    Great stuff....I won't mention the one really annoying spoiler in the upcoming scenes.

    I'm floored by this episode. Well done, moved the storyline along. Was just crazy good. For those who said they weren't sure the show could keep up this pace, it obviously is. I just hate that I have to wait nearly a full two months for the next new episode.

    I know of what you speak. As happy as I was to see it, it ruined something for me. Although they did throw us a curve with Simone's death, so maybe that was a twist too. I hope not, but it's a possibility.
    Why do I feel like Jason Giambi after writing that paragraph? I'm happy I saw it...Saw what?...Can't say, but I'm happy for it.

    As for tonight's episode, I felt it wasn't good as the last two, but still held its own.

    April 23rd?

    APRIL 23RD?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!!!!!

    It is highly amusing that Lost gets a bunch of static for splitting up the season once for a long time to ensure a lack of repeats down the entire stretch of spring. And Heroes has now done this twice, leaving us wth a "to be continued . . .see you in 6 weeks!"

    Well, bollocks.

    Amen to that. I get a couple of weeks, but are they assuming the entire free world goes on spring break over the next six weeks? I'm not going anywhere, except into a small rage after just getting caught up with this show and now having it disappear again.

    Hiro from the future: You look different without your scar.
    Guess that explains that. But at least it looks like the writers are plotting things out, unlike Lost, for example, where they have people going around in circles. Maybe driving a van, or in a boat circling the island or walking around the island in a circle.

    And I don't know the point of taking a break. If 24 can run nonstop, why can't Heroes?
     
  7. Because they started it back in September. 24 didn't start till the end of January. It works for an established show, but most new shows premiere in the fall to build momentum. Midseason replacements usually are filler for cancelled shows.

    It's easy to have no throwaway episodes in the first season of a show. By the third . . . not so much.

    I would guess the writers for both Lost and Heroes have a plan.

    i thought tonight's episode simply set the table for other great episodes such as last week's.

    it was an entertaining hour, but it wasn't "damn" TV.

    I think the big reveal was that it showed how involved the parents are. And it seems that they are setting it up to make Linderman the big bad guy, but I don't think so.
    For the lack of a better description, I think he turns into the Professor Xavier of the bunch. But a more of the behind the scenes guy with the money, who pulled the strings to put the Heroes into positions of power.

    i think cheerleader's grandma will have the biggest impact.

    The show, to me, has gotten too confusing. Too much shit going on. And what makes them heroes? So far, I haven't seen anyone being saved. I liked the show, it just jumps too much for my taste.
