One of my favorite things about "Nathan" is that they got Matt Parkman to do it. Noah and Angela are the "do that" kids, but for Matt this is pretty big.
Kaylee: Is that him? Mal: That's the buffet table. Kaylee: Well how can we be sure, unless we question it?

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

So very very wrong, yet awesome!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Did they use makeup to make Adrian Pasdar look more like Zachary Quinto or is he just that good of an actor?

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

I was remarking on how Pasdar was holding his body in a few frames. I think the boy's got some chops.
It's nuts: I can see no good coming of this story line, and yet I'm intrigued.
Also, Hiro shined again for me last night, how he doesn't even stop and think before using his powers to save Noah. And the look on Noah's face when he realizes that it was Hiro who opened the door for him ... that sleight smile of, "OK. Now we have a game on."
There were serious flaws in the finale, but y'know, the actors were awesome.

I think the question of 'if Sylar looks like Nathan and has Nathan's memories and thinks he's Nathan, is he Nathan?' is an interesting one and I hope the show's answer is more complicated than 'No'.

-t,
why wouldn't the answer be "no."
I think this is a straight forward issue, right?

From the original Nathan's perspective, yeah there's no argument. He's really most sincerely dead.

Well, what makes him Nathan if it isn't his DNA and thoughts and memories? Where does his Nathan-ness lie?
Eta: If it wasn't Sylar who had taken on Nathan's identity but, say, a Cylon based on Nathan, would that make for a different answer?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
well, how can Sylar know how he would make decisions or his personality quirks?
Sylar only knows some shit about Nathan and perhaps a couple of his mannerisms, but he doesn't know Nathan even as well as Noah does.
This might be a more substantive issue if Peter took on Nathan's life, but I'm not sure I see a whole lot to it if we are talking about some memories and Rich Little impersonation. If we have someone's memories, does Sylar also have the meaning said memories have for people? What they mean in the context of a life?
