You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

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.

Art Crawl!!!

Or would that be lite?

(Did they just show the actor in the preview?)

Oh, please do, sumi...

They sort of did, but I still couldn't tell.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Wow. I am in love with Heroes. It's been a long time since I have been so excited about a show. Is it perfect? No. Kinda predictable? Yeah. Is Mohinder dumb as a box of rocks (and yet still so pretty)? Oh my, yes! But I don't even care.

That was some good show.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Like JenP my love for HEROES just went exponential, probably when Claire punched Jackie (although the punch itself was SMG quality). But stuff is happening. Lots of it.

Also, I'm continuing my hope that Jessica will be a hope-she-does-what-we-want-instead-of-killing-us-when-we-dial-her-up wild card "hero".

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

My love for that scene is now tempered by the fact that Jackie later saved Claire's life by telling her to run for it. It was a selfless act.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

And I loved Pixie the Pusher. She was even a little hot there at the end, with all the black and the cool under fire and such. Did she push (formerly) bad dad to back off of the idea of making Isaac paint another picture? Because I thought that was why he changed his tune from "Give him more drugs" to "Bring Sylar in and I'll keep Claire at home."

But stuff is happening. Lots of it.

Yes! And with the continuity and call-backs that mean something. Like, former BFF pretending to be the hero... reinforced that Claire's not a glory hound and has issues with her, er, skills. And then, here it is again, serving a completely different purpose in the plot. Love it.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I also thought it was a very nice touch that when Jessica is in control, Nikki is the woman in the mirror.

I did, too. I missed a bit with her son - has he been aware of the Jessica/Nikki thing for a while? I was impressed when he realized he wasn't talking to Nikki on the phone last ep (or the one before?), but his conversation with his dad implied that he's known for a bit. Except I missed some of it, so...
