LOST 2009 Ep 4

No way this ep is as good as last one, but let's hope it comes close!

1:00 - i bet that it was penny's boat that rescued the oceanic 6 otw off the island as soon as we saw a boat.
RK Note: This is NOT a nut. We were all meant to know that was penny's boat and that was the night they were rescued! I don't think anyone thought, "oh, what is that mysterious shot of the boat on the water at night that we've seen 567890345678 times before?"

2:00 - nice line about the normal bed kate. nut 1 for me!
RK Note: What about Kate's line was nice? That is NOT A NUT!!!!

2:30 - hey, speaking of claire going to LA to give the baby up, remember like in season 1 some people told her she had to be on that plane? cb mentions that claire was told that claire had to raise it. i really cant remember.
CB Note: Claire went to the psychic. He freaked out and initially refused to do a reading for her. She went back to him after her boyfriend left her to get him to do her reading. During the reading he told her that Claire had to raise her child herself and that "her goodness must be an influence on the child's development." Claire said that she wanted to give the baby up for adoption rather than raise it alone. She tried to give the baby up to a couple in Australia, but when she was signing the documents 2 pens given to her didn't work and she took it as an omen. She then went back to the psychic one more time, who told her that her baby would be safe if she gave it to a couple in LA and gave her the 815 plane ticket and insisted she had to take that flight.

3:00 - just writing the name "claire" makes me think of kim bauer and peter "batman" petrelli.
CB Note: This claire is so much better!
RK Note: This claire is WAY better. Do we have any good working theories on what happened to Claire when she disappeared? Is she dead? If she is alive, where the heck has she been all this time, and why was she so weird that time she was in Jacob's cabin? Slash, she may have been dead when we saw her in the cabin.

4:00 - fyi, the first 3 minutes of the show were pointless.
RK Note: Stop insulting Lost, give it a chance!

5:00 - cb thinks future kate looks hot. i prefer season 1 kate. but lets be honest, id still... ya know.
CB Note: It's amazing what a little makeup and hair product can do!!
RK Note: Future Kate looked GREAT! Evangeline Lilly is so pretty in person, too!!

6:00 - cb thinks that sun looks exactly the same. i agree.
RK Note: Where is Sun's baby?

7:00 - also, if it appears the blogging is mostly pointless thus far, thats bc nothing has happened yet, still.
RK Note: Really, you just don't have enough to make fun of, because Lost is so good!

8:00 - but ooh, sun has surveillance photos of ben and jack. and a box of chocolates. what's that Forrest, your favorite kind is Caramel Colt 45?
CB Note: Life is like a box of guns....

9:00 - commercial break one, and i am just really skeptical of this Sun is bad and working with caleb plot. is she really dumb enough to think that its all ben's fault, and not caleb's too? would she really not discuss things with the rest of them off the island and figure out that they cant really trust anyone? feh.

10:00 - juliet is totes muh fav. im rooting for her.

11:00 - why is only charlotte sick?

12:00 - great minds think alike, juliet, great minds think alike.

13:00 - shouldn't this lawyer guy be on the CW? one of his daughters ended up dead on lost 2 years ago (i'm lookin at YOU nikki, of nikki and paulo), another one is sleeping with D on GG, the other is a floozy costarring with xstina macintoshfence on samantha when, and the last, well she was lindsey's best friend in Mean Girls!
CB Note: Just, wow. I'm going to have to explain ALL of that to everyone else cause no one watched Related, no one. And he will always be Angela's dad on My So-Called Life, before anything. I'm so glad he has a more substantial part...I was hoping his whole part wasn't those 2 minutes at Kate's door last week.

14:00 - LOL at all this "we'll take a raft around the island" talk and lack of island geography.
RK Note: Where's that big foot statute with four toes? That's my favorite piece of island geography! Also where's the black smoke monster lately?

15:00 - wtf are you kidding me? this is why locke has to bring them back? "this is all happening bc they left, i have to bring them back..." yea, sure, bc it had NOTHING to do with you watching ben go down a super secret elevator shaft and turn a giant wheel in some rock. suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure. (cb has her own note ill let her add herself)
CB Note: Richard TOLD Locke that he had to bring them back to fix the island. It's not like he made it up himself. And you know Locke, he'll believe anything with his whole heart and not for a second doubt that it needs to be done. Furthermore, Ben turning the wheel is involved in the "bringing them back" because Ben has to come back too! They have to get everyone who left with the flash back on the island to fix it. Not that I understand why or how that would fix it, but you don't disobey the never-aging man!

16:00 - lol maybe it will kill you johnnyboy!

17:00 - for the record, its 9:14, and i still don't think anything has really happened yet.
RK Note: I resent your negativity

18:00 - charlotte pretended to have amnesia for a second it seemed there. shame, something almost happened!

19:00 - did anyone else find the sawyer says "we're goin' to the orchid" music pretty funny?

20:00 - lol, at jack taking that call while that woman was yelling at him. it was all, "talk to the hand bitch"

21:00 - a) its unclear who was first to nut the "ohnoes this guy is coming to kill sayeed" amazingly obvious plot twist of the year so far. i mean seriously, could there have been less tension? cb commented "how do they know where sayeed is always?" and my response for now is "Sun is surveilling him!"
CB Note: First of all, as I said to J last night, not EVERYTHING has to be a huge plot twist or something nutworthy. Why is the nurse being a bad guy trying to get Sayid bad TV just cause we realized (as Sayid did) what was happening immediately? It doesn't make it any less enjoyable to watch! What makes it unenjoyable is you needing to NUT everything!!!!!!!!!! Secondly, the tension comes from trying to figure out who is sending all these guys after Sayid. Thirdly, Sun is receiving surveillance reports, but we don't know if she's doing them or widmore is doing them and sending them to her. Also, I don't know if Sun has a reason to try to capture Sayid. But, also let's note that these people aren't trying to kill Sayid, just tranquilize him, so whatever their plans are, they need Sayid alive for it!

