    Wtf is up with Sylar in that promo? And Clair shoots future Peter in the chest, which does **** all. Aaaand, surely she realises that waiting before shooting any peter if a bad idea....what with him being able to stop (or really slow down) time.

    Still, loving it so far.

    It's probably mostly because she being a little bitch and panicking. Once the panic was over she was fine. Surely you've seen a teenage girl having a "panic attack" at some point.

    Sylar partnering up with Mr. Muggles in the kitchen is the only thing that could be better than him and Noah.

    TBH at the moment, I don't really care how bad the writing in the episodes is getting because I'm enjoying it an awful lot. I can completely overlook the plot holes at this stage because I still find it very entertaining. Even still, I found it a little ridiculous that noah forgave Sylar that easy.

    RE the Clare's mom oxygen debacle, considering that Fire draws all the oxygen around it and Clare's mom is more or less made of fire is it not possible that she drew in the fire as well. After all, even if theirs relatively little oxygen, a fire will still be grand until it's gone and she probably doesn't sweat at all considering her power

    oh i guess that what her name? Tracy? wont live very long. Syler had her power in season 1's episode "5 years on"

    If I remember correctly, when Molly's parents were killed in one of the first episodes, wasn't her dad sitting at the table, FROZEN as well as missing the top of his brain?

    Also, when Sylar visited his mother, he turned water from the tap into snow flakes to make the room resemble a snow globe.

    All suggesting Sylar has the ice/freezing power already.

    Is there any spoilers around? So I can read and decide what'll be worth watching without having to sit through the rest of the crap?
    A bit below average...

    Noah's already captured Sylar once, surely that means he already has some idea of his weakness?
    That was by using the girl who could make people do whatever she said was it not => telling Sylar not to hurt her and to come with her?

    And what was that with Parkman? The African guy's walkman imbues future painting powers?
    Yeah, that was a bit WTF???

    Well he is from the future, so who knows how many extra powers he's got, he's giving David Blaine a run for his money that's for sure.
    Which of course raises the Q:
    From the first series (he absorbed Ted and Parkman's by simply being near them) we saw that Peter doesn't require a person to use their power around him to absorb it, he simply has to be near them and then at some point figure out how it works, whether by accident or intent.
    As such doesn't this mean that he should have the powers of the body he was stashed in now, since when his future self freed him he was in the bank and behind his former host body, and more importantly he should have all the powers his future self had collected too?
    If he has does this not create a problem since simply by virtue of encountering himself in the past future Peter may have made massive changes to the future by unintentionally giving his present self a major power boost, or can he not absorb powers from himself?

    Sylar had that power when he killed his supposed mother and when subsequently he broke the kensei sword. Sylar got the power from a truck driver in a comic available on the nbc website placed sometime before the series starts: molly walkers father is frozen to death if you recall.
    Which also brings up the fact that he must have at some point absorbed a speedster since he could move in Hiro's "frozen time".

    And why was Nikki's body in a coffin in a house with no one in it apart from her young son? And why wasn't she decomposed even a bit?
    Or better yet; burned, she died in a burning building FFS!?!?


    And the obvious Q on the whole Hiro/Ando story is WTF doesn't Hiro just go back in time and stop himself from opening the safe?:confused: Or better yet put piano wire across the door to his office while present him opens the safe, that'd solve the speedster issue sharpish.:D

    its against hiro's character entirely to do something like put piano wire across his door, he's not that big into killing and even when he has to he has that ingrained sense of honor about him. As for time travel he's too afraid to go back in time anymore. After all, everytime he or his future selves has done it its either made things worse or made things no better than they already were.
    Which also brings up the fact that he must have at some point absorbed a speedster since he could move in Hiro's "frozen time".

    We long discussed that when it happened. Sylar didn't move in frozen time, more when Hiro began his swing with the sword he lost his concentration and the normal flow of time resumed then and there. Like I said, it went against Hiro's character to kill Sylar in frozen time and he had a hard enough time fighting himself over the desicion while trying to keep a hold on space-time. The thread is still there somewhere if you feel like digging it up, but that was the general consensus to a point.

    Enjoyed the first 3 episodes of this series, this last one in particular.

    Its a total mess with a frightening amount of plotholes, but a thoroughly enjoyable mess nonetheless.

    (It'd be nice if Channel6 managed not to lose bits of dialogue/action when they cut to a commercial).

    This has being the best episode IMO of the series so far its the first one where i've gone oh next week please!

    And claire sweaty, i feel so wrong thinking obscene thoughts about her! Don't want to end up in prison or anything!

    I think Noah has to have powers everybody that works for the company has powers its how they got there.
    Maybe his power is only wearing and collecting glasses from the 60's. No matter where he is he can find the exact pair!

    Claires real mother didn't burn all the oxygen out of the container she did the form of torture where she thought she was suffocating. She actually explained it.

    Like the story arc were they have another painter character with the weird eyes i really enjoyed that in season1.
    I know hiro and ando where always supposed to be comic relief but they have outstayed there welcome just a little.

    I enjoy the nods/plagiarism from xmen and the fly plus others.
    Hopefully from now on they are starting to get over the holiday fever they had of the long break with the writers stike, get the thumb out and make us happy with some more of claire and nikki/jessica/(new name?) in cats suits at all time!

    Hmm... just thinking on the whole "one of us, one of them" thing, didn't Noah say that to Mrs. Petrelli, as though he doesn't know she has powers? Seems odd to me that he wouldn't know that each of the founders has/had powers, especially when he knows both her sons have powers. Maybe I'm just overanalysing though.:o
