This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
But he sounded like he'd stopped believing in powers entirely.
Exactly.
>I did understand his doubts to an extent -- a kid shows up on his doorstep, claiming to have powers, but, uh, he can't really demonstrate it because maybe he has to be around other people in order to jump-start whatever his powers might be? I bet he'd have been more into it if Peter had shown up and levitated outside his door or something.
Also, after having just chased a Petrelli brother down for thinking he had powers, I would think it would be exciting as all get-out to have another Petrelli brother--one who isn't ignoring you and is actually claiming he *has* powers--show up at your door. It would have been the proverbial light at the end of the proverbial tunnel.
Not that I like saying proverbial or anything.
A review of Torchwood with mildish spoilers. I saw an ad for it last night and thought 'This is spun off from
Doctor Who
?' But there's
lesbian groping and jets of blood.
It's DW's 'edgier' cousin.
The ads make it look unattractively edgy. Like 'Look how edgy we are. We're composed entirely of edges. We have no sides.'
The sudden over-the-top scepticism felt a bit contrived to me.
he sounded less skeptical and more irritated, I think. I think that Mohinder really went out on a limb (for him) chasing down the elder Petrelli, and now he feels like an ass. He's been avoiding his father's work, he finally chooses to believe, and his first attempt to move forward is soundly rebuffed.
That was my take too, Vortex. He went from being a respected professional to driving a cab, some freaky shit happened, and then he got treated like a crazy person, not only by Petrelli's goons but probably by the cops he brought back to Sylar's suddenly empty apartment, and now he's chasing after a drug addict on the word of a guy who SAYS he's a super. Less of a reversal of thought than just, "WTF am I doing? This is ridiculous, I'm a respected scientist! I'ma take my shit and go home, before I get arrested or worse!"
He'll get over it. As soon as he sees someone fly or something.
I really, really meant to post earlier.
Amusing Smallville. The Ollie-actor can't, can he? But his super-specialized arrows and extra green light is fun.
Okay, I got a call from my credit card company in the very important last five minutes of Supernatural -- I'll be rewatching that.
Huh. I was told that Summer Glau was in this episode. I don't think I saw her. But another good episode -- lots of good brotherly moments. Plus, different and exciting GREEK zombification. Who knew?

Not me, but I can see how easy it might be to turn fraternity brothers into zombies. They're most of the way there already, right?
Yeah, not THOSE Greeks. Although, there was a college campus involved.

IMDB says she was Angela (zombie chick), but she was very much not. Huh. The CW site says it was her as well. Last minute casting change?