22:00 - also, why did dumbass not just shoot sayeed right away, why the awful elaborate ruse?
CB Note: True that. Also, who turns their back on a known assassin?

23:00 - cb notes the significance of them wanting to just tranquilize him. although we dunno what it is yet. ohno they are going for kate!

24:00 - oooooh yea. Becky Bloomwood Confessions of a Shopaholic commercial, featuring Disturbiaaaaaaaaaaaaa. sing it Rihanna!!! (cb is not pleased, becky blooms is british in the book, but she's american in the movie. the book takes place in britain and they are both british. here's the thing though, they made the movie in america, made isla fisher american, BUT, left the male lead as british. just... lol.)

25:00 - why not just tell her assassins are after her, jack?

26:00 - why are ben and sayeed in a fight now? i dun really remember.

27:00 - cb throws up an awesome nut! theres that shining light up to the sky, they dunno what it is, and cb is all over its the hatch! john knows, and wants to not go near it, and avoid the beach. cb and locke - 2 peas in a pod.

28:00 - nut disclaimer, did they show them seeing their old selves in last week's previews?

29:00 - ohnoes, miles is bleedering.

30:00 - so, sawyer walked in on kate helping claire give birth. a) cb actually nutted this was what happening when she heard the girls muffled yelling. b) remember how we watched a rerun of Lost on channel 55 and then ended up watching our first episode of House after? well, THIS was the episode of Lost we watched - this exact one! it must mean something...
CB Note: I still cannot that we randomly came upon the same ep that was then featured in the new lost, SO RANDOM!

31:00 - oh, and sawyer is sad, bc he saw kate. touching. cb's mushy over it.

32:00 - kate should commit arson and burn the lawyer's office down... hey, for 2 bonus points, who knows the elements of arson in NY?

33:00 - i vaguely recall locke pounding on the hatch and the light coming on.

34:00 - so, now i was wondering why miles and charlotte got the bleed, but the others didn't. my basic guess is it was just they didn't come with our Losties, so our Losties are special. then faraday is all "maybe its duration" and im thinking "oh, they've been on the island less long". after all, we know faraday was also on the island in the past from last week. but THEN he goes and says "have you been on the island before?!". and miles is all "wtf huh?" so charlotte and miles could have been on it before? and longer than faraday? and, not to be a debbie downer, so were those 2 guys from the freighter who died.... pft. i hope they explain it good!
CB Note: We already had a hint that Charlotte had been on the island before in her first ep! In fact, according to Lostpedia, it's even implied that she may have been BORN on the island!! ALSO - I cannot take credit for this cause I just read it as a guess on eonline but I'm super pissed that I didn't think of it.....Miles could be Marvin Candle's (the Dharma guy from the videos) son! Who we see in the premiere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RK Note: So when Faraday said "duration" I thought OH, maybe BEING on the island longer builds UP duration that would lead to less likeliness of bleeding, and the Oceanic survivors and Juliet have clearly been on the island for awhile, and Dan Faraday may have been on the island back in the past like when we saw him in the cave posing as a member of the Dharma Experiment, and so I thought "well that makes sense, those people have been on the Island before and have built up endurance and Miles and Charlotte have not." But THEN like a second later it was all FLIP FLOPPING the OTHER way, where the LONGER you have been on the island apparently the more likely you are to bleed? And Miles and Charlotte would have been on the island longer, and CHARLOTTE on the island the LONGEST OF ALL? Apparently this is so-- but when was Charlotte on the Island? Maybe she was born and/or grew up there? Does she KNOW she grew up there? What was the hint from Charlotte's first ep that hinted she's been on the Island before, and does she REMEMBER and KNOW it? Also I ABSOLUTELY 100% agree Miles must be the Dharma Guy's son, that makes perfect sense-- but the bigger question is, why doesn't Miles KNOW it and why doesn't Miles KNOW he lived on the island as a child? Because Miles did not appear to know it at all!

35:00 - cb asks a critical question: how'd that other boat catch up with them so fast?
CB Note: They did seem to come out of nowhere to be right behind them.
RK Note: And WHO are those boat people?!?!! I think they were in the FUTURE in that scene where they were being chased in the canoes! But how far in the future?

36:00 - i enjoyed sawyer's one liner conversation with god. i thought the first one was dumb, but it set up the humorous second well.

37:00 - caryn claims she nutted the client was claire's mom. she did indeed say it right before the door opened, so she does get that credit. she also says she had it way long ago, but you now how it is, CBNote or it didnt happen!!!

38:00 - this aaron/claire/claire's mom/jack/kate thing better go somewhere. as in, somewhere more than "oh hi claire's mom heres kinda what happened i hope its ok, thanks for understanding."

39:00 - mid Jack speech im thinking "hmm, i wonder if claire's mom doesn't actually know whats going on, she doesn't seem to be reacting at all to jack being there, and she'd totally partly blame him b/c he'd know it wasn't kate's baby either" and then she's all "what're you talking about?" and im like "AAAAARRRRRRRRGGGHHHH I SHOULDA WROTE IT DOWN!!!!" and then cb's like "i knew it too, it was obvi. blog it or it didnt happen" and i gonna propose that we pretend we both nutted it but i didn't get a chance b/c she started complaining about how i pause the show to blog, and spend all show talking about nuts or non-nuts or attacking her nuts and yada yada yada then i hit play again.

