Well, fuck you very much C&L. There goes resolving the Richard-Widmore story.

Heroes lost its entertaining factor after the first season

Finally!!

My satellite crapped out for a split second... what happened to Richard???

He got hit by the smoke monster like the smoke monster was Terry Tate.

Thought Ben couldn't kill Widmore?

Wait wait, but is he done for?

Who knows. They didn't show anything else.

Ooh, maybe he can't.

This episode is muuuuuuuch better than the last one.

They really were just notes. Who is going to hold Jacob to it?

Finale will redeem this whole season

Absolutely loved that.

It only means something unless we say it means nothing!

I thought it was perfect.

I'm starting to believe this. This episode has a nice feel to it and it is great to hear Locke say that he is ready to get out of the chair and let go.

So far, this seems to be on the right track. I'm pissed off that it is likely I'm not getting specific important answers, but it looks more promising than last week that we might get some sort of satisfying resolution out of this.

I'm going to go ahead and say placing last week's episode where it was tops the Terrence & Phillip South Park episode by a mile in terms of biggest prick scheduling of a non-sequitur episode in the midst of a story arc.

Yeah, I almost feel like last week's episode was just to shut everyone up about answering mysteries by showing how completely contrived and shitty it would be if they did. If the finale's as strong as this episode, I'll be perfectly happy pretending the one from last week was never made.

This episode has been pretty decent. Except that I don't know if Richard is dead or not.

Likely not. Can MIB even kill Richard?

Actually, last episode is making a lot more sense thanks to this episode.

Michelle!

Holy shit. Ana Lucia.

Well played, C&L. Well played.

Flash-sideways and Desmond are both the shit.
