Marvelous casting on geriatric Charlie. I actually had to check IMDB to make sure it was a different actress and not an exceedingly well-made-up Jayma. Best part of the ep!
Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

Wacky thought: suppose Claire revealing her Specialness puts our Heroes into a dark future like what they were trying to avoid in Season One, and further suppose that this somehow allows the two timelines to converge. Maybe Peter's Irish girlfriend could make another appearance!
It looks even wackier typed out than it sounded in my head, but I still like it.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Yes, and then they will merge with the Lost timelines!

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
If they brought back Badass!Hiro, I'd totally start watching again.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Finally caught up on the season and "meh."
WTF was up with none of the Carnies blinking an eye when Edgar came back, considering he was accused of Joseph's murder? At least he apparently hadn't forgotten and sided against Samuel.
Did love old Charlie in the hospital. (And agree with the awesome casting there.) Props to Ando for calling Hiro on his motivation, and props to Hiro for actually telling Charlie what he planned to do instead of just going off and doing it without regard to her own wishes.
Also, I have to think Charlie made out pretty well, considering her encyclopedic memory probably gave her a very good idea of what was going to happen and make plans accordingly.
Not thrilled about Claire outing everyone, or "good" Sylar, as we've heard this tune before and it wasn't very compelling back then.
That said, if they play up his ability to assume other identities (personality-wise, not necessarily the shape-shifting power) and couple that with clever uses of his powers, it could make for some very interesting television. But I don't trust the writers to be able to manage that.
Apparently now that Nathan is actually dead (maybe), the Matt doing something bad-assed to neutralize Sylar only to have it undone in the following episode is the new "Nathan dies".
Glad the Carnie storyline is finally over.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Rumours of a 13 episode finish-up season. Though I've heard at least one cast member has made other commitments already.

Kind of a relief.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Well, with this news, Lost ending, Law and Order cancelled and Flashforward cancelled my tv viewing will be a bit less crowded next year...
