vincegamer Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 I just read the TV Guide interview with the Executive Producer/Creator of the show. He said Claire's going to learn who her dad is and it will be a "shocker". He also said she will then have to road-trip to meet him. So, all speculation that HRG is her real dad is refuted. That just leaves Nathan Petreli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrEvilmonki Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 could be sylar? or is he to young? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty1001 Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Did anybody notice the cockroach next to Sylar, with them being the only animal that can survive after a nuclear blast, and the nuclear hands man (and explosion), i thought there might be a little connection.

vincegamer Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Sylar is probably too young, but I don't know. However, we do know he was a totally socially inept dork before meeting the professor, so no way he could have gotten laid - particularly in Texas.

Nathan Caroland Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Finally got around to watching this weeks episode and I rather liked it but it has really left me asking more questions. Like the Invisible Man, he played Dr. Who here up until recently and rather like him. Rather interesting individual, 'oh your one of those types'. Obviously he has seen super powers before, from several different individuals and can classify them so to speak. Claire is interesting with what she's going through living the whole lie bit. Annoying to me in some cases but I think she's actually doing it pretty good justice as she is a teenager and her actions sort of fit with what I think she would do anyhow. I liked the idea that she was able to track down her mother who seems to be a flame caster of some sort though she seems a bit batty - likely from thinking she killed her baby from way back when when she apparently 'blew up'. She probably did, 'cept the baby being Claire probably had her powers already and healed up just fine. Something tells me that this started out like a government experiment of some sort or genetics research, or possibly has been clued in early on it and has seen it messed with genetically. Interesting how all of the sudden 'old time' powers are starting to come out of the woodwork, individuals who have had the power for a long time and have lived, albeit quite possibly screwy in the head over it. Hero and his buddy irritated me this episode and the whole 'father' thing I didn't quite follow. Usually I like him but this time about I was just 'bleah' about it. Am curious as to what is going to go on with that. Walk Through Walls, Split Personality Girl and Electronic Boy got a bit more interesting this time around. Waiting to see when blondie gets out of the ward though and quits whining. Same with Dad. Recording cut off just before the end of the show for some reason, but I expect Sylar did some nasty stuff to the doctor and escaped.

EricJ Posted February 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 no, it pretty much ended when he woke up, but in the previews of next week, we see a beating going down. So I guess Hiro's dad is Lindeman? That's good I think, and I think shows Lindeman has big powers of his own. But also is intent on making the explosion happen for some reason...

vincegamer Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 No, from the website it simply appears Hiro's dad is Hiro's dad. He came over from Japan to get his son to come back and get back to work learning the family business from the ground up. It's in the interview with George Takei.

