Heroes, Volume Two

Wasn't the little girl afraid of someone last season who could see her too?

They asked her if it was Sylar and she said no. I think Clare's father or was it Matt was a little surprised by it.

Looking forward to another fun season!

Couldn't be. Unless he's physically split himself the way Jessica mentally does, but otherwise he's an amnesiac in Ireland (maybe that Irish guy is immortal too, IDK) in a crate that was supposed to be full of iPods. Anybody else catch that reference BTW? Thought it was funny.

Why couldn't it be Peter? How are we supposed to know the time frame?
 
I don't get how they could be smart enough to do the Cork/Apple link, yet bugger up every English and Irish accent.

I thought that was quite good. I like the thought of a virus, and I didn't know Noah had powers? When his wife (forgot name) asks round the kitchen table about "having an eventful day", I liked when she went to Noah to cement the idea that he has powers.

Claire was being a bit of a silly bugger. You just wouldn't use your powers at all, but then there'd be no show in that :)

Good start. I liked the first series and a solid second series could give Lost something to worry about.

what's the cork/apple link for non uk folk?

and i doubt noah has powers, i think he's just a poor man's jack bauer. just very skilled in self defense and very knowledgeable. noah did work for the company though, so i think they are tracking him and the whole family, not just claire. you think if noah gave something away to his location, wouldn't you think claire would be close by? also, wife's name is sandra.

either that or a vision of what's to come. maybe he burns into a crisp later on as the radiation slowly effects his body.

So..... what's up with Nathan. How is he hiding what he saw in the mirror? Or was that supposed to be psychological?

I don't think he's burned only because he wouldn't be able to have that copious beard. I think he feels like he should be burned. Which begs the question of why: guilt, or did mama petrelli find another healer (since linderman is dead) to fix up Nathan's face?

Not only that, but Peter can travel through time since he absorbed Hiro's power. So a brainwashed Peter could be jumping time and place. I don't necessarily think it's Peter but his absorption of Hiro's power leaves that possibility open with very little retcon.
 
i missed the part after the commercial break about maya and stuff (stupid floriduh). what did i miss? anything super important?

is maya the person killing these people? what exactly is her power?

and what claire was doing at the end was just nasty. and why is wes spying on her? what does it have to do with anything.

and talking about regenerating, looks like kenzi can do it too. perhaps he doesn't really die at the end.

and it looks like the sanders and sylar come back next week.

but the episode is smelling like the show is headed towards sophomore slump. but still good stuff.
 
Looks like Alejandro presence cancels out Maya's "powers." I kinda figured that out since the last episode but it doesn't look like anyone has mentioned it yet.

I'm sure West is spying on Claire because he was suspicious of why she seemed to just be sitting in the gym alone, while she was waiting for her ankle to heal. Besides, he's nosy about whether there are others like him and she was expressing such interest in class.

I'm not sure Kensei did any regenerating of his own. It seemed as though Hiro had something to do with turning time back for a moment or two.
 
I guess also that Alejandro could be the polar opposite of his sister and be a healer or bringer of life and his twin sister is plague and bringer of death.
Some of the show has been a bit predictable especially Hiro I hope it picks up.

it's that and the fact that there's alot less connectivity to the plots than at this point last year (i know there's a reason for this) may indicate a dis-conjoined story at some points. i just don't want too many plot lines appearing from nowhere and the original plot line become lost. those are a big killer of storylines.

but it's still good. usually, the second season of a show is usually the worst season (how bad it is depends on the show), so i'm expecting this season not to be as great as season one. i think season three will own though, but it's a bit early to talk about that.
 
my concern is that we are two episodes into the season and we still haven't dealt with all of the major characters from last year and many of the characters have been brushed over. I hope that they don't rush to tie everything together by the end of the season especially with the addition of 3 new characters so far.
 
Just watched the first and second episodes. I'm super, super stoked Peter is back.

I think the virus plot could be good from a writing standpoint, because Peter will eventually absorb so many powers he will be unstoppable. A virus is pretty much the only thing that could stop him.

Cons of the new season so far:

1. The "accents" they tried to pull off as Irish.
2. The horrendous fake beard they glued to Nathan Patrelli.

I love Lee's idea of split Peters. A good, and a dark. Maybe when he absorbed the split personality power, the bomb power was enough of a catalyst to make it a physical split. That's pretty comic book-ish. That would also help to equal out Super Peter. He's by far the coolest character on the show, and he can't fly around kicking the crap out of everybody with one power. Maybe Sylar and good Peter would have to team up to finish off the Dark Peter.

On to episode three!

The way Mr. Nakamura approached the unknown man seemed to imply he knew him from the past, that he was a part of his generation of heroes. Not to say it's not Peter as the unknown man appeared to look young and fit Peter's frame, including the fact Peter can travel in time. So possibly a split of Peter that had a presence in Mr. Nakamura's generation. But if that's the case wouldn't Peter's parent's have known alternate Peter as well? Had Mr. Nakamura ever run into Peter in season one at all(I can't recall)? If he had you'd think he would have made mention of it.

My initial reaction of Wes:

Wes = Zach 2.0 :rolleyes:

I think you guys are overthinking this and it isn't anywhere near as complicated.

Probably not. I thought the Hiro's story line was super predictable.

Hopefully it won't get as wild as we are speculating, but I hope they mix it up a little bit.
 
thoughts for this week.

dl is dead!!! wonder how he died, because it probably wasn't something on camera.

and 'candice' is back. not a surprise, but her appearance is very short lived.

and it looks like kenzi can regenerate.

and micah is in algeirs it looks like. is nikki being naughty again? are they going to be cured? do they want micah?

but way too many stories are weighing the show down, and you can see that some of those places are truly fake. not that the show is no good, it's just not as great as last year. but it looks like the end is picking up everything.

and what is with that painting? you think claire is going to get brainwashed by her new friend to kill noah? who apparently is from st. louis...

and what was the chapter name btw?
 
looks like molly is trapped in her mind. similar to mai in the yugioh series, you think molly dies if she isn't saved in time? and matt's father is the guy who can see her. maybe he can trap others in their minds, linking to matt's power.

and monica and all of micah's nawlins family have too much of a southern belle accent, made it seem more like they were in alabama. people in new orleans usually speak in more of a cajun accent, different than the southern belle accent. and what's her power exactly?

looks like kristen bell is joining the cast.

but i think there are way too many stories here, bringing down the show a bit. and the episode seemed a bit short today.
 
Are there really people out there that are down on this show?

I think its still great. Yes, the are so many story lines that each segement is very short. But this is the classic soap opera story telling. Some people are still into Day of Our Lives after like 20 years.

Thie girl who can do whatever is on TV is probably Micah's half-sister or something.
 
In the last three days I have watched every Heroes episode up to and including the third episode of season two...AWESOME!

Its been a long time since a show has captivated me this much...
 
No posts yet? :confused::confused:

What did everyone think of Kristen Bell? Who's Daddy? Bob? Noah?

I liked the whole thing with Parkman's dad. Is he the ultimate bad guy this season?