40:00 - super sketchy explanation for how she just happened to be in town too. i hope its really cooler than that, i was getting intrigued!

41:00 - also, on a separate and different note, i kind of think its apparent now that ben is a good guy, since we know widmore was a former other who got kicked off the island for being a dbag.

42:00 - GREAT twist with the lawyer going to see ben, re hurley's murder charge. it was BEN who put the lawyer on to kate, so kate would want to run, and be persuadable to go with jack and back to the island. brilliant!!!
RK Note: But even weirder, why did Ben admit it? The more Kate thinks someone really DOES want to take Aaron, the more likely she'll be to want to go back to the island!! Maybe Ben will threaten to tell Claire's mom the truth?

43:00 - i wonder if they'll ever go back and explain the pregnancy problem on the island. is it related to time travel?
RK Note: They better explain EVERYTHING eventually

44:00 - ohnoes a juliet nosebleed!!!
RK Note: This fits into the duration thing discussed above, since Juliet has been on the island longer than the Oceanic people by awhile... BUT Miles and Charlotte therefore were on even LONGER than Juliet. So also, is it just a matter of time before Faraday and the Oceanic survivors ALSO start nose bleeding? The Oceanic Six sure better get to the Island soon and save them all from hemorrhaging!!

45:00 - Reenactment:

Locke: anyone speak french?
Scene: people talking french on a liferaft
Me: omg i wonder if its Rousseau?!?! (insert huge nut-grin)
Cb: oooooh
Scene: unroll Jin in lifeboat
Cb: Jiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin!!!!
Me: F.

ok, so a few points - first, how did those french people on the boat get there? cb makes a great point that maybe they are Rousseau's people, bc they could still be in the past. now, part of me wants my nut. the other part of me is hoping they don't expect me to believe that Jin has been floating unconscious in the water and spasming through time while our Losties have been having adventures for the last FOUR episodes...
RK Note: And yet, apparently they DO want us to believe that. Oy. So happy Jin is alive though!!!

46:00 - oh, kudos to Kate for figuring out the aaron plot that i nutted earlier.

(fast forward to) 59:00 Think sun will decide to be a total moron?
RK Note: I think once Ben proves someone to Sun that Jin is alive, she'll go back to the island with them. BUT, major problem, WHERE IS SUN'S BABY? No way Sun is going to go back to the island without the baby, right?!?!?!! The baby was in her tummy on the island so it should be allowed to come back with them/ not sure if it "must" return like the other 6?

60:00 - nut nut nut, nut nut nut, nut nut nut nut nut nut nuttttttttttttttttttttttttttttterooooo. young rousseau sure is a hottie! cant wait til jin hears her name... here it is..... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

61:00 - cb was thrilled that i mistakenly threw my AWESOME nut away, and she scooped it up and said it could still be true. :)
CB Note: So, as soon as we see Jin, J's all like oh, well it's not Rousseau then, I wonder how these random French people got there. And I'm like, have you not been watching the last 3 episodes?? They're going back and forth through time and they interact with people at different times. It IS Rousseau back when they crashed and landed on the island! And he's all like huh? And I'm all like NUT for ME Biatch!
RK Note: I LOVE that it's Rousseau!!!! So cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also what happened to Rousseau in the present? I can't remember if she is alive or dead? if she is alive, where is she?

on the whole, this ep was kind of average, not that great really. however, i very much like that we are seeing young rousseau, thats brilliant. also, even avg LOST is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Loseroes.

Heroes Volume 4 Premiere

So, since i agreed to start blogging Lost, a good show, i thought i could weasel out of heroes, but cb is making me do it. le sigh.
RK Note: Please blog ANTM when it returns, it makes it worth watching

i put the odds of this show being better than the 2 heroes commercials last nite (the singing commercial and the football commercial) at 0.

1:00 - yea, so, let me just say that junior senators who have been senators for 3 months are NOT chairmen of the homeland security commission. this show is so dumb.

2:00 - how did last season end? i have no recollection.

3:00 - ali's in trouble! and they are immune to ice!! maybe they are equipped with Ice Shields or Ice Armor?
RK Note: How WERE they immune to her ice? Sylar was no match for their armor though!

4:00 - great insight from cb - how did those 5 people get in through that window?
RK Note: Excellent point. That window being ajar foreshadowed nothing, as there is no evidence whatsoever the men in masks entered through it-- they didn't even come from that direction!

5:00 - its that guy from damages! and he set ali up.

6:00 - save the taxpayers... save the world.

7:00 - am i watching heroes, reading a tom clancy novel, or perhaps a holmes opinion?

8:00 - so... can hiro really never time travel again?
CB Note: Well, if he came back from the future in season 1 to tell Peter what to do, doesn't that mean that he has to at some point regain his power, a la all of that time travel logic we've discussed???

9:00 - the andocycle is so lame. so is basecamp. i wanted to watch himym.
LB Note: But it was presumably Japanese made and therefore much more fuel efficient than its American equivalent...

10:00 - i bet the password is significant at some point. caryn throws a nice charlie guess from s1.
CB Note: My second guess was Ando, they are BFF afterall
LB Note: I thought it was gonna be that chick he fell in love with at the diner in S1. Is that Charlie? I forget. What about creepy dude who they buried alive? Think he'll come back this season? Oh Papa Petrelli killed him.