vincegamer Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Of course, I never said Hiro's dad didn't carry the genetic marker for super powers.... Maybe he's a time traveler and actually IS that ancient samurai.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Heeey .. that's an interesting idea. I figure he has to have something going for him since apparently his henchman said 'he has real power'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincegamer Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Finally watched the latest episode. I couldn't get it to run in the usual place on the NBC website, but there's a "cast commentary" video where you can watch it. Just maximize the show and minimize the commentary and it's fine. So, If you haven't seen it stop reading this and go watch it. Neat stuff. George Takei was taken out of the story too soon. I wanted to see him have power or his daughter have power, but no such luck - for now. Peter still having the powers was awesome. He thought he only had the powers while with someone, but he actually keeps them, kind of like antibodies I guess. Nathan - saw that a mile away. Sylar - nice bit of acting. Good save by HRG. Annoying bit where mom almost gives his name but stops to chastise the dog. Too contrived. What was that stuff on the back of his head? "old friend is not as dead as we thought" - great line. Why does Isaak help HRG? Why does Peter think Simone is cheating? It's pretty clear from the conversation she's just hashing over the past and it's Isaac who has feelings. Well, that's all I can think of for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted February 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 yeah, did you see the licence plate on Takei's car? - NCC 1701 But really I wasn't that interested in that story line, seemed like a random sideplot and nothing to it really other than family squable... I liked the Peter thing, that makes his power a LOT more awesome, A LOT Yeah, Nathan, not a surprise Sylar, good plot with him and HRG this time! Still TOTALLY bored with Nikki and Family story line, no point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hinton Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 The thing with Niki/Jessica I think is being set-up to make her a super-villain. The whole "bomb-man" thing will be resolved this season, but after that the heroes need someone/something to stop and I think it'll be Jessica (or at least involve her somehow). A note about HRG: When the show started, I was pretty sure that the character would turn out be pretty much like Cigarette-Smoking Man from X-Files; very two-dimensional (apologies to all of you CSM fans - just my opinion). I'm glad to see that he's not. Sure, he's got some secret stuff going on and we still don't know what his first name is, but there is a human side to him that really gives the character depth. I had HRG picked, but I figured that was a stretch. Nathan, of course, was the obvious choice. Sylar: great acting by Zachary Quinto. He pulls off the character of Sylar without going overboard, although it could be very easy to do. Peter: yeah, pretty cool that he can keep all of those powers and use them when he needs to. Now, if he can jsut control it. Invisible Man (Claude): Questions abound about this guy. How does he know how to teach Peter to control his power? How many other "empaths", or even heroes, has he come across? How much - and what - does he know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincegamer Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Well, he clearly knows HRG, and has for at least 15 years. I disagree about the Niki/Jessica thing. Remember when she's Niki and she's in prison and wants to touch her son? The guard swings his club at her and she catches it and snaps it in two. She has the superstrength when she's Niki, she just lacks the confidence. I'm still undecided if she's possessed or really has MPD. Anyway, I think a crisis will come and Niki will take over and save things. The creator said someone who has been with us from the beginning will die this season. It could be Jessica, but leaving the kid motherless would be a bit harsh for American TV. I'm guessing it's either Simone or Isaac - Hiro hasn't been able to save anyone he saw die yet, why would Isaac be any different? Anyway, just rambling.

DrEvilmonki Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 So is that a bit more interesting for those bored with Niki/Jessica? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincegamer Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Just watched the latest episode. Peter is getting way cooler. I expected Simone would be the one to die, I just didn't predict how it would happen, or that it would happen so soon. Neat cameo by Stan Lee.

Hinton Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 I honestly didn't predict Simone being the one to die. Should be interesting to see what develops because of her death. Now that Peter has better control over "his" powers, he could be a lot of fun. It's good to see that he's gone from a kind of whiny, wishy-washy character to a more intense one. The show just keeps getting more and more interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincegamer Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 I love the fact that Peter now has every power Sylar had (at the time they met anyway). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queeny Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Yeah, there are powers Peter shoud have now from Sylar he doesn't even know about. That should prove veery interesting, as Peter will continue to absorb Sylar's new powers every time they meet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Also Peter has Claire's healing power that Sylar doesn't! That's been a help to him once already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted February 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 I actually really like the new superhero group forming with the cop, nuke guy and the new girl, that has fun story lines and somehow season 2 badguys written all over it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincegamer Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 agreed. Of course, it's really the first time we've seen any of the heroes "team up" for a common goal. They are all sort of working at the edges for the same thing, but not together. Oh, and next week we should be able to see if HRG Bennet can block Parkman's powers or if that really was the Haitian's power - or something altogether different. I hope they quickly figure out that Clair is just as curious as they are to know what's going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincegamer Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 If you're a fan of this show, you'll enjoy this Heroes parody. If you're not a fan, why are you reading this thread? Zeroes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty1001 Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 lol, like it! Il have to save that for Laura to watch, as shes the Heroes fan, i just download the thing for her to watch! But this has just started airing in the UK so any Brits that havn't been able to watch it, can now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hinton Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 Ok, not going to spoil it if you haven't seen the latest episode, but it kicked ass! Still quite a few questions, but Linderman is finally revealed and it's not one of those deals where it's the last 20 seconds of the show, either. What really cheeses me off is that there won't be any new episodes until April 23rd. That's right; a month and a half. Considering how this episode ended, it's going to be a long wait.
