Heroes 1.18

[seldear]

That is a horrible way to start a hiatus!

Awesome ep, although I kept wanting to smack Mohinder and Hiro.

Enough already with the 'Eureka' moments! And the monologuing. Please. Stop with the monologuing!

It was heartbreaking for Mr. Bennett - all his concerns and his issues, his worry for Claire and his wife's strength - and then the betrayal by the really annoying shapechanger. Did she annoy anyone else? She really annoyed me! I just want to smack her down.

You know, I kinda figure that Lindemann is the big man behind Mr. Bennett's company. It's all circular, everyone's intertwined...

Oh yeah, is it just me, or are the Petrellis turning out to be the Summers Family of the Heroes universe?

I'm kinda hoping that Claude bursts out of the woodwork and lays the smackdown on Sylar. And that Mohinder isn't dead. Because he was cute. If clueless. And annoyingly stupid when it came to Sylar. At least get backup, you nitwit!

How long before the next ep screens?

You know if it's this bad at a mere hiatus, imagine how bad the break between seasons will be!

I loved the bit between the Bennetts - that was wonderful. And how she took it so calmly and with the kind of protectiveness you'd expect of a mother who really did love her daughter. I doubted in the earlier episodes because she seemed so vacuous.

Petrelli = Summers is par for the course. I mean, the major storylines hinge around them, and most of the characters tie in to them in interaction or relationship. It's just...scary.

Linderman as Magneto...hehe. Yeah, he had that kind of "you don't want to mess with me, and I'm sharp enough to give you incentive not to" mentality. At least he's more subtle about it than Magneto, if that's what he's trying to do.

I'm rapidly getting over the Nikki/Jessica thing. It was a relief to see Nikki taking over Jessica for a change, but I really want to see Nikki kick Jessica's ass when her family and loved ones are in trouble.

Plus, you were right. the Nathan/Nikki scene in the hotel was hot. He didn't know if he was going to kiss her or kill her.

I know! it finally turned Mrs. Bennett into a sympathetic character and not just a vapid fancier of small yappy canines!

I kept thinking Linderman was going to skewer Scott Nathan with kitchen knives!!

And yeah...They need to have Nikki completely (or almost completely) assimilate Jessica STAT. Keeping access to her powers and all.

Nikki/Nathan was WAY hotter than Jessica/Nathan, actually.