11:00 - this peter scene was so bad. his acting is terrible. he sounds like batman...
CB Note: You sure he wasn't just singing a Kanye song? Work it harder make it better, Do it faster makes us stronger
LB Note: I just snorted when reading this CB Note. Fortunately I am alone in my office with the door closed.

12:00 - sylars dead? i didn't know that. apparently they found his teeth after primatech asploded.
CB Note: You really don't pay attention to this show do you...

13:00 - oh look claire wants to be an agent. haven't i seen this plot 4 times.
CB Note: This time with awful lipstick!
LB Note: Clare should apply to Tufts!
RK Note: Why were they all "Hamilton," "Smith," is this some sort of promotional placement for Hamilton and Smith? And Claire was all "Hamilton, Smith, Georgetown, they're all great." Really, should Hamilton be used in the same sentence with Georgetown? Apparently Claire with her GED, even with her superpowers, is not equipped to apply to elite institutions like Tufts, Cornell, and Penn...

14:00 - "primatech, the company, pinehurst - 3 names for the exact same plot device used in 3 seasons?

15:00 - sylar lives! i thought he was with Captain Picard?
RK Note: who?

16:00 - aww, its sylars real dad. and hes a watchmaker! lol.
LB Note: We knew his real dad was a watchmaker and his creepy mom collected snow globes. Remember when he went loco and killed his mom...?

17:00 - im complaining incessssantly about having to watch this. i must be awufl to be around. i feel so bad for cb. im pretty sure if we didnt invest 3 seasons in this show together, i definitely would have quit and not come back.
CB Note: You sure didn't act like you felt bad for me! Stop whining!

18:00 - at least i like daphers. wtf why is dead african guy there? i wonder if parkman has a brain tumor like izzy stevens?
LB Note: The plot with Izzy Stevens is far FAR worse than this. Izzy HAD SEX with the ghost. At least this is a show about super powers and Parkman has brain/mind reading stuff so it makes more sense in the context.
RK Note: I knew there were reasons I stopped watching Grey's Anatomy after the second episode. SEX WITH GHOSTS? Seriously? Awful, it sounds just awful.

19:00 - i just showed that 18:00 entry to cb, and she totes laughed out loud. gjme.
CB Note: I believe it was more like a polite giggle.

20:00 - hey it just got cool, after taking down ali, he's going for peter and parkman! and claire heard, bc they had this top secret convo on the landline and claire just picked up the phone! i suppose that makes angie and nathan 2 dumb teenagers and claire the smart parent?

21:00 - who is sylar's father! who was this guys brother! im at the edge of my seat!!!
RK Note: I still am not sure who set Sylar up. Was the father in on the set-up? Was the brother? Where IS the brother? WHO is the brother? Could the brother who gave Sylar to the father as a baby be someone WE KNOW? Who that we know would live in a weird house full of taxidermied animals? Bet the Brother has powers too, right? But then why didn't the baddies round him up, too?

22:00 - not.

23:00 - ooh, peter's iranian emt partner throws in a great political diatribe that is supposed to make us think "hmm, the middle easterners who are different but not evil are just like our friendly heroes!". slick, writers, slick.
LB Note: I thought the EMT Partner was hispanic...I was confused.
RK Note: Just laughed out loud at LB Note.

24:00 - claire just called peter. caryn said "peter dont be stupid". safe to say thats not gonna happen.

25:00 - well, i thought this mohinder/peter cab s1 reminiscence was a bit ridiculous, but i did get a laugh when peter made the extraordinary comment.
LB Note: I'm just happy Mohinder no longer has scales.
RK Note: I'm sad they didn't kill him off back when he was putting people in cocoons. Speaking of, where's MAYJA this season? Did they kill her, or is that too much to hope for? Why can't I remember the last chapter?

26:00 - so... how did hrg know to be there? to save mohinder who i forgot still has his power.

27:00 - caryn asks a good question: how'd they get down there so fast?

28:00 - oh you tricky hrg!

29:00 - when did nathan get this plan? was it arthur's too? i cant remember.
CB Note: Nathan has always wanted to segregate the heroes, from the very beginning. He wanted to blow up NY and blame it on people with powers, then he wanted to announce it at the press conference when future peter shot him, now he's back at it.

30:00 - seriously, the season finale was so awesome i don't remember any of it.

31:00 - that turtle is so cute. i want one!
RK Note: How could it be as cute as Little T?! I think you should start a blog of pictures of Little T being adorable.

32:00 - oh noes parkman is talking to this guy now. i hope they don't start kissing and having sex, a la denny...
CB Note: This joke is growing old, especially since Mike and Rachel don't even watch Grey's Anatomy!
LB Note: Agreed!

33:00 - i showed that one to caryn too. she said "how many times are you gonna make that joke?" my answer: as long as parkman still keeps having chit chats with this dead guy.

34:00 - wtf, how did izzy learn to draw all of a sudden? what bs.
LB Note: This made a little sense since a number of the characters in the past have developed the ability to draw the future and then their eyes go all white and stuff and they become a profit. Plus Parkman has all these mind reading powers. Future drawing doesn't seem all that far out there for him.

35:00 - ando cycle as a chick magnet i lolled for reals! and then hiro got mucked lol. but he has no powers anymore anyway.

36:00 - nice, nutted that ff.
CB Note: ?
RK Note: ???

37:00 - nice job claire, way to save the day you newberry.

