I am completely hooked on this show. It really makes you wonder what happens to Hiro to turn him into a bonafide hero. He sure looked like one at the end.

Hiro looked awsome at the end last night, and he can speak perfect english as well. I am really loving this show. One thing that gets me is that they seem to be copying the X-men charitistics. (Wolverines healing ability - Chearleader, Rogues ability to steal powers - politicians brother)

When did someone steal powers?

Didn't see that yet. Can't they both just fly?

Great show!

I think the cheerleader and her adopted dad are gonna fight in the end somehow.

When he was talking to Mohinder in his apartment he said that he could fly when his brother was around and he could draw the future when he was around Isaac, he said his power was to be able to copy other peoples powers.

I think it's a little hard to come up with new superpowers Marvel and DC pretty much have them all covered.

Here is a twist.

Remember the first episode when the cheerleader stuck her hand in the garbourator? Well, the company who made that garbourator featured in the show is now suing NBC.

lol...

Can we talk about in the end when Hiro ran into Peter and said "You look different without your scar"... Setting up for something huge!

About ratings for the show:

http://money.cnn.com/2006/10/16/news...s/tv/index.htm

Through mid-October, "Heroes" has pulled in about 13.5 million viewers a week. While that's only good enough to make the show the 27th most watched overall, the numbers are significantly better with 18-49 year-olds. "Heroes" ranks 11th with that demographic. NBC has already announced that it has picked up "Heroes" for the full season.

I'm sure there were a lot of teenage girls out there cheering last night when she drove an ******* teenage boy into a brick wall at 100 miles an hour.

Alright everybody!! Let's meet up in Vegas!!! And then save the world!!

her storyline is my favorite (of course it doesn't hurt that she's so easy on the eyes as well). and her power doesn't seem to just be a carbon copy of wolverine, and she apparently doesn't even feel pain and is seemingly unable to die

and i think she'll either just walk away from the crash with no witnesses or pull him into the driver's seat so it looks like he was driving

We started on page 4.

It'll be interesting to see what Hiro's weakness is because as it stands right now he has unbelievable power. Way more power than anyone else.

Yeah, that's what i was thinking. Of course Shilo or whatever seems pretty powerful too. Seems he can move things with hsi thoughts. Would be hard for hiro to concentrate enough to teleport being thrown a brick wall?

I dunno.

Hakan · 10-18-2006, 09:23 AM

Sylar seems very powerful too. That's an important element to any comic book story. The villain has the be tough to beat.

Does anyone think the cute girl hanging out with Mohinder has ulterior motives? I think she's going to turn evil, her friendship and demeanor seem all too perfect.

Yep, she bugs me. I think she is spying for sure.
Her 'look' really bugs me though, not exactly sure why.

Great episode tonight. Lots of development that makes it really really interesting now. (I watched the detroit feed at 7).

Anyway, just a reminder to those who watch, on in about 30 mins.

DementedReality · 10-23-2006, 11:24 PM

another killer episode ....

Neeper · 10-23-2006, 11:50 PM

yeah, that was an awesome episode.

Hemi-Cuda · 10-24-2006, 03:51 AM

god i hate watching series like this in real time. just when i get into an episode it's over. i should have just waited until the first season was over so i could binge on it for a bit
