Synopsis:



Seth Green and Breckin Meyer? The casting director needs to be fired!!

Gizmo

They are apparently comic book nerds...so it kinda fits.

I officially dropped this show yesterday. I was two weeks behind and had no desire to watch. Too bad, for some reason I love this show and dislike it all at the same time.

Hopefully I hear good word of mouth about the next volume so I can jump back in the fray.

One's power is to turn into a werewolf and the other conjures up a fat orange feline cat.

Or maybe this is a universe they created outside of the Heroes World and they wrote themselves into a corner and will start all over again, but somehow the Heroes figure this out ala "Stranger than Fiction"?

Shazam

So this is apparently the start of a new arc. Did you all like how the last one ended?

They lose their power. The end.

Great, an explanation of the eclipse that did absolutely nothing the first time around.

And I actually still like the show but this eclipse thing is a pet peeve of mine.

RoboDad

Then you can stop watching!

Sorry, but you can put me firmly in the camp that doesn't get all the vitriol.

Most of the people here seem to have their own personal "pet peeve" as justification for hating the show, yet most continue to watch. And rant. And watch again. That makes no sense to me at all.

I guess I'm lucky, in that I have no such preconceptions. I'm not trying to define the parameters of the "Heroes universe" to match my expectations of what could, should, or would happen. I'm just letting the story unfold, and finding it quite enjoyable.

I'm just not a fan of a show rewriting it's past and then acting like they never did that. Since when did the eclipse give people powers? Claire would be dead if that were true.

Dan1boy

Hooray for RoboDad...excellent post w/sentiments I've been feeling for weeks regarding the usual negahaters for 'Heroes.'

Settle down - it's just a tv show. If you want logic and linear storytelling, go watch something else. Why, week after week, are there always 2 or 3 people whining and pissing and moaning about plot points? Reality check people: NOBODY here cares if you don't plan to watch the show anymore.

Really. NOBODY.

So, we don't need to read the incessant posts about quitting the show each and every week. Let the people still along for the ride discuss it.

Shazam

I'm still enjoying it.

There are just some incredibly bitter people on here that are still miffed that their Favourite Show was cancelled, supposedly in favour of this "pile of poo".

Gizmo

RoboDad nailed it.

I like the show and watch every week LIVE. If you don't like it, just stop watching and go watch something else.

TGM

by the look of the ratings, they are.

dpz301

poor kristen bell. she got whacked pretty hard.

Sorraffy

seems people are losing their touch .....
Sylar says "I hate Heroes" and nobody who dislikes the show agrees with him??



The Peter/Nathan thing looks as though it'll be a boring "side story" thing, hope it ends quick.

Sylar partly back to his old self and fans rejoice

riley_dude

Who said anything about quiting the show? How did one sentence give everyone the idea I was through with this show?
People are reading way too much into my post and seem a little defensive too.
It clearly says on the commercial that they all lost their powers in this week's episode.

chrisih8u

I can buy people flying and having magical powers, but I cant buy someone liking that stupid crazy fast chick.

I hope this eclipse is an excuse not to give some people their powers back and write them off the show.

majorjoe23

Nathan seemed to have a "Something About Mary" thing going on with his hair in the first scene.

It's been weeks since the start of the show in show time, right? Two significant eclipses? I'm not sure there have been two eclipses as significant as what was shown in my lifetime.

When "Heroes" creator Tim Kring called people who watch his show live "poor saps" and "dipshits," the fan community was outraged. Forums all over the Internet filled up with fans complaining about how Kring was characterizing his audience.

Kring, however, has offered an apology for what he described as a "mangled quote."

"It was made while trying to explain the rise in DVR and online audience for the show," Kring said in an open letter to fans. "I was making the point that these platforms now offer a superior way to watch the show (without commercials, with extra content, commentary, at the audience's convenience, etc.) And went on to say how it's getting to the point where 'watching the show on the air is relegated to the poor saps and dipshits who can't figure out how to program their DVRs.'

"It was a boneheaded attempt at being cute and making a point. Instead, it turned out to be just plain insulting and stupid. I know now how it sounded, but I truly never meant to suggest anything bad about our audience."

Kring said his focus right now is fixing "Heroes" and trying to bring it back to its first-season glory. Ratings have been down for the NBC show the past two years, and there has been some chatter on whether or not there will be a fourth season in recent weeks.

"No one cares more about the fans than we do at 'Heroes,' and no one appreciates them more than me," Kring said. "We are grateful for whatever way people are finding our show. Now more than ever."

DVD Josh

Thank you Cox. Someone please summarize the last five minutes for me which DVR did not see fit to record.

This episode was a mess. All these characters walking around trying to figure out why they don't have powers. Not entertaining in the least.

gmanca

I think the scene where HRG dislocates Sylar's Shoulder but decides not to shoot him and Elle is a microcosm of what's wrong with Kring's direction. He's not going to kill them when he has a chance? Why create a cliffhanger with an absolutely obvious conclusion?

I love the concept of the show but there really is no set plan of what outline the show should follow.

Patman

I realize there was an eclipse going on, but visually, this episode was a chore to watch.
