I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

Heroes 1: We Could Be Heroes  

[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!

So, Daphne is dead?

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

Does that mean we get another one?

edit:: Hiro that is

I'm watching Heroes on delay.

I've decided to move to that neighborhood in Newark with all the nifty craftsman bungalows.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Someone remind me why this show is called "Heroes", please?

Seriously. Because Peter's mission statement is scaring the bejeezus outa me.

And dude, Matt? If you hadn't gone to where Daphne had been shot, perhaps she wouldn't have lingered there and had the opportunity to be shot? I'm not counting her as dead, yet, though.

Kinda meh on the ep as a whole.

I did love the dichotomy of Peter's parting words with a wood paneled station wagon driving down the highway.

What were they? something about being ready for whatever? The unexpected? I remember that seeing my mum's old car threw me, as I suddenly thought the survivors of Oceanic 815 the prisoner transport were traveling in a family car from a couple decades ago.

They never said whether the rest of the prisoners survived the crash or not, and if the bombing of the plane meant the murder of the still-living people chained and strapped inside.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Parkman only finally used his powers. They shouldn't have been able to capture him in the first place.

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

Kinda meh on the ep as a whole.

I liked it more than last week's, as it's more clearly set up what the rest of the season is supposed to be like. It's not what I expected, but not unexpected. I thought it was going to be a post-crash survival story with enemies having to work together. But instead, it's...what Peter said.

Don't be dead, Daphne! You're cute!

Our wings are not tired.

Meh. Sylar was fun as usual. I agree P-C, Daphne should not be dead. I'm not exactly sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to see next week.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

You know, I was all -- they're killing off or marginalizing ALL the female characters on this show. (Bryan Fuller can't come back soon enough.) It looked like they were writing Tracy out AND killing Daphne off (though we didn't see a body, at least)... and all we've got now is a paltry collection of Guys (most of them not at all bright or at least sensible)....