40:00 - nathan's character is so ridic. he just vacillates from good to bad. s1 a pawn, then saving peter when he asplodes, then back to being a douche, then not a bad guy, then douche lalala.
CB Note: He pretty much has always been a bad guy who will make exceptions and do good things, usually to protect his family. The guilt got to him in s1 about killing so many people, so that's why he saved peter from exploding, but then he went right back to being a bad guy.
LB Note: Nate was always the jackass brother who couldn't stand up for what he thought and did what his parents wanted (became a lawyer--what a jackass--politician, went along with his mom's plan to blow up the world etc.) Peter is the one who acted independently (Became a nurse, questioned the mom's plot, etc.) This is just par for the course.
RK Note: While I heard the CB and LB comments, I do agree with Justin's allegations of ridiculousness-- Nathan has seemed, to me at least, to vacillate back and forth between good and evil this entire show-- sometimes he's really evil, and sometimes he seems all good! For awhile it was like Peter was bad and Nathan was good, and then they were on the same side, then it flip-flopped... Remember when Peter was all "I have the hunger"?


41:00 - so, plot prediction: sylar is gonna end up helping all the good heroes escape and fight back against nathan and his stooged - nut city baby.
CB Note: I thought this before you wrote it =p
RK Note: Bring back good Sylar who weirdly lived in the Bennets' old house in Texas in the alternate future and had a cute little boy!

42:00 - caryn: "i thought that too!". screenshot or it didn't happen, babe.
CB Note: You suck.
LB Note: To be fair, wasn't there some sort of trailer for the season saying "they are all hunted and will have to be on the same side" or something...
RK Note: Excellent observation LB. Excellent banter J and CB.

43:00 - so, ill be honest, my first thought was "F, there goes my nut! i guess cb wont be complaining about my attempts to not give her credit for that busted nut now..."

44:00 - fortunately for me, sylar pulled a spock and decided to smack those guys around, and in the process, seal the deal for my first Heroes nut of the season. BOOYAH!

45:00 - oh, look, as predicted, this password would matter. i didn't think it would be so soon, but, count it! cb threw out an "ando" nut just in time. gj babe!
LB Note: I don't get why they took Hiro in the first place. He has no powers. Do they not know this? How did they find him anyway? Do they have that Molly girl?
RK Note: Luckily, smart Hiro put that GPS device on himself! Ando should be able to hop right onto the Andocycle and go rescue him! But seriously, those ppl should get the memo Hiro doesn't even HAVE powers anymore! But as Caryn discussed above, I hope and bet he gets them back at some point!

46:00 - way to hammer home the guantanamo analogy with the orange suits, the masks, and the headphones...
RK Note: Ooh is that really what they do to prisoners at Guantanamo? I was thinking it looked so terrifyingly scary.

49:00 - hey, i would swear that claire borrowed B's writers for that "what are you gonna do? threaten my family..?"
CB Note: Once again referencing a show no one else watches (Gossip Girl)

51:00 - also, what a terrible idea to let her go. i mean, he's mucked peter, and is a total heartless sob. does he really care about claire that much that hes gonna f up his entire grand plan. pathetic.
RK Note: YET another example of what Justin and I were saying at 40:00. Nathan is all super evil but then randomly good! Which as Caryn pointed out, his good moments are usually about his family. But also, I can't even remember how it is that Nathan is Claire's father. Nathan slept with Gina from Nip/Tuck who's now dead? And then didn't want Claire after they thought that Jessalyn Gilsig died in that fire, and so then Hiro's dad gave baby Claire to HRG on that balcony? And now he's all "oh its my daughter, she knows our grand evil plan, and she's stubborn and fearless and can't die, but let's just send her off in this limo and send her off to Hamilton/Smith and she won't do anyone any harm..."

52:00 - lol at having claire with just one dumb dude?

53:00 - cb is all "what is claire's plan? whats she gonna do on the plane?" i think its obvi, shes gonna free them, duh!

54:00 - cb makes a terrific observation - claire has always been kim bauer v2.0
RK Note: Yes, they are both SO ANNOYING. I think I prefer Claire to Kim Bauer, marginally.

55:00 - what are there, like 2 guards on this plane with all these superdangerous heroes? sigh.
LB Note: Yeah but they are drugged up, tied up superheroes. Also there are more people in other parts fo the plane. Duh!

56:00 - oh well, at least peter grabbin suresh's strength was cool. he should have everyone's powers on the plane based on proximity tho.
CB Note: Yea, all of a sudden they're making it like he needs to touch the person in order to get it. When before he didn't (even in the finale, he was able to fly just by being near Nathan)
LB Note: I think Peter just wanted to touch Mohinder...
RK Note: It drives me INSANE that they are rewriting the rules and making it so he has to touch ppl to get powers!! He so does not!!

57:00 - loved that claire terrible oneliner, then look at hrg.
RK Note: My favorite part of the entire episode. "Dad?!"

58:00 - when did they change peters power to needing to touch people?
RK Note: WHY? WHY? WHY? And now when he touches people he winds up accidentally using powers he doesn't know he has? Doesn't he have to THINK about which power he wants to use to use it? I guess its like when he couldn't control his powers in the beginning and he iced the wall of the plane, but seriously, that was a total newbie move.

59:00 - also, speaking of terrible ideas?

60:00 - lol at random masked hero out the plane and dead.
RK Note: SO funny. When Claire unmasked the random I was all "who's that?" Then she was dead 5 seconds later. Hilarious.

61:00 - cb hopes they don't crash on any creepy time traveling islands with others...

62:00 - so, we are watching this "will peter fall out?!" montage for about a minute and then i finally go "i hope he decides to fly!" and cb responds "oh yea, wtf"
LB Note: He could have flown and used his super-Suresh strength to carry the plane and coast it to safety. I very much enjoyed the slo-mo screaming shots though...
RK Note: I cannot believe they want us to forget Peter can fly. DUH PETER CAN FLY!!

