Connor ,'Not Fade Away'
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the show and ancillary materials such as web comics! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. Chuffa, Chuffa!
ew ew ew, I thought the "prank" was supremely fucked up and made me dislike Claire on par with my dislike of West.
On this side of the fence. She needed to be pranked, but I didn't like the method.
Happy enough to have Peter back, but why oh why do we have Irish chick?
Bottom line, Sylar needs to get his power back because the show is a bit cast heavy. Of course, HRG can do some of the thinning out too.

I agree with this, and I also thought it was supremely stupid for a girl who is supposed to be trying to blend in.
Is New Orleans' chick's accent as terrible as I think it is?
Yes. I complain every week. The whole New Orleans thing throws me completely out of the story. From the crap accents to the chick saying, "Half this county.." It doesn't even look like New Orleans.
Well, Japan looked extremely Californian this week. The dryness really had me noticing it. . .of course, it looks v. Californian every week just even more so this week.
I don't think the prank was that effed up -- bitchy girl and everyone else end up thinking she drank too much.
Not my favorite episode last night. It made me realize how few of the storylines I actually care about this season.
I'm sorry, but Hiro in Japan is killing me. I am so bored now. Although I did like the return of Kensei calling him Carp and Ando is still the cutest thing ever. We better get some serious payoff.
Los gemelos aburridos continue to bore (and now with extra, added stupid). Loved Sylar creepily creeping at pretty boytwin. Would love it even more if it turns out that he could secretly speak English all along. Please kill them already. And if Sylar and black goo girl wind up having some twisted love affair, I will hurt someone.
Claire and West. Bored. Again. Some more. I don't care about her noble fight to rid West Covina High of some snobby Heathers. Wherever this story is going, it needs to get there real fast. And for the love of dog, that boy is tore up. I cannot get behind the bowl cut and think, "Ah, yes. That's the hotness."
Monica's accent is killing me. And it's not even bad New Orleans. It's bad generic southern. Killing me. I did like her again last night (loved the bit on the balance beam) and I'm kinda interested in her going all St. Joan on NO with Micah as her super-tech support. Think of the Batcave they could build! I also thought she got a little suspicious of Santa Tobby there at the end, which was a good thing.
I've realized that I have no interest in Peter among the oirish if he insists on remaining fully clothed. And so, he survived the nuclear explosion and became some kind of secret spy working with others to take down the OWI and then got amnesia and then wound up in Ireland? Ooooookay. Bring back KB or shirtlessness or something cause that dog won't hunt.
I missed Matt Parkman. Never thought I would say that. I want more of the Matt and Nathan show. I want more 3M.
I totally thought that Jessica was now the dominant personality (even without the wavy hair of evil). Again, though, not really interested in the Mo-Nikki/Jessica pair.
HRG and the Haitian. Made. of. Awesome. HRG is the man.
I agree with this, and I also thought it was supremely stupid for a girl who is supposed to be trying to blend in.
It was stupid and teenage and I totally dug it. This is the girl who dealt with a teen rapist by ramming his car into a wall. Claire doesn't do low-key any more than her badass daddy does. (And OMG that was twisted and wrong and awesome.
There's definitely some (if not all) of Jessica in Niki's "integrated" personality.
I don't think the personality has integrated yet, and indeed, we have no evidence at this point to say when we're seeing Nikki, ikkiN or a fusion persona. Consequently, if we take everything we've been led to assume and flip it on its head, it could have been Nikki storming out and trying to throttle Bob, and ikkiN playing nice in the hospital bed. Doesn't matter either way to me, I love when Al Larter gets to project a touch of menace.
Awesome episode, all around.
I've put my finger on why the NOLA storyline bugs -- it's not so much that the accents and/or details are wrong, it's that Katrina doesn't belong in this universe.
For me it's definately the accents and the details. Using county instead of parish was a stupid, stupid mistake that would not have been made had anyone spent 5 minutes learning anything about Louisiana. It makes the whole storyline look exploitative.
wheezes
kat perez, you need to review all television, because OH MAN.
it's that Katrina doesn't belong in this universe.
A thousand times YES.
