Heroes

Well the writings good I agree, but it's not entirely original. Micah's cousin is just a copy of Taskmaster, and the whole threat last season was a copy of Watchmen.

Well, when it first came out last year, I thought of it as X-Men lite. But I agree, it is a darn good show. But I'm still wandering whatever happened to the girl who could connect with the internet with her mind. She showed up to talk to Ted, the radioactive man, and then they talked to Parkman. After that, she never was seen again. I bought the dvd set, and there were no deleted scenes concerning her. I just wander what happened?

Maybe she caught a virus?

I quite enjoyed the first season, haven't seen the second though, since I'm so busy being edjamakated, but from what I've heard it's kind of gone downhill, which I kind of figured. The poor writers burned themselves out on the first season, and now they've nothing left for the 2nd. Which is why they're all going on strike, to give themselves some thinking time.

Hana Gitleman (The Israeli woman who could access radio and stuff) went up into orbit in a space shuttle to destroy a satellite that could keep track of supers (maybe with that scar thing people Noah Bennet abducted got) She went on a space walk and the satellite started to descend to earth so she used her powers to meld with it. So now she is one with the internet. Not a joke. It was covered in the comics I understand.

That's my problem. I barely got to time to log onto here. I keep forgetting to go to the NBC website and check that out. Maybe one of these days I'll do that.

But this week's episode was great. Not only does Hiro get to talk to his dad before his death, he finds out who kills him. That sneaky sob Adam, who apparently isn't a time traveler, just a long lived (anti)hero. But how did he get his other powers? Like Peter, or like Sylar? And speaking of Sylar, I wander what happened to his powers, and if he'll ever get them back. Not that Suresh will help him, unless it's with a case of lead poisoning! but I'm glad Noah Bennet didn't die. I just wander who gave him Clare's blood? I don't think Bob would have, after shooting Elle. Must have been Suresh. And Parkman is finding out just how far apples land from trees, what with him "pushing" people to do as he bids. Very interesting episode.

I wasn't sure what to make of the series when it first came out, but now I've become a complete addict of it. They really did a terrific job with all the character developments, as well as maintaining a very interesting storyline.

What other powers? I haven't seen him display any other powers. He needed Peter to get him out of the Company facility. He apparently doesn't fly. He's pretty damn good in combat, which you would expect from someone with 400 years of samurai training

, and he's invincible. That's pretty much all I've seen.
