Official "Heroes" discussion thread - Caution: Speculation and Potential Spoilers

[scottny]

What! No comment on Monday night? Like it, hate, what?

it was ok. I hate the peter storyline. I also hate the 2 new characters, the brother and sister. I also want Hiro back with Ando, they were hysterical together, now he is not so funny.

I was surprised by the painting.

I'm not entirely convinced that Kensei is THE Kensei, the one that the legends are about. A part of me thinks that Kensei is actually Hiro.

Hmmmm.....interesting!

 

[apirateslifeforme]

Hmmmm.....interesting!

I could very well be wrong. I think I've been wrong about everything else, so I usually just don't bother speculating!

Yeah - me too. I am not sure why. And Claire is working a nerve with me - I can't stand how whiney she is this season.

I guess I just don't like how fractured they all are. I mean we waited all last season for all of them to come together and here they are all split apart again.

I thought this too but isn't that broken now cause Kensei did the task of getting that thing the other night and so now he knows he can do it all. I don't know very confusing.

I just want Hiro back in normal time.

Yep, I think the same thing. I also think that Japanese girl is going to find out Hiro was posing as Kensei, and she will end up mad at the other guy and falling for Hiro, and he will bring her back to present day with him. I'm probably completely wrong on this one.

I guess I just don't like how fractured they all are. I mean we waited all last season for all of them to come together and here they are all split apart again.

They are probably trying to recreate last season in a way -- start out with them apart, and then bring them together gradually.


The 2 new ones, Maya and Alejandro... get on with their story already!! It seems like every episode, the exact same thing happens to them. They are running, almost get caught, she black-goos their eyes, he makes it better. Blah di blah blah blah. She is such a weak character, I just want to slap some sense into her and tell her to quit her sniveling already! I'd like to see something else happen with them and find out how they fit into the grand scheme of things, and find out more about the black goo. It seems like every time Alejandro takes the black goo away, he absorbs a little more of it. I wonder if it will end up killing him?

 

[Kycha]

Honestly, I just can't get into the show this season. I still feel burned from that horrible season finale. And as much as I like Sylar as a villain, he should be dead. That was what the whole first season was leading up to. This climactic showdown between Sylar and our Heroes. That was such a huge letdown. Last season I couldn't wait until Monday rolled around. I anticipated watching the show every week. This year, not so much. Last week, I completely forgot about it. And this week, I accidentally stumbled upon it.

Some thoughts...

I am not very fond of the episodes so far this season (next week's looks promising though.)

I HATE Peter's new gaunt look, but especially the hair.

Don't like Claire's new boyfriend. And how suspicious is it that a guy with powers just "happens" to buddy up with her?

I loved it when HRG/Bennett got nasty with that supervisor jerk.

I'm with the posters who dislike the characters' separate story arcs. (Put Ando back with Hiro.)

WOW, Nichelle Nichols as Micah's grandma?!? Too cool. (And she still looks quite "fine".) And she's from New Orleans AND her house is obviously set up with a voodoo vibe.

Has Grandma Petrelli died yet? Any theories about her powers?

I'm with the poster re: the Maya/Alejandro storyline...sheesh, is anything going to *HAPPEN* or is she just going to keep on killing/stunning people over and over and over again, every. single. episode.

Characters I wish would/could come back: Claude, Simone, D.L., Hiro's dad
(Hey, if they brought back Mr. Nakamora[sp?] and he had a scene with Micah's grandmother...Trek Heaven eh?)

agnes!

 

[Charade]

If you're are a Netflix member, they have all season 2 (and most of season 1) episodes available to view online. My DVR stopped about 30 seconds short on Monday and I just watched the last minute. I think it needs to pick up a little more steam.

 

[lyzziesmom]

I was confused when Niki left Micah with that lady, was she supposed to be his grandmother? That would make her DL's mom? Didn't we meet DL's mom early in the first season, before we actually met DL? I thought she lived in Vegas and if I'm not crazy, she was played by a different actress.

I love this show, but sometimes trying to figure it out makes my head spin.

 

[RUDisney]

They really didn't say who she was, only that she was a relative and Micah didn't know her.

