Buffy ,'Showtime'
[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!
I was just in the Coffee Bean and, on the entertainment news ticker, the headline was, "Heroes Drops Some Dead Weight."
You keep using those words. I do not think they mean what you think they mean.
Now if they'd really killed Maya, I'd be all for the headline.
I noticed that headline too, Kristen, and was confused.
The backlash over season two's frailties, from the ridiculous amount of time spent following Hiro in medieval Japan to the unfulfilling romantic connection between Claire and West (Nicholas D'Agosto) to the pointlessness that is Peter's dialogue
Hee.
Sigh. Not enough dead weight dropped for me (die Sylar, die already. And take Maya with you, NO REALLY.)
And Nathan never was dead weight.
::disgruntled and grumpy::
While Sylar was at times tiresome when he was with Maya y Alejandro, he's still pretty great with Mohinder, and I'm glad he finally has his damn powers back. I actually didn't like him shooting Maya, not because I didn't want Maya dead, but because it just felt...wrong and brutal, when Sylar generally has more flair. Shooting Maya like that makes him like any other cold-blooded killer.
And Nathan never was dead weight.
I think they kinda turned him into no weight. When I saw him last night, my first thought was, "Nathan! How I've missed your face!"
My second thought was that he needed a haircut.
I dunno, crushing hearing-woman in that garage didn't show me much flair or grace. Fairly brutal, pretty pointless. I AM more interested in him with his power back and I like the socio-lethal aspect of his totally id-driven existence but the writers are going to have to work a bit to make me tingle for him again.
My second thought was that he needed a haircut.
The bumpiness of his hair distracted me, but when he got cleaned up for the press conference, I think I actually sighed out loud.
I was actually a little distracted by how slicked-back his hair was for the press conference. But I am a huge fan of floofy hair.
"Gee, Bad Guy! You have the same virus, guess The Company gave it to you! You're not even torturing me, let me ildly muse for a while and give you lots of valuable information."
In some defense, all the shots of him looking at the surveillance camera made me think he was deliberately stalling any way he could in the hopes that someone would come, rescue him and Molly and kill Sylar. Just like Elle tried. "There is absolutely no need for me to take your blood, but i'm going to act like it is necessary in order to stall." Actually, i was thinking there was some brilliant plan to kill Sylar while taking his blood, but there isn't quite enough smart for that sort of pro-action. But stalling in the hope of being saved? Totally Mo.
