i don't know what it is but i've been feeling blah about the show, especially after last night's episode. it wasn't as exciting as i'd hoped, but it wasn't terrible either. i guess the kid in me wants to see more people using their powers. i want to see some action! and i want more answers.
ahlrighty, if you haven't seen the show, then don't go any further.
so we saw parkman and jessica use their powers against each other this episode, which i was pretty happy about. i've been wanting to see a big confrontation for a while now. grant it, i didn't think jessica needed to break a man (in half) to kill him, but it was shockingly cool. and what on earth is sylar going to do with his newly acquired power to...what's the word i'm looking for...*dematerialize* objects? inanimate objects at that. let's just hope he doesn't use his blobbifying power on people. still, i'm hoping for some kind of confrontation that deals with sylar. i think the only other person who could take him on is peter but would that happen this season?
anyway, yet again, we only get a feel for linderman in a round about way. can we please get him on the show already. i'm pretty frustrated with him being in the shadows. what's the freakin' deal with his ties to everyone?! *sigh*
i keep going back to the idea that maybe linderman is everyone's father. the more i think about it, especially after last night's episode, everything seems to revolve around family. so, i'm beginning to think linderman was a sperm donor. it's okay to laugh--i know i am. besides, this here post is my playground and i'm going to run with all sorts of ideas.
as i was saying, maybe linderman was a sperm donor and that "list" has the names of all his kids. then how do we deal with everyone's ethnicities? we don't. maybe i should have said gene donor instead. anyway, it's driving me nuts that we're not getting much on him and as you can tell, i'm reaching waaay out there for ideas.
speaking of sperm donor, it's obvious claire's mom is pregnant, right? and boy was i disappointed that she turned out to be so underhanded and selfish. poor claire. some family, huh?
then i think about sylar and wonder if we'll ever learn more about his family/parents. seeing as how claire gets to find out about hers, what's taking so long for us to know more about sylar's roots? i mean, this show is about family ties, right? just kidding. but who knows. i still think he's a petrelli. which reminds me, it was interesting to see nathan's mom and how calculating she is. it's like we're really getting to see how people "tick" in this family.
i also noticed the close-ups of nathan's ring, again, but this time we also saw his mom's ring in the shot. i have a feeling it may be a bit of foreshadowing that there might be another storyline to the petrelli family. maybe we'll learn more about sylar. seriously, if we put nathan, peter, their mom and sylar next to each other--the family resemblance is pretty obvious. it's all in the eyebrows and everyone's matching black hair, i say.
btw, i re-watched the episode from last week and i did notice a lot of ticking sounds...the metronome, peters heart beating when he fell onto the cab, and some others ticks scattered here and there. i guess the countdown to the big event is underway. still think the explosion is going to happen? i don't know what to think anymore and it's ticking me off.
oh, and did i hear "someone flies, someone dies," in the next
episode?
i watched the latest episode of heroes, finally! it keeps getting better with each episode. for my friends, or anyone who hasn't seen the show, you're heading into spoiler material now...
i have to say, i don't like the idea of one of my favorite heroes exploding. not one bit. peter was looking rather putrid during the interrogation scene and i still get the feeling that he saved the wrong cheerleader. if he had saved claire's friend, maybe he wouldn't have died, come back to life and be the cause of the world going supernova. something must have happened when peter absorbed claire's healing ability and now hiro and the gang have to figure out how to stop him from exploding. it's all claire's fault. i'm no whiz at reading lips but i'm pretty sure she said "i'm sorry" in peter's dream. yeah, sorry for saying she'd died before and it wasn't a big deal. poor peter.
one of my favorite lines, from this episode, besides hiro's "how do you stop an exploding man?" was a line by claire's friend when they were on the track field -- "are you on crystal meth or something cuz this is really cracky behavior." speaking of cracky behavior. i'm glad to see isaac can predict the future drug free. and his latest painting of hiro and the dragon--didn't we see the future hiro with a sword on the subway in an earlier episode?
kelleah, budd, you both have some interesting ideas about the characters...claire's dad having powers to mute powers and sylar being indestructible if he absorbs claire's power. tell me more!
i'm still trying to figure out how sylar was captured in the first place with such little effort. and since the haitian guy can erase memories, why couldn't he do it to sylar? oh, and does anyone else get the feeling that our heroes are part of some sort of experiment?
i'd love to hear more thoughts about the show...
