Suck my spoilers bitch.
they better sink some money into sfx. i don't think i can go another season seeing little "tastes" of powers because of budget constraints.
I'm sure the budget got bigger the second they got greenlit for a second season.
nathan and peter are both alive lmao
How is nathan alive?
Maybe Nathan dropped Peter in midair and flew away before he blew up.
Nathans dead, peter is gonna whine about it and turn emo just like he did season 1, and Hiro will randomly go to when they tried to save the chearleader to say hi to nathan for LULz so thats why hes credited in the season.
oh snap whats the spoiler tag again?!
beats me but in the promos on nbc he's bumming around some third-world slum with a giant beard and peter's in some cell all ripped to hellQuote:

Not that having Sylar as a lacky wouldn't be beneficial, but I'd hate to see that cool character neutered. Maybe having some kind of evil-doer in-fighting would be great.
I still need to watch the entire first season. Because I have yet to watch a whole episode.
It's the most overrated show on television
Quote:
NBC has released a description of "Lizards," the Oct. 1 episode of Heroes.
Here's how the network describes the episode:
"With one person dead, Matt (Greg Grunberg) enlists some unlikely help as the attacks continue on people with abilities. Claire's (Hayden Panettiere) efforts to hide her healing abilities at her new California high school are jeopardized by a fellow student with a secret of his own. Niki (Ali Larter) and Micah (Noah Gray-Cabey) leave Las Vegas in an attempt to start over. As part of his new job, Dr. Suresh (Sendhil Ramamurthy) must track down The Haitian (guest star Jimmy Jean-Louis).
"While crossing into Mexico, Maya (Dania Ramirez) and Alejandro's (Shalim Ortiz) abilities prove to be a threat to those around them. Meanwhile, disappointed by his hero Kensei (David Anders), Hiro (Masi Oka) resolves to rectify any damage his presence in feudal Japan has done to history. And another lost Hero falls in with a gang of Irish gangsters with clues to his past."
a gang of irish gangsters?
so he goes to feudal japan and teleports back? here i thought he'd be stuck there most of the season.
irish gangsters? Wow now I don't need to watch the episode
Black Donnellys imo.
I'm blasting through Season 1 in anticipation. Hopefully NBC doled out some VFX cash.

It's a spectacular idea, I just haven't watched it to see how well executed the main plot was.
But Sylar was one really good evil villian.
Not really in the spoiler realm since its NBC generalized TV guide description for the episode, but Ill toss tags on it anyway since its for the second episode:
Here's how NBC describes "Kindred," which is scheduled for Monday, Oct. 8:
"Upon his return to New York, Suresh (Sendhil Ramamurthy) is unnerved to find an undiscovered Issac Mendez painting that foretells death of someone close to him. Both Claire (Hayden Panettiere) and H.R.G. (Jack Coleman) pursue their own secret personal agendas. Determined to make it to the U.S., Maya (Dania Ramirez) uses her deadly abilities to free Alejandro (Shalim Ortiz) from a Mexican jail. Ando (James Kyson Lee) returns to his job in Japan and makes a happy discovery.
"Meanwhile, in Japan's past, just when Hiro (Masi Oka) had written off Kensei (David Anders), his childhood hero surprises him. Niki (Ali Larter) and Micah (Noah Gray-Cabey) leave Las Vegas in an attempt to start over. Later, Niki and a lost Hero individually strike shady bargains to reach their goals. Two familiar people with abilities make an unexpected return."
No. It deserves all it's love.Quote:

Look at your own risk.
Takei gets murdered
Peter is alive in Ireland with amnesia
Nathan is a drunk
Claire and her family live in Cali
Kristen Bell is a psycho operative for the Company
And so on and so on.
Hurray its back! Good ep IMO.
interesting, interesting. i wish they hadnt gone the amnesia route with Peter, i wanted something more interesting, held without choice similar to how sylar was. Kensei being english, eh, i feel like Hiro is being used as the comedic relief. Claires new airhead guy friend isnt working with me, theres something about his look that doesnt feel right. I love how Molly is being taken care by Mohinder and the Cop (its been so long i forgot names).
I have yet to watch a single episode.
No interest at all. And when i did get a little interest, a friend of mine told me:
"if you've read a comic book,than it does nothing new". and looking at some of the plot points...it really doesnt. Every single one of those plots has been done in a comic book before. No need to watch the show.

for that sake stop reading books, watching tv, watching movies, playing story driven video games.Quote:

I know you meant Ali Larter Dyne. Ali Landry is/was the hot Dorito's chick. I thought the episode was pretty good for a start to the new season. What I really liked was that there was a total of two commercials throughout the whole episode. 20-25 minutes of continuous show is great.

Also the cheerleaders new friend is Peter Pan?

The answer as to who killed Takai was posted on SHH (main page) ... months ago ....
Do Not Mouseover, if you don't wanna know.
Sylar. The actor who played Sylar said that in the first episode he kills someone. This was said in an interview on ET, when they were talking to him about the new Star Trek movie.
Also, I thought it was neat-o. The Columbian storyline sucks though. I kept flipping away(Picture in Picture my TV doesn't have it, but the cable box Comcast provides has the ability if you hook it up right. Thanks Comcast!) and watched the Halo parties. I bet Hiro, becomes the hero he read about. And then when he goes back to the present he's more kick ass and non-emotional, since his pops died and now he's a kick ass warrior.
I wanna know how Nathan survived. Peter we basically knew ... He can heal. But Nathan ... hmmm.
I like how HRG and Suresh are now like a secret operative team (read: X-Force).
yeah the Hiro idea is exactly what i think as well (and posted above).Quote:

i noticed the Columbian chicks power makes the persons eyes ooze in a very "crying Mary" type of way. can't wait to see how exactly she does it. probably blanks out like Ali's character does.
Just noticed it ... sorry.Quote:

yeah thats why i didn't really believe it. then again, you never know. maybe it was some alternate crazy hiro.
didn;t they say in the previews that two people come "back from the dead" or somesuch?