Verdict: Guilty as Charged. send this show to the hangman!

Heroes Fall Finale!!!

while we're nearly liveblogging Heroes, please note that we need 2 pts from the Eagles Defense tonite. Fly Eagles Fly!!!

1:00 - wait, i have to get some more Dr L. this figures to be unbearable otherwise.

2:00 - CB Note: J made me pause right after the "previously ons" to talk football on the phone. Let's gooooooooooo!

3:00 - it was totes awesome when sylar offed Arthur P, i will admit that. loved seeing that again.

4:00 - cb notes that sylar is narrating. does this mean mohinder will die?!

5:00 - why is nathan so dumb to keep following this plan? like seriously, did he miss season 1? he was manipulated all season, and did the right thing at the end, barely.

6:00 - still unexplained is how peter will get his powers back. also, it would be awesome if peter busted a cap in nathan's ass. nice trick punch petey!

7:00 - overheard on the couch at 46 and 1, "peter, you used to be my favorite!"
CB Note: After the ep, when they did the preview for the next chapter, they showed Peter from season 1...he was so emotive! he was so genuine! he didn't talk in a batman-like snarl! Oh season 1 Peter, how I miss you...

8:00 - how is sylar at primatech? he was just at pinehearst.
RK Note: This is an excellent question, he doesn't have Hiro's, Daphne's or Nathan's abilities, or anything like them, does he?

9:00 - what is this "i'm gonna prove you're all monsters like me" talk? we dont understand.
RK Note: Has anyone else seen Saw? Did anyone else think that Sylar's scheme was a LOT like Jigsaw's schemes in the Saw movies?
CB Note: Saw is NOT my kind of movie...

10:00 - thanks claire for that get you in the back of the head reminder from season 1. i had forgotten that, since it'd been 6 minutes since i saw arthur get killed like that.
LB Note: Arthur was killed because the Haitian was holding off his powers, not because he was shot in the back of the head...
RK Note: Then why didn't he heal once the Haitian left?
CB Note: Arthur was killed because the Haitian was holding off his powers so that he could be shot in the head. We've learned that people who can heal, (Peter, Claire, Sylar...) can only die if shot/stabbed in the head - if whatever it was was removed from their head, they could then heal, a la Claire in season one when she had that branch in her head and woke up after it was removed during her autopsy.

11:00 - also... who are sylar's real parents? or was he all genetically hatched like ali larter?

12:00 - cb thinks hiro woulda fallen by now.
RK Note: I agree. He also righted himself on top of that flagpole WAY too effortlessly. Very unrealistic. Not that any of the show is at all realistic, or supposed to be at all realistic...
LB Note: Hiro looks like the bastion of upper body strength...


13:00 - how did arthur know to go back and get the formula from hiro? did he paint it isaac style?

14:00 - what are these 2 bad guys doing? who are they with?

15:00 - L.O.L. at fear guy instakilling that marine.
LB Note: This scene was absolutely hilarious. Though I kinda feel bad for the marine who like watched his friends die and is now having his neck snapped by creepy fear dude.
CB Note: The only thing I didn't like about this was that I totally wanted their plans with the super strong soldiers to go awry and blow up in their faces by the strong men turning on them.

16:00 - was it really that easy to get rid of all the formula?

17:00 - cb asks, and i agree, how ridiculous is it that ando thinks he's gonna get to time travel? do you just get to pick your power? i mean, seriously, what ridiculousness.

18:00 - good point parkman, we agree! lol.

19:00 - daphne actually just tried to argue that you get the power you want (cripple to being fast bc she wanted to run). are we really supposed to take that brief explanation to parkman's question (asked for the audiences sake) as the answer? - did peter really wanted to absorb other peoples power? nathan really wanted to fly? parkman really wanted to read his cheating wife's thoughts? fear guy really wanted to be powerful from other peoples fears? and micah really wanted most of all to be able to withdraw all the money he wanted from ATMs????

20:00 - also, cb keeps unpausing and not giving me a chance to type, and then complaining bc i'm blogging. She's the one who wanted me to blog to begin with!!!
CB Note: You have to give the people what they want! Think of all the joy you spread with your blog! I think you should blog more often!
RK Note: Please, please, PLEASE blog Y&R. And every ANTM.
LB Note: Umm, learn how to type faster...

21:00 - also, so, now ando has powers? there goes the kind of cool thing of having some people without powers.
LB Note: I'm fine with Ando having powers now that Hiro has no powers...

22:00 - lol that sure was easy for hiro to climb up... didn't look it from the other views.

23:00 - cb thinks hiro will have to get help from his dad.

24:00 - wise words from little hiro. i wonder if hiro is gonna get rid of the formula now, and then instachange the future. i hate how you cant blog during hiro scenes, bc you're not reading the screen. cb used to be better at reading it out loud to me.

25:00 - btw, if its so easy for hiro like this, why didn't he just teleport back to cheaply save the world in seasons 1 and 2? (ie, by killing exploding guy so he could never give sylar his power, or by [we tried to figure out what the plot of season 2 was to give an example, but neither of us remembered. something about a little indian girl virus? and some plot with mohinder seeing images of her in dreams or india that was just spontaneously dropped???)

