Heroes -- ".07 Percent" -- 04.23.2007


".07 Percent"

Sylar (Zachary Quinto) continues his rampage; Nathan weighs what he has learned from Linderman (Malcolm McDowell); Thompson (Eric Roberts) does everything he can to locate Claire.

I watched the 3 episode marathon Saturday but it would be nice if NBC aired some kind of recap hour for those who might want to give this a try (kind of like Lost when they came back from their hiatus).

Glad this is back. It was getting pretty good before it went on hiatus.

I don't even remember where all of the story lines were at. I probably won't bother watching.

That's sort of the purpose of the recap at the beginning of the episode...

Are you kidding? I thought people were whining before because they were so thorough. I imagine this week will top all. I expect like a 5 minute recap.
It may be why it's running long.

I'm also glad it's finally back. I have to admit the show loses momentum being broken up into 3 parts. I wonder what type of scheduling NBC will use for this show next season.

I know...but I wonder what's going to happen if all of these serial shows decide to do like 24 and air January to May. We'll be getting heaps of crap in the fall.

Man, another long break is finally getting ready to end!

These breaks really can kill the momentum of a show. That's why I dropped Jericho and Prison Break this season. I was slightly on the fence about them before and then when they came back after their long breaks, I had just lost the interest in seeing them. I'm happy to say, though, that I still have interest in seeing Heroes.

Well, there really is only a few options here. Either pad out 23-24 episodes over 8 months with some repeats thrown here and there. Break the season up into 2 parts like what Jericho and Lost did and then air some specials to fill the time gap. Or start the show in January and air it repeat free until May sweeps.

No matter what viewers will probably hate all these options.

Jericho was off for almost 3 months and yes that killed any momentum it gained going into November.

Prison Break was only off for 1 month and returned in January. Last season it was off for almost 4 months.

Watching the early viewing here in Canada. The title refers to:

Spoiler:
the amount of the world's population that will be killed in the explosion in New York City (about half of the city's population), based on Lindeman's estimates.
