 7th grade" etc...

I think Nikki's power of being a skizo (SP?) is kind of lame. And it's definitely her sister in her, and she's definiteyl strong. But her story is really boring and annoying, still waiting to see how her family comes into the big picture.

Great show though, I love it.

Ok so I had been meaning to watch this show for ages, but its on Mondays and I usually watch NFL/Raw so I never watched it and just decided I was going to wait and watch them all at once.

Since it's on a small break I decided to just watch them all after I found out they were all available at NBC.com. Well, I watched them all, 1-11, in a night in basically one sitting and the show is very addicting and damn good.

I was though somewhat dissapointed with the final episode, it was good I just was dissapointed.

I personally cant wait until the show starts up again but I cant decide if I will watch it weekly or do as I did this time and wait until its finished then watch them all in one shot because I like doing that so much more than having to wait weekly.

Regardless, I really like the show and Hiro is an absolute badass. Can't wait to see more.

I can understand it, her power alone was able to make him go down and for htem to take him in custody. Sure he was injured some at the time but she still took him out. She realized if he had her power, no one would literally be able to stop him from getting their power.

Well the Haitian put him to "sleep" like he did with Matt as well.

I just found it odd how right after Jessica threatened her dad, the Petrelli's father died.
Horn-rimmed glasses guy is an ass. A complete and utter ass. Don't blame the Haitian, he's cool as he obviously saved Claire memory. It's all about who is behind the Haitian man.
Here's a question though:
What are the different powers of Nikki/jessica?
We know they have super strength and maybe some weird absoprtion of other people's psyches

Well I finally got around to downloading this and now I'm obsessed. I'm still in the middle of episode 10 and I'm a little confused by something that Nikki and her dad say to each other while they're talking. It's right after he gives the kid his laptop, he says something about a cycle and being sick, and she replies that she's been reciting mantras for over a year.

Any help?

PS: Claire is a fucking babe. I don't know if it's because she's 17 so we're almost the same age, but I just find her really attractive. Definitely gives the show a boost, Nikki does too.

I thought Eden was hotter, but I'd still nail Claire like the golden spike.

Oh, and what are these "comics" that people are mentioning that provide more background info?

big fan of this show

Incredibly short (like 3 pages each) works that sometimes fill in the gap between episodes and focus on a specific character or two. The one that take place after Eden kills herself is Claire's dad telling her father the news about her death, and there's another that shows Clair pull that would-be-rapist kid out of the burning car.

There're all at NBC's website and there's also torrents for them floating around.

Hiro got snaked out of his weapon.

Also: 1) Why does Linderman own everything? and 2) Anyone else think Hiro is actually that samurai guy whose sword he tried to steal? I mean, they both have soul patches...

Very good points, I think Linderman is the guy who blows up NYC maybe....

Hiro got totally screwed there. Also, invisible dude, hell yeah!

Edit @ 1 AM - My moxi (dvr) just showed me that Hiro's dad will show up in the next episode...and it's fucking George Takei. Awesome. laugh.gif

Could be Hiro's dad too, since he told Hiro all those stories as a child. Or maybe Hiro is the one who leaves the sword for the samurai guy to find, who knows.

I'm thinking Linderman has to have powers himself. He is connected to virtually everyone and seems to know a lot and control a lot from behind the scenes. It's possible that the "boss" that claire's dad referred to when discussing why they couldn't kill skylar just yet is Linderman.

Ooo Inquisitive, I never thought of it to that extent.
AlienFromBeyond
Yeah, I figured Linderman was probably Mr. Bennet's boss.

At least we know what the symbol is now. Though I'm kind of worried about the direction they might take in regards to the powers being a "great talent" combined with "godsend" and the Haitian saying that the powers are God.
Master Bob
Linderman is also a huge crime boss with tons of extra cash . . . eh? Though it is completely possible that he has powers. If he does have powers he is not on the ist.

And Peter gains radioactive mans powers once he heads out into the desert. Remember how he was saying before he blew up in one of his visions that he couldn't control the radioactive power?
It could also be that peter is just witnessing the event from the perpetrator's eyes.

Did we really see the whole list though? I thought all that was shown was a fragment of a much larger one that couldn't be displayed on one screen.
Master Bob
No we didn't see the whole list I believe. But we saw two columns of a whole screen of the list, I could give you numbers later when I have more time.

I don't think Linderman has any powers though, he could be involved . . . but I don't think he has powers as if he did I think we would have actually seen him by now.

We did just get introduced to invisible man, and we still haven't met the chick in the comics that controls technology. You're probably right though, but I definitely think there's something sinister about him concerning the Heroes themselves and not just his mob boss position. Maybe he wants to somehow steal or obtain the powers himself, which is why he's having Claire's dad do research (if indeed he is the boss).
ErrorDante
I really enjoyed this new episode. After watching every single eps of Heroes in one sitting while it was on break I was going to do the same with the second half of this season but I decided I couldnt wait that long and I'm glad. This show kicks to much ass to wait that long.
!LLF!
Just a few episodes in, I'm lovin it.

Didn't really read the topic because of omgspoilarz

with George Takei!

Hell yeah!

Just finished tonight's episode. It's kind of obnoxious how slow everything progresses since it follows so many plotlines, but whatever. Woot for Claire's mom being pyrokinetic, and wtf at Hiro's dad. Any ideas on who her father is? My best guess is Linderman.

Why Nathan? Though it would be a good way to force his character to get involved in everything, and would tie the characters together in a manner other than the Linderman thing. Oh, and I really want to see more of what Micah can do.

It just seems like a better twist than "OMG Linderman" since that's defintely what we were all thinking with the preview. And I was sorta hoping Micah would do something more interesting (like fix his dad's car...but I'm sure his technopathy doesn't work that way)
