"10-8 Episode"

Posted by dragonflies on 10-09-07 at 10:28 AM
Did no one watch last night? I stayed up late to watch. What did you think?

I thought they did a better job of catching us up on some of the heroes.

I thought the part between Claire and West was way too corny, but I guess it fits in with the whole High School thing. Is she really that short, or is he really tall?

Hiro in ancient Japan is getting old. Wild how the twist with him writing notes to Ando. Loved that whole time/space continuum thing worked.

Ah, Peter. *thud*

We didn't hear anything from Nathan or his mom. Wonder what is going on there?

Sorry about DL and his death. Is Nikki really expecting to be cured, or does she have an ulterior motive too. And who was the lady that Mica went to visit. She seemed very familiar. Is DL really dead?

I thought this was the best episode so far this season. However that is not saying much.

Hiro's story is getting old for me as well as the Ireland story. Although I kind of liked how they contrasted Peter and Syler. I kind of see how the characters became who they were in that flash forward from last season. Syler must somehow get the shapeshifting power so he can become Nathan.

Maya and Alejandro are real snooze fests. I just don't care about them at all.

I liked how it is back to Clare and HRG guy not trusting each other again.

I thought at first that Syler might be on the hero's side this season but I think I am wrong.

Hiro writing to Ando was cool but my biggest problem with all the time travel is that I just can't believe that any story will "stick". It can always be changed by something he goes and does. Kind of loses it's emotional impact. I expect one day to see Isaac or Simone again. Maybe not this season or next but sometime.

I totally forgot about Maya and Alejandro. They are completely forgettable.

I don't care where Peter is, as long as he is a main character shown often.

I do agree about Hiro and the timeline conundrum. I like that word. Conundrum.

...and without his shirt on. *pant*

So, if Alejandro does not cure the black eye sludge thingy, does Maya die, too? Or does her ability only kill other people?

The lady in New Orleans is Nichelle Nichols, Uhura from the original Star Trek series. I'm betting that she is playing DL's mother.

I thought they said she was his aunt?
Who was the lady last season that said she was his mother?

Did anyone get a "I'm an evil voodoo chic" from Auntie DL?

she's another one with some special power.

Yes, I got the weird Voodoo jive from her. I’m sure she has some sort of power. If you read the online comic, the Haitian and his weird powers seemed to come from his Dad and the “magic” from Haiti. Maybe the special powers have a voodoo connection or something.

I really enjoy this show, but if Captain Kirk shows up anytime soon I think I will have to stop watching.

I think Zachary Quinto is playing Spock in the upcoming Star Trek movie...

But I demand NIMOY!


If you are sure that you're right, you probably aren't.


"RE: Wahahaha!"
Posted by TenPin on 10-10-07 at 10:54 AM
I heard that too. He is supposed to be playing a young Spock, so maybe Nimoy could be his dad or something.

Live Long and Prosper and all that

I thought it was the best episode this season, but the season as a whole has been disappointing. At least the pace is starting to pick up.

I too could do without Maya and Alejandro. Since we wouldn't be seeing them if they didn't make it to the US, let's fast forward a little and have them show up at Mohinder's apartment in the next episode. Move this plot line along a little, please.

And I was disappointed when Hiro scrunched up his face to leave ancient Japan... then stopped. Too bad he didn't come back to the present. And I liked the snapshot of Ando back in his dead-end job. Makes me think things are going to change, and soon.

Maya and Alejandro are Heroes' Nikki and Paulo. What a waste of space. I don't understand her power and I don't like it. And what does he do? Take the bad stuff into himself? It makes no sense and is kind of boring, not horrifying which is what I think they were going for. The sooner Syler can kill those two, the better.

Hmmm, if Sylar kills them both, does it negate their powers for him?

What about when Peter is near them, and he absorbs. Can he use either at will? That sounds like it could make him become a nasty.

And if he were just to come in contact with Maya, would his Claire-ish healing be enough to protect him??