Why didn't the twins try to rush out of the police station when Alejandro "cured" Maya? If he made everyone well again, and the other convict wanted them to help him escape, what was taking the police so long to come to again?

 

[MARY-IN-OH]

If Claire's "boyfriend" had a run in with HRG, who is Claire's dad, then why did HRG move his family to right where he lives? does that mean that HRG wanted her to hook up with him?

 

[JenM]

I'm not entirely convinced that Kensei is THE Kensei, the one that the legends are about. A part of me thinks that Kensei is actually Hiro.

That's what I think too. I've also heard a few theories that Kensei is actually related to Linderman, which is why he has the sword.

I'm not sure what I think of the twins just yet...they do remind me a little of the Nikki and Paolo characters on Lost, and that's not a good sign.

Oh, but speculating is so much fun! And gives a way to get a fix when it isn't on or we have to wait a whole week for the next bunch of questions!

I think I read somewhere that she is DL's aunt, not his mother.

I think it will pick up quite a bit in the next episodes, as they get closer to America. She was a bit more in control in the police station, didn't fall apart when they were seperated before she got to the jail, even though she leaned on the wall outside his cell? They say she feels to much and it brings on the goo.

The Canadian promo brings a whole new twist on it. you can see it at youtube, if you wish. And listen closely to the last line spoken if you do!

Umm.. the kid and the car? Any ideas? <tee hee>

 

[katlas&kids]

Some thoughts...

I am not very fond of the episodes so far this season (next week's looks promising though.) Oh, yeah!

I HATE Peter's new gaunt look, but especially the hair. Yes but the bare chest & muscles!! And what power does Caitlin have with him? She says no and he stops? But I did like that "Sylar" smile he had when he had Will on the wall! And why did they jsut let Will go?

Don't like Claire's new boyfriend. And how suspicious is it that a guy with powers just "happens" to buddy up with her? Stalker boy! Wonder if he is a plant and knows more than he lets on. Also, it will make a battle between HRG & Claire. did you see her glare at him through the door window? OUCH!

I loved it when HRG/Bennett got nasty with that supervisor jerk.

I'm with the posters who dislike the characters' separate story arcs. (Put Ando back with Hiro.) But at least we are seeinghow tey are, kinda, trying to cope with who they are

WOW, Nichelle Nichols as Micah's grandma?!? Too cool. (And she still looks quite "fine".) And she's from New Orleans AND her house is obviously set up with a voodoo vibe. Not his grandma I don't think. More of cousins. WE met DL's mom before during last season. But cool!

Has Grandma Petrelli died yet? Any theories about her powers?

I'm with the poster re: the Maya/Alejandro storyline...sheesh, is anything going to *HAPPEN* or is she just going to keep on killing/stunning people over and over and over again, every. single. episode. Hang in there. Remember we tough NIki needed to go last year.

Characters I wish would/could come back: Claude, Simone, D.L., Hiro's dad
(Hey, if they brought back Mr. Nakamora[sp?] and he had a scene with Micah's grandmother...Trek Heaven eh?)

agnes!

On the NIki note, why is she giving herself TO the company? Wonder what she has up her sleave?

And who is running the company now and since they are tearing down the Casino, where did all of Linderman's treasures/collection go?

 

[lyzziesmom]

Oh, but speculating is so much fun! And gives a way to get a fix when it isn't on or we have to wait a whole week for the next bunch of questions!

It's really fun to go waaaay back in this thread to the first few episodes and see what everyone was speculating back then, knowing now how it turned out!

 

[katlas&kids]

They really didn't say who she was, only that she was a relative and Micah didn't know her.

Why didn't the twins try to rush out of the police station when Alejandro "cured" Maya? If he made everyone well again, and the other convict wanted them to help him escape, what was taking the police so long to come to again?

I think that Alejandro gets very weak after he does his thing. The kid seemed to come to pretty quick and was helping him out. Maybe cause the cops were older, out of shape, and closer to her when she went off?

But who is he and why was he there? And, yeah, I knowpart of the answer but want you to think!
