who cares mate, heroes written by monkeys

Yeah... its... its getting really bad... I mean... I don't think I've ever just stopped watching a series like this... but I think I just might in this case... It is reaching a critical mass of cheesiness and plot holes... But it isn't like I'll be lacking stuff to watch... Prison Break, Dexter, The Office, etc...

Alright, that episode did tie up some things. I was interested how Mr.Petrelli got bedridden. Man I just didn't think about any more family power connections like Claire's mom and the blue flame guy being siblings. Good Job Noah, you fucked up Sylar from the beginning. Seems like every character in the show does something and ends up fucking everything up.

Whatever power that was Sylar acquired did not look like Cryokinesis, which he gets at some point before killing the next person on that list -James Walker, Molly's dad. Technically shattering things like that could be an advanced usage of it but why not just show it directly being Cyrokinesis and fill out that nice 'plothole' of where he gained the ability to freeze Molly's dad solid before removing his brain. Then again this is Heroes I'm talking about...

This latest episode really sucked. Hard. Did we really need any of that? All the stuff with Meredith and Flint and Eric Roberts seemed really unnecessary. Oh wow Meredith and Flint are related -- did we need a whole episode to learn that?

And the stuff with Sylar -- everybody already likes Sylar, they're trying TOO HARD to make him into a good guy now. If the next episode tries to push him into GOOD GUY territory even more then I'm just going to give up on him. We get the point already.

The only thing that really happened in this episode was showing how Mr. Petrelli "died" and survived, and the last minute at the end with Hiro and Usutu. But other than that, the entire episode didn't push the story forward AT ALL.

I've seriously lost hope in this show. I don't know why I even bother to keep watching it. Out of habit maybe.

It's fleshing out the story more. What's wrong with that? It showed that Noah could've stopped it Sylar from the beginning and it gives more reason for him wanting to kill Sylar. I like these type episodes that fill in the past.

Yeah wish they would of have done that with cryokenesis, though James walker could still be the one with it, and sylar just froze his body afterwards. Not the greatest episode but i did like them showing Arthur and Linderman together. I think Hiro will still freeze time before Artur can steal his powers, or maybe mid way through stealing them as a way to weaken Hiro up a bit.

If he does get Hiro's powers, im gonna pray he learns to use them properly unlike Hiro who's a complete d**k head for being so useless with the most powerful power of them all.

Doubt it, Molly's dad was frozen mid bite of his breakfast.
I get the feeling Ando might intervene by attacking Arthur distracting him so Hiro can teleport away, I don't think freezing time would work since Arthur has that power and when Hiro froze time to kill Adam Monroe Peter was unaffected, this could potentially involve him having to leave Ando behind and explaining how he turns against Hiro for being abandoned and gets given a power - i.e Arthur captures him and experiments on him.

Forgot about Walker being frozen mid bite. Makes sense about Ando, though I don't think that future exist anymore.

Didn't he get it when he stole peter's powers?

I thought the episode was okay. Had some unneeded parts. I'm not liking how there isn't enough PETER PETRELLI in the show now, he's the epic hero man! The episode did do a good job developing the dad. Final Boss is a calm and immensely evil man, perfect. Peter with all his powers vs. dad with all powers plus more! It'd be epic.
 
The ending was awesome though, left me waiting for the next episode.

I'm totally digging the whole father arc, I like the idea of the calm, all knowing villain that the Heroes will have to (eventually) stand up against to beat - it kind of embodies the feel of the first season with a lot of superhero collective comic book stuff mixed in.

These past two episodes have been really important for me cause I worked on set for scenes in both so seeing the finished product is downright amazing.

Does your contract prevent you from asking for autographs??

I have a heroes poster I got signed by Hayden Panettiere, Kristen Bell, Malcolm McDowell, Tim Sale, and Alex Maleev. I got Milo Ventimiglia on a poster for his comic book tho.

In Episode 6, there was a scene with Elle and Claire in an airplane - in reality it was a huge airliner cabin mounted on a hydraulic platform called a gimble - I did some rigging work (lighting, mainly) and some finishing touches on the walls, around the windows, etc. It was cool but there were over 50 people doing the same thing so it was easy to get lost in the crowd.

Check it. The one and only pic I was able to shoot before being told to "Put that shit away" by NBC security.



The other scene I worked on was in Ep. 7, when Meridith finds out her brother Flint has been captured and talks with him through the holding cell glass. I just held a boom mike for that scene inside the cell, it was the end of the day and people wanted to go home. Also in the scope of the show the talent was pretty B-List for that scene so all I had to do was volunteer and they let me do sound.

Eric Roberts (The guy who plays Thompson, the boss at Primatech) borrowed my cell phone during that scene and called some area code I didn't recognize. I'm glad I get free long distance!

Eh, not really, but the talent really does not appreciate fanboyism on set - Hayden (who demands to be called "Hadey P" by people her age) is kind of a cool chick, I argued with her about saying sup AND giving the sup nod at the same time... Masi Oki has a new iPhone which he let me play with, and Krystin Bell is kind of a bitch!!! But yeah!

So... no, I could have asked, chose not to. Non-Disclosure Contract only forbade me to reveal plot details before the episodes aired.

T'was a religious experience to say the least.

I didn't expect Kristen Bell to be kind of a bitch. When I got her auto we had a small chat and she was mad chill.

Yeah that shit must've been pretty cool.

I think it had something to do with the fact that they did 17 takes of the airplane scene cause Hayden couldn't get her lines right. Krysten miiiiight have been pissed about that.

It was cool, but it was also work. Not a bad way to make a few hundred bucks.

Sigh, probably the weakest episode this season.

1. I don't know what Hiro and Ando are going to do and I don't care. Mr.P brainwashing him into thinking he's 10 years old or w/e the heck he does was lame. Kill him! Rip Hiro's head off.

2. Sylar and Elle's scene was predictable, though Mr.P watching them was kind of disturbing.

3. Claire is "the chosen one" *gasp* like we all didn't expect this. I... I think I'm the catalyst.

4. So, "Save the cheerleader, save the world". If this thing still rings true, that means she must be detrimental to saving the world. But the only way for her to be of any use is for her to give her blood or whatever to give people super powers. So maybe when the eclipse arrives and everyone loses there powers, Claire gives her blood to Mohinder or someone and they complete the formula and give it to Peter or something.

5. Also, I thought Sylar gained his dad's power and took away Elle's power by touch, but I guess he just developed a weaker form of what Peter could do. (Sylar touched Elle and copied her power, Peter just got near you).
