The whole point of showing Nikki & Micah was to point out that D.L. is dead and that she is leaving Micah with Uhura. Otherwise when they showed Nikki, everyone would be asking where are Micah & D.L.

Don't just look at what has happened, try to piece together where the show is going based on the information that has been presented. Most people on here seemed confused about Sylar's powers being "gone" when it is obvious he has the Virus. The writers has Sylar kill the illusionist to show that he didn't "lose" his old powers, because he cannot use new ones either.

Can we have a real discussion about the show? Good or bad, let's discuss what is going on and where it is all going.


P.S. I think the Wonder Twins are an attempt to gain the Hispanic viewing audience. There may be more to it, but they could have used any ethnicity. Oh, and good job teaching illegals how to get into the US. Heroes will be shown as a training film in Central America after this season.
Me thinks you need to re-watch this episode .....Towards the end it is VERY subtle, but is reveled. I caught a sense of it earlier on, but it wasnt confirmed until I saw something "fade away" .

I am sure it was mentioned earlier somewhere, but if you have a subscription to TV Guide, there have been some spoilers within interviews with the cast.

As far as this season goes, so far it ist too bad for my tastes. I do feel that, the twins story line is dragging right now, but I know (form some things that I have seen\read) that it will pick up soon.

i don't mind a bit of exposition and build up as long as there are good payoffs soon.

give it 2-3 episodes and things should kick off

I'm thinking his new girlfriend is going to turn out to be "special". Every time he uses his power I feel like she's about to tell him what she can do. I got the strongest feeling when she told him she had his back at the "job".

I have to agree with ViewAskewbian and Goldberg74 about people like bunkaroo, Eric D., and Trigger on this board. I will go further and say, stop wasting your time and move on. Quit bitching about how you don't like the show and start watching something else. I am sick and tired of people who whine about "giving it 2 or 3 more episodes". Move on already and go someplace that will make you happy.

Ah, see I notice anything along those lines. I got that it was HRG dead and Claire in the background, but what makes you think it was by her hand?

So I have to like every episode that airs no matter what? I didn't know the forum was run that way. Believe it or not I'm entitled my opinion, (which I backed up with reasons why I didn't like it). And it's no secret that this season has had a very rough start and if it kept going downhill I was not going to waste time on it.

Now if you look for my comments on this weeks episode thread, you'll see I thought it was decent. The storyline with Matt's father really saved it and will keep me watching for the time being.

I think there is a lot of frustration because there was a lot of anti-Heroes backlash building and a lot of generalized complaining over the slow second season start to a show with a slow first season start. I'd like to hope negative reaction is allowed (I've done my share of venting about shows like LOST in the past), but taken as a whole it just seems a little overwhelming. I personally would hope to see that the negative reaction is more than just (quoted from this week's Heroes thread with user name omitted because this is bigger than one user):

Wow, another shite episode. Ugh!
That really doesn't contribute any more than "can't wait" before the show or "awesome" after the show does. I'd hope we all try to go beyond that level of discussion. It can get frustrating when the response is so negative and so devoid of more than what looks like threadcrapping. Honestly, I didn't react to what I quoted above well in the current week's thread. That's not anyone's fault but mine, but there is only so much of that anyone can read before occasionally snapping.

I'm glad you liked the last episode, and I hope you continue telling us about shows you don't like so well, particularly if you're going to discuss them in the same spirit a lot of us have been discussing shows with for a while now.
