Heroes 1: We Could Be Heroes

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

He irradiated it. There was a brief flash of the "godsend" symbol in the dust before it blew away.

I so want to like this season. There's so much wasted potential there.

Maya/Alejandro = not worth Sylar-y payoff. Could have been handled without taking up nearly 1/3 of the season's screentime.

Micah/Nikki/Monica = um, why? Nikki working for the Company could have been interesting if they hadn't completely dropped it in favor of killing her in a manner almost as lame as they killed DL.

And nearly everyone else was taking such massive doses of Stupid I can't even talk about it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I like the idea that Peter was somehow mentally impaired. Like, he never quite got his brain back from the amnesia or something. It helps things make sense.

"Oh, Adam's slashing his way through these somewhat innocent people? I'm on board!"

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Did anyone else notice the "World's Greatest Dad" apron? I snerked mightily.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Yeah, I agree about the wasted potential. And I am sick of Sylar, too.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I was bored to tears, and each commercial break didn't instill that old "OMG!!! More! MORE! MORE!!!" that I used to get the first season. And then of course when I realized that Nathan was going to bite it, I spent the next ten minutes cowering under the blankets (not including the first five minutes of Life where I couldn't unclench myself). Knew Nikki was a goner once she went all powerless-badass on the thug, and died the firefighter's death that DL was robbed of.

Art Crawl!!!

The virus definitely got absorbed by Peter. I thought that this meant that he was going to be the one to spread it.

Who do you think Angela was on the phone to at the end?

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

For the first time ever, I want to have a paid LJ account, so I can run a poll about precisely who belongs to the "World's Greatest Dad" apron. *snerk*

It looked to me like Peter destroyed the virus by incinerating it with Ted's power. (and we saw the symbol in the ashes before they blew away. Why exactly? I call red herring.) I was going to say "he must have had a plan for how to destroy it, going in" but then I remembered about all the Stupid. Thankfully, the BroYay was able to apply some Clue.

It better not have been Bennet who shot Nathan. I'm already miffed at him for actually TAKING Bob's deal. Even though it does give him more morally grey character arc. *hugs Bennet*

Nathan got a wallop with the clue-by-four! I want to make out with him. ...Well, I did 'till he got shot. (can we please take back the do-over on Maya and give it to Nathan? pleasepleaseplease?)

Still loving Kristen Bell big-time.

Sigh, why did you have to bring Maya back, Mohinder? Haven't you displayed enough stupid for one lifetime?

I agree that Sylar should have just died at the end of season 1. In fact, even though I love to watch David Anders ham it up, he should have just died, too.

Despite the not-killing of certain people who needed it (some more than others), I really liked this episode. I was on the edge of my seat. And now wanting to know how to make the bastard studios cough up, because I need more Heroes this season!! (BTW, about the "preview"? They don't actually have anything else written, do they? So them saying it'll be back next year is them hoping the strike ends soon?)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

You have to be dumb as Mohinder to be standing in the big bad's vault and not wonder if there is a security camera.
