(the guy in Mohinder's apartment, and taunting Mohinder in the cab).
That was Claire's dad, wasn't it?
You know what they say about payback? Well I'm the bitch.

Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Yes, that was Claire's dad.
I'm not getting their agenda. I have assumed that the reason that Claire was adopted was because her dad thought she'd develop powers but then it seems like his mission is to destroy the people with the powers.
I am still loving Hiro. And now - also Greg Grunberg's character and was that Joan of Arcadia's best friend as a police detective?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
was that Joan of Arcadia's best friend as a police detective?
I'm not sure about that, but we were just talking in natter about how the cop who arrested Greg Grunberg was Clea Duvall (Marcie the invisible girl, among other roles).

The brunette?
I saw her in the credits but I didn't recognize her.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
That was Claire's dad, wasn't it?
The guy taunting in the cab was. The pest control guy in Mohinder's apartment was someone else. (Claire's dad was in the father's apartment in Madras, which also seemed a bit clumsy. I mean, leaving your cell phone on whilst lurking about?)

I find the super-solemn treatment of Heroes off-putting. But I guess that's why I don't read superhero comics.
And the evil conspiracy of Anti-Heroes, meh. I'd like someone to stop the conspiracy of people who want every TV show to feature a conspiracy. I imagine the creators saying, "Turns out that building up plausible conflict takes a lot of work, so how about instead we throw in an omniscient, omnipotent, ill-explained cabal, and then we can take a long weekend?"

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm disappointed mostly because I assumed that the freaking premise would be more or less established by the end of the 2-hour pilot. In a more specific way than "There are people with powers who are important for some reason, and some other people want to kill them."

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I watched last night's Heroes for the first time. When Bob asked me what happened I was like, "uh..." because nothing freaking happened!

The pacing of last night's Heroes seemed really slow. Slower than molasses... more like glass. Other than introducing Grunberg's character, I don't recall much progression beyond the first episode. And I agree that I thought we'd have figured out what the premise was by now. Hopefully it picks up a bit or I think it's going get old fast.