It could be that the really evil guy the little girl is having dreams about IS one of the original 9 that he mentioned. Remember how Sylar's corpse was dragged in to the sewer after the altercation? Yeah, I'm willing to bet this guy is using Sylar to do his dirty work.Quote:

The real question this season is: How does HRG afford that new house when he works at a fucking Kinko's?
Looked like a small apartment to me... but then again, a small apartment in southern CA = a decent house in TX. :P
theres holes in the entire show. If you wanna toss that card, then why didnt claire just fucking shoot peter, hes gonna survive you stupid bitch BOTH OF YOU have survived, why the fuck is this situation any different?Quote:

That's the biggest gripe as far as plot holes are concerned. I can usually shrug them off, but this one is just too big. Unless that is taking place, and we have yet to see it, since the first ep was rather limited in scope.
I'll take the limited scope ideal.
Didn't he return them? I can't remember now... But good call.Quote:

It was an ok episode, but not as good as last week, and the whole Candice situation reeks of some bad WWE storyline wrapup after someone suddenly got injured or quit the company.
I remember a thread about you saying how you greased your hair and we made some italian jokes about it then.Quote:

Not to mention Hiro back in ancient times and HRG-Claire being in every episode so far, bar none.Quote:

No. HRG is a character based upon extreme secrecy and preparation for, what we can assume, is the greater good of his family. Based on these known character traits it's not hard to assume that he has cash stowed away somewhere to cover the cost of his families needs.Quote:

Actually Sylar killing Candice / Michelle (which is the name of a WWE diva, oddly enough) was REALLY good for his character. He's immediately reintroduced as a psychotic SOB. He kills people and steals their power. Sylar is my favorite character of the series so far. Changing him to a team player right now would pussify him. Keep him bad ass for awhile longer IMO (he'll either die or become a pussy further on I'm guessing. They always do that with awesome characters on TV).Quote:

Syler is on the Lost island lol
I still dont understand what the deal is with the White Drunkard British Samurai Legend who Hiro is helping. Did the well of decent Japanese actors to take the role of a Japanese samurai just dry up or did the shows writers really intend originally for the role to be played by a white man?
Are you fucking serious? The whole IDEA of Kensei was that he was a Japanese Hero. For Hiro to go back in time and find out that he was a idiot is one thing, it's even more of a shock that he's a foreigner.
Exactly, so why the fuck isnt he japanese?You would think the japanese people would know a foreigner when they see one.Or was this just done from a writing perspective as omgshockfactOr? Because otherwise a British coward walking amongst the japanese people wearing full samurai gear is pretty dumb.Quote:

Is if the simple fact that he looks like he doesnt belong is because he really doesnt.Aka, he's a time traveling/self healing mutant who killed Kensei, and is placing himself there in that role and time period for other reasons.
Holy shit. Just HOLY SHIT.
The idea that Hiro had NO idea that his childhood was a foreigner is part of the omgshock. Sure they could have had a Japanese guy by Kensei and he could have been exactly how he was supposed to be. Instead Hiro goes back, finds out he's white and NOT at all what the stories said, thus Hiro has to become him/help him become what the legends say.
I really can't understand why this is so hard for you to figure out.
Don't let it get to you Chux, Jet's just a little thick. ;)
I would laugh if Superman would sue Heroes for fligh scene infringement from last night.

Also, I like the buildup better in Season Two than season one. I can see what they said in an interview that This season will have two arcs and they will be resolved quickly.
You should probably stop watching Heroes and pick an easier to follow show. Maybe Grey's Anatomy or Desperate Housewives would be more your speed.Quote:

Maybe they meant for him to be foreign for the omg factor. Cool. whatever.Thats what I asked.Noone here knows so an " I dont know dude" would have sufficed not OMFG YOU FUCKING IDIOTSHIT.

Consider yourself removed from my TNL friends list -- a list I never thought I'd see the day you'd be taken off of.
Actually Desperate Housewives is a pretty good show. However, there's no denying that the attention span required to follow a show like Housewives is considerably less than that of Heroes. With less characters and epic stories being undertaken on a week-to-week basis the show spends more time talking things out in a slower pace.Quote:

Andrew's Canadian. He doesn't mean bad, you just have to overlook his attitude as a cultural difference.
Heroes isn't doing anything for me this season. I still like HRG but there hasn't been any real character development in anyone from what we got last season. Fatty Candice was funny.
Season 2 of DH sucked so I stopped watching it. Started well though.
I think it's just because the first two so far have been intro episodes to set up the plot for the season. The first couple eps in season 1 weren't great either.Quote:

That's my take on the first episodes, although I do like the Peter story arch so far, though I wish amnesia could have been left out of it somehow. I also like Hiro's story with the gaijin samurai. I stopped watching the first season of Heroes for the explicit reason that the first two episodes I watched (of the series) were lame. The secretary at my work convinced me to check it out and I'm glad I did.
This season will be no exception... I hope.

And no surprise at Mr. Petrelli's face being blurred. Money is on him still being alive and being the generation killer. And could Sylar hurry up and kill Los Mexicanos quickly. They are annoying the hell out of me.
Good episode. Finally some payoff in sight for the Molly-Matt-Suresh storyline. OH SNAPES family in New Orleans was amusing.
