Wasn't a bad episode...

The review doesn't make it sound like the B it was given though, and I wouldn't give it a B.  Between a C and C maybe.  Regardless, this is the best Heroes season in a while.

This show has inadvertantly become a comedy. Peter tells the deaf girl he'll call her later. That's the staggering attention to detail used for this show. ugh.

I thought that line was a little stupid myself.

only watched the last 20 min... and feel like a better person for it...

I did like the ending, but it looks like it's gonna spin tires for a few more weeks...

I predict...

Claire mad at Dad

Hiro in Hospital, still fighting death, but still get out of the hospital in time to save the day

Peter save the cellist (BTW couldn't he have talked to her instead of smashing her cello to bits?)

Sylar torturing heros and eluding capture

Peter mad at mom

This show is losing it fast... THANK GOD FOR LOST

This is not so much directed at the reviewer as I think a B is fair! Is Heroes full of plotholes and bad logic and sometimes not so great writing? Yes, but it is nowhere near as bad as most people who don't like it try to make it out to be! And it is still better than having yet another Law & Order to watch instead! This is probably the closest we will will ever get to a live action X-men tv show in our lifetime! And no Mutant-X doesn't count! Once this show is off the air, there are not going to replace it with another genre show! If thats what you're thinking you're just plain wrong! It will be replaced by "I'm a Hasbeen Quasi-celebrity and will work a fake job on camera as long as you pay me!". So I'm willing to accept it for what it is because our options are limited and a better version of this show is not going to be coming along any time soon! BTW do you know what they plan on replacing Leno with? Another Law & Order! So celebrate people because apparently thats what you want!

" For the first time we get to see what Mama Petrelli's visions look like"

what? i remember at least one other time that ma petrelli's dreams have been seen. and i am pretty sure that the dreams peter used to have way back in season 1 were because of his mother.

NOTAFAN,

I understand what you're saying but let me put up a differing arguement. I'd suggest that we Maniacs and genre lovers have a better critical eye for creativity and openness for new ideas than the Law and Order crowd. We have a tendency to be able to suspend reality and understand the point easier than the masses.(not saying we're better, but, maybe... OK, we're better)

Poor quality genre material isn't better than bad regular tv though.  Just makes it harder to be taken seriously. Heroes may be doing more damage than good to our genre on network tv.

Notafan, I agree...

And jdiggity , I agree...

I used to defend Heroes tooth and nail, but I just can't take it anymore... they need something to happen, At least with Law and Order (No I don't watch it) stuff happens...

maybe Heroes should try a few short story arcs, instead of one gigantic one that lets me down

NotAFan, are you saying you actually "are a fan" of Heroes?  I can't really the recall the last time you said anything positive about a show.

i do like that this episode does lead towards. good team vs bad team since now it seems noah, hiro, ando and suresh are together and on the same page (mostly), With parkman looking like he will shortly be on the way to join them.

but my big fear is wheels spinning for couple episodes.

anyone else creeped out by the direction the sylar storyline is going based on the trailer?  sylar kissing claire while she is restrained with his telekenisis power.

Gauley :I really agree with the idea of having some shorter story arcs with some payoff for each. Would make the fact that the overall story takes the whole season easier to swallow.
