Synopsis:



Jayma Mays from Glee guest stars once again as Charlie. 12 more to go.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I liked Charlie. Hopefully Hiro redeems himself a bit in this episode.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I liked her too. I thought she actually brought out alot of good in Hiro.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

:lol:

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Very funny. I meant she actually made Hiro not act like a fucking buffoon the last few seasons.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Charlie was a great character for her short arc in Season 1, but it seemed as though the writers ignored her and her influence on Hiro in subsequent seasons. For lack of a better comparison, I suppose you could compare her to Gwen Stacy, as she somewhat drives the hero towards a confrontation with the villian. The writers have instead turned Hiro into a bumbling mess, for shame.

Hopefully, the return of Charlie can serve as some sort of bookend to Hiro's place on the show, because if the show does last to another season, I'd like to see Hiro gone.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

So you wanna know who was fired from heroes?

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

How'd that happen? Any links to the story?

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

You'll know in the next few days. There is no 'official' links yet.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Well, he hasn't been on so... not much of a spoiler. :(

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Wow! Hiro had a point there with Sylar's future.

If Hiro goes now, I will have more respect for him than I did before... but I doubt they'll get rid of him anytime soon. ;)

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I broke the news before she did ;) Mwuaha

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Have we ever seen Elizabeth Rohm's character before tonight?

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

They're the lucky one. Sinking ship.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I only saw a few minutes of this tonight (as noted above), but...

Rohm-bot is in this now? :jawdrop:

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Only in flashbacks. I doubt we'll see her again.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Yuck... she'll be around for awhile:

Loved one of the comments though...

... her ability is to turn every line she has into something wooden. - Jeff

:lol:

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

The ep didn't get interesting until the last 5 minutes. :(

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I had the opposite reaction. It might be the best Hiro episode of the entire run of the show...definitely for the past few seasons. I could nitpick the hell out of it, but I liked it anyway. The Rohm stuff was dead-air, but otherwise, I dug it up till the end. Instead of teasing at what the affereffects of Hiro's meddling was, it was just "gasp! Where's Charlie?" "It was all part of my mwah-hah-hah-nefarious scheme!"

I don't know if THE BIG REVEAL at the end is something Samuel should try to atone for. Wouldn't most Heroes viewers put him on their Christmas card lists for that? :)

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Yeah, I rather enjoyed the setup they were building to about Charlie messing up the time-space continuum but because of the serialized nature of the show, that cliffhanger would work better. Perhaps Charlie being stuck in time doesn't affect what would have happened; it would be like she died of that aneurysm.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Rohm-bot: she give me wood, the wrong kind of wood.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Are their any plans to release a vol.3 in their graphic novel series?

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I just picture Charlie trapped in one of those flat pieces of glass, spinning through space like in Superman.

This episode was meh for me. They've run so out of ideas that they have to revisit earlier season plots and re-write them?


It was cool seeing Isaac and mini-Bilson again though. Was any of that stock footage, or did they really bring them back for such a small appearance?

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I'm pretty sure that was all leftovers from season one.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Gee that was more informative. I want to know what was the inspiration for the decision. Was that person being a jerk on set? Did they just run out of stuff for the character to do? As mentioned, the character has essentially been "gone" for quite some time now anyway...

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I really like this episode. However why did hiro keep saying that "brain man" aka sylar killed Charlie, I was under the assumption that sylar did kill charlie but hiro went back and saved her, then she eventually died of an aneurysm, hiro made it sound like no matter what he did, sylar ends up killing her.

P.S Did t-bag call mohinder "joseph"

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I don't know why the entertainment news outlets are making such a fuss about Pasdar leaving the show. The fact that the real Nathan was killed off at the end of last season only meant a matter of time before Pasdar's fake Nathan would be off the show.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

It's about friggin time. How many times can they kill this character and bring it back? Enough already.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I haven't been watching this season. Nathan came back? I thought he was officially dead at the end of Season 3?

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

If you watched the final episode of last season, Parkman implanted his memories into Sylar and he shape shifted into Nathan.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

but didn't he transform back, coming up from the grave, walking around the carnival and is truly dead? i thought he was already as of a few weeks ago which is why the new announcement really wasn't a surprise to me.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

well, that's the thing. it shouldn't be a surprise since he is already dead.

i assumed that since sylar is back, we won't see nathan anymore.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Yeah I know he did, but Anubis said he hasn't watched any episodes this season.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Yeah, you'd think in the process of putting all those clips from that episode together, someone would've...y'know, watched 'em. You're right. They're wrong.

Isn't the timeline completely off anyway? I thought Claire was grounded before the homecoming game for slugging that other cheerleader.

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

I know it's just Heroes, but it still wouldn't have killed you to use some spoiler tags. Thanks a lot. -ohbfrank-

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

Dude, the episodes that I am talking (season 3 finale and what has happened so far) have already aired. It's not like I'm spoilering something that is suppose to happen later this season. The character was already killed off.

Why are you even looking in this thread if you haven't seen season 3 and season 4 thus far?

Re: Heroes -- "Once Upon a Time in Texas" -- 11/02/09
 

What is the overall opinion on the character who appeared at the very end of the show (we have not seen him so far in season 4)?

I did not want to spoil it.

Hiro made sure that he sent his past self back in time to meet Charlie in the first place. I suspect that if Hiro fixes T-Bag's problem, the writers will forget about the paradox and forget to ensure that T-Bag likewise pursues Hiro to set the sequence of events in motion.

I thought Parkman changed her memories so she thinks she's a high school counselor secretly in love with a choir coach.