26:00 - witty repartee between claire and angie there (temper tantrums and spankings)

27:00 - with sylar so dangerous, why did angela want to play games with him being a company agent? why not just kill him? wouldn't that have been smarter? he better have like some super important role to explain such silliness. cb asks what the end game was for the whole "family" plan that both her and arthur tried to use.
CB Note: She was just trying to use him as a weapon - get the scary killer on your side so he's with you, not against you. But how'd Arthur know she was lying to Sylar about it when they first saw each other and said he also told Sylar he was his dad. Damn that Arthur.
LB Note: Angela is a manipulator. That's what she does. She's also eerily calm during this entire scene while everyone else is running around freaking out!
CB Note: Angela IS always calm!!! No matter what the situation. How odd.


28:00 - those are some loud ticking clocks!!!! is this how claire becomes a villain (peters original future that really doesn't matter anymore)?! omg no she shot the phone instead, and then delivered a brilliant "you are". i was on the edge of my seat.... really... . ok, i was just reaching for the wineglass, but still.
CB Note: I believe I mentioned at this point that it seemed like a waste of a bullet, since she only had 6

29:00 - a) i cant believe the plan was to let all (3) villains out? also, why didn't he just puppet them both?
RK Note: I was SO AFRAID he was going to just puppet them all!!!! Why didn't he just immediately puppet everyone?!?! I hate him and he terrifies me. He also sort of reminds me of my 1L Legal Writing professor.
LB Note: I figured he'd die pretty quickly like fear dude "instakilled" the marine...


30:00 - cb hates puppetmaster. i say, at least he doesn't shoot fire.
CB Note: He's SO creepy
LB Note: Puppetmaster could use some of the sexual harrassment training I had in my office. We watched some very informative vignettes.

31:00 - caryn wonders if mohinder is dead. i say it doesnt matter, bc hiro is gonna change the past and render this entire season moot.
CB Note: I think the correct word is "hoped" ...caryn hoped mohinder might finally be offed.
RK Note: Rachel hoped, too.

32:00 - i will say, this daphne-parkman-ando scene with the scrunching was comedy gold.

34:00 - cb thinks that glowing red ando hand is the ability he had when he killed hiro. now.... THAT... would be awesome, and maybe even reinstore a little faith in the plotting ability of the writers. ok, so i was looking to see where above i wrote that it would be kinda awesome if they at least went back to the ando v hiro fight, but i couldn't find it. i swear, i thought it. while i was looking, cb mentioned how Heroes is sloppy with its past-present-future effects, unlike B2F 1 and 2. i pointed her towards the entry at 31:00. totes agree!
LB Note: The problem with the theory that this is the power that he kills Hiro with is that the power supposedly magnifies other people's powers. I think that scene was a false future bc it appeared that Hiro had powers in it and now he doesn't. Plus, wouldn't using his powers on Hiro just amplify Hiro's powers, not kill him...
RK Note: He wasn't REALLY killing him, see Caryn's note how it just looked like it at 56:00-- in the future he was supercharging Hiro, but when Hiro saw the future vision before knowing of the existence of Ando's future-acquired ability, he thought it was killing and didn't realize it was supercharging. This is all theory since I didn't rewatch the scene to confirm it was the same zapping thing going on, but I like Caryn's theory on it at 56:00! Also it could be a future that still happens if Hiro gets his powers back, which he may be able to somehow still... He could always go back in time and grab some of the formula to inject himself with (or roll around in like Mohinder).

34:00 - for rachel, B2F = back to the future.
RK Note: Thanks for the shoutout

35:00 - every great B level horror flick needs a still moving decapitated arm.
RK Note: Yet another similarity between this episode and the Saw movies.

36:00 - a) i cant believe sylar could lose to the puppetmaster. b) how could the puppetmaster be so dumb not to insta kill sylar, why talk like a dummy?

37:00 - bye claire's mom. its ok though, you were mostly useless.
RK Note: I hope getting rid of Jessalyn Gilsig was only to free up her schedule to go back to Nip/Tuck as Gina
LB: I still think Claire could have absorbed all fo the fire and healed from the burns...
RK Note: GREAT point, if she could somehow have absorbed it all without the company blowing up... Also in this scene I was irrationally worried about Claire getting out before the building exploded, when clearly it doesnt matter since she could have healed anyway!!!
CB Note: I still think that the Fire is not the same as the Electricity that Claire absorbed from Elle. Elle was electrocuting the plane and held Claire's hand too electrocute Claire. It wasn't Claire "absorbing" it exactly, it was just that she could be electrocuted and survive. Claire's mom was going to explode, there's no way to "absorb" fire in the same way, because even if she burned Claire, she was still going to explode.
LB Note Rejoinder: While I understand what you are saying, if I remember correctly, Elle's problem was that she could no longer control her powers. It's the same problem as biomom. Elle was sparking when she got angry; biomom was shooting flames bc of the adrenaline. If she had just shot fire into Clare until the effects of the adrenaline wore off...
CB Note Rejoinder: I agree that both were a result of the person not being able to control the power, but I believe that is the difference in the 2 powers that is the reason it can't be done! Fire and electricity are different in how they work, fire doesn't have the same ability to transfer to a different object like electricity can.

38:00 - ohnoes, she cant control her fire, she's gonna asplode!! recycle season 1 more pls.

39:00 - sylar is devious. at least they've explained his earlier line. he is trying to force them all into bad situations and make them do terrible things, like hrg and elle did to him.

40:00 - i know that was obvi, but rachel was probably texting and emailing, so i wanted to make sure she got it. Also, titus pollo is in the legion with lucius vorenus.
RK Note: I don't text and e-mail during HEROES, just terrible boring confusing HBO shows. I couldn't pick Titus Pollo out of a lineup if my life depended on it. I didn't even like Rome the city that much when I visited it. Also I got a B in Jeremy McInierny's Introduction to Ancient Rome class, and perhaps my bitterness over that is what led to my aversion to all things Rome-related in my future. OR, perhaps that class was more boring than the HBO show Rome. Actually, not possible.

