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.
Yep but the hollowing out of the rapist quarterback took away his name, but not his ability to speak. So memory erasure does not have to be date based, though it seems to include that.
Yeah, but that's what fictional total amnesia always looks like. Is that based on sound real world data about forgetting? If so...is name an event and language something stored somewhere completely different, and therefore not caught in the cleanup?
It's not that it's fiction which makes Occam's razor unreliable for me--it's that it's a fictional power we're hypothesising about. What
is
simple about telepathy other than the norms we've each accepted from the fiction we've read? There isn't one common thing we can centre back on.
the fact that Nathan took him by suprise with the supersonic whoosh seems to argume against mind reading.
What the hell did Evil Dad know? Not that he could fly? Or did he just bargain that he wouldn't?
I think Evil Dad did not know how well Nathan could fly. He may have expected slow hovering; they would be able to grab him before he got very far off the ground.
For someone who seems to know more about the specials than they do about themselves, that's either disappointing or heartening.
In non-Hero related news, last night I saw an old CSI:LV with a beardless Ed Quinn as the rather slimy swinging husband who broke the rules of the swinging neighborhood club by having an affair with his neighbor. He was smirk-tastic!
Yeah - I wonder if Evil!Dads is someone who got there first, rather than being all that . Gettting there first is a hell of an advantage of course, but if the other guy survives long enough youu eventually lose it. For everbody who hates all encompassing conspiracies it would be great if this one turned out to be a rogue agent, his stolen slush fund, and his one superpowered assistant - plus a very small amount of low level hired help.

I told you Nathan's been practicing.

It's possible that the stress of the situation pushed him to a higher level of performance than he'd previously exhibited. Evil!Dad may know a hero's power based upon gathered genetic data but may still need to observe the subject to determine the magnitude of that power.
Well I remember with the cop, Evil!Dad was surprised by how far along his mind reading was. In this case, I'm not predicting - I would totally like to see super-conspiracy turn out to be a small number of not very smart guys.
How to make a Cylon o'Lantern.

I'm willing to buy this, especially considering his less than graceful landing.
