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.

Also, as everyone in the vision is running away from him, Nathan steps up and confronts him. ??? Is Nathan the only one who can save/stop him from going nuclear?

If Peter's about to go kablooey, Nathan might be the one who can prevent him from blowing up everyone else by getting him far, far away.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Am I the only one who got Nathan-as-a-bad-guy vibes from the flashforward?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Nope, Scola. Of course, Nathan's always pretty sketchy, so it's hard to tell.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

No, but then, I think that scene can be interpreted a number of ways.

oooh, good one. This saves the city/world, but they both die as a result. Which could explain the grim expression on Nathan's face. He can't save his brother, and in one last grand acceptance of his powers, he'll also sacrifice himself to save others.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

A fun interview with a couple of writers from Heroes from Comic Book Resources: [link] (Note that they talk about who the Big Casting Spoiler from Spoiler Light is supposed to be about 2/3 way down on the interview.)

But, if you look at the bulk of the names on the show… Isaac. Matt. Peter. Gabriel. Micah. You might see a connection – or you might see a connection that we didn’t see.

Heh. Did they deliberately pick all those names from The Bible? I doubt that the names have deeper meanings, but this will probably get people speculating all the same.

He's shown signs of a psychic link with Nathan before, but no one else, besides mimicing their powers.

Didn't he show one with Simone's dad, right before he died?

(Hey! I bet it's up on rewind! I can watch.)

SPN on iTunes would mean my iPod is doomed. Doooooooooooomed.

Huh. You know, you're right! I suppose it's linked to his all around empathy.
