Heroes

[Beefy]

I'm looking forward to tonight's episode.  Pretty much everything that the series was building up to happened last week, so it feels to me like we're in completely uncharted territory now.

See, I think they misadvertised last week.  If what we saw was all that monumental then they really haven't shown us why.

Good: we get the Sylar reveal and origin synopsis

Bad: him, his origin, and especially his motivation are pretty lame

I like what they revealed about stripper girl, though.

Great:  Masi Oka really developing his acting chops.  I was really impressed by his range this episode.  It went beyond the "cute japanese dude" look

I like that his motivation has the same basic principle as Peter's.

who do you think gets offed?   I think it's gonna be ted.

Which one is Ted?  The cop?  I hope not.  I say be edgy, go with the kid.

Did you notice that after the flashbacks were all done, that all of the episode end shockers were the exact same episode end shockers replayed from last week?  Kind of lame.

[Beefy]

Also, if I gave a kid a $2000 laptop and I turned around minutes later to find him dismantling it into pieces I'd be pretty pissed off, too.  Seems a reasonable reaction.

No joke.

matt's the cop. they better not kill him off with as much back story as they've given.

ted sprague is the nuclear dude.

Have they established Nuclear Dude as a "hero"?  I sort of figured he had to stick around to play into the whole NYC getting nuked thing.  Unless that's what they show (again) next week.

sylar could kill him and take his power, like he did the telekinetic dude.

True.  It could be Sylar who blows up at the end when he can't control all of his power.  Sylar needs to blow up.

So what is he doing with the brains?

[DownSouth]

Is it just me or did the suggestive chick look really hot with the long hair?

maybe he's taking the defects out and moving them into his brain some how.

i think she'd even look hot with no hair.

I liked her better with pixie hair.

I thought that's what he was doing.  I wonder where he got the cuting power from.

could he be doing that with telekinesis?

It just didn't click for me until just now.  I don't know why.  Sylar had no powers, the telekinetic dude did and said he wanted them taken away from him, and then Syler could do telekenesis.  But the dots just didn't connect for me until I read your post.

I think Sylar had power - he saw how things worked.  The tests were showing positive but when he looked at the head of the telekinetic dude he briefly saw a flash like he was understanding how the brain and these powers worked.  He justed wanted more power than what he had.

yeah, some super focus or understanding of things. who knows.

such a good show.

i bet they could make a kick ass video game out of it.

I dunno.  If they have a set storyline, revealing things at their pace instead of like, say, "Lost" where they're just making shit up, then I'm okay with there not being some big reveal at the end of each episode.  I think they had a fair number of reveals in the episode itself, really.  Nikki's dead sister, Nathan flying out of the car, the brain clot.  They got a lot of great performances from their cast this time around.  I hope to god that there's a well plotted out storyline going here.