41:00 - note though, that lucius is now making out with Arliss' former assistant on thursday nites on abc.
RK Note: Luckily that wouldn't confuse me because I'd never recognize Lucius. At least not Lucius from Rome. I'd know Lucius Malfoy anywhere.

42:00 - Assante Samuel Pick 6! 3 Superbowls next week! Blondies West at 1pm, make sure to rsvp!

43:00 - terrible nathan/fear dialogue.

44;00 - well, rough end for fear guy. he was mostly a pointless character. just some random 'muscle' ali larter is backkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.

45:00 - ooooooh, at least ando's new power is kinda funky! well, actually, apparently he sends OTHER PEOPLE back in time. nifty i guess. does make the time traveler total 2 though. closing in on fire throwers!

46:00 - i love how ticking clocks are season 3's way overused sound effect in the vein of micah's ATM theme music.
RK Note: What HAPPENED to Micah??? And to that little girl who could find anyone?

47:00 - you are KIDDING me lol. the gun didn't do it, so we got claire running throught the glass? what silliness. i feel like every scene centered on trying to make claire a hero is TERRIBLE. so are her terrible one liners. she'd be better off saving dolphins in japan.

48:00 - right ali, all you need is the document with the formula. who needs the catalyst? the last 3 episodes were so bad, lets just pretend they never happened. good plan ali.
LB Note: Shouldn't they just make a pdf version of the formula and e-mail it to themselves...
RK Note: Seriously, or even a low tech Xerox? Make just a few copies? Even handwritten copies? Someone with the power of photographic memory could just memorize it, its only a sheet of paper long! SOMETHING, people!

48:00 - rachel, skip the entries at 49:00 and 52:00.

49:00 - ok, so now they are going with the supercharger theory for ando's power. now, this was my first guess, though i didnt write it [CB Note: As J likes to say, Screenshot or it didn't happen!], when parkman could hear everything in nyc, and daphne moved realllllllllllly fast. but then, to explain, daphne's time travel, back they go all "you were moving so fast you went back in time, its einstein's theory of relativity!!!!" Well, listen up you pathetic lamers, im not a physicist, but i did read some physics books for popular consumption [CB Note: Nerd!], and the only time travel happening when you move at speeds approaching the speed of light is that time moves slower for you (bc your energy is spent so much moving through space, that less is moving through time, conceptually), so that if you go traveling at the speed of light for a few years, then come back to earth, you will yourself not actually have aged even though years have gone by, and everyone else will have aged, so it will feel like time travel, but you never actually literally go backwards. thats just pathetic hocus pocus. in other words, par for the Heroes course.
CB Note: Mumbo Jumbo. I'm fine with thinking that Daph/Ando can move fast enough to go through time. It's Heroes after all, not exactly the source of realistic plots.

50:00 - all that said, supercharging is a cool ability. but this whole supercharging daphne back thing is ridiculous. and, as caryn notes, what will she do for 16years once shes back there? it will be cool if she meets her "nemesis" in the past though, bc hiro daph scenes are usually actually good.
CB Note: Well, I had just wondered if it worked both ways, she could travel back and forth through time, which obviously, she did. Cause it would have been funny if it worked backwards and then they were stuck :)

51:00 - why not just tell him you are hiro?
CB Note: I agree! It's not like his dad doesn't know about powers. His mom believed him when he told him. If he had told him what happened in the future, maybe he would have agreed to destroy it, rather than just hide the two halves.



52:00 - ok, so, my first thought was, daphne mucked it up and now its not destroyed. then cb noted that it was ripped in half in the future, the 2 halves. so.... kudos to the writers for not taking the easy "hiro just goes back and fixes it path." On the other hand, if it was already ripped in 2 halves in the episode we first saw, that seems to suggest the kind of timetravel universe where the timetraveling is already taken into account. this, of course, was decidedly NOT the case with arthur, who obviously was NOT the catalyst originally. So... well done writers, way to use two theories of how to reconcile time travel paradoxes, and sub them in and out as you need.
CB Note: As I explained to J after seeing him type the above...it was PRESENT arthur who went back in time, became the catalyst, and then returned to the present to activate the formula. As opposed to PAST arthur taking the catalyst and having had it all the time, the past 16 years. So throughout this season, arthur never had the catalyst, until the point he went back in time, got it, and returned. Really no one was the catalyst for those 16 years in between.

RK Note: YES, YES, YES. Caryn explains this brilliantly.

53:00 - rachel, you should skip the entries at 52:00 and 49:00. actually, this wont do you any good now. let me go add it in at 48:00.

54:00 - cb has a nuanced take on the issue in 52:00, which i think is s pretty persuasive response. im impressed. kudos to her. ill let her add it in a cb note.

55:00 - so now, they are going to get the formula again at pinehearst? tbh... i would just dash back in time to the moment before hiro got caught and destroy the formula.

56:00 - awesome note by cb, although we cant remember the dialogue, its likely that ando was never killing hiro, but just supercharging him in the future. well done babe! cb just suggested going online to watch it after. mayhaps we will.
RK Note: Such a good nut!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

57:00 - cb wants to note that i am 10 minutes ahead on my minutes numbers, and have been all ep.

58:00 - ohnoes! they spilled a vat of formula all over the floor and mohinder drank some and woke up.

59:00 - nathan is such a patsy. btw, is peter gonna inject himself? lol good thing there was one syringe left. cb and i wonder if peter will get his absorption power back, or all the old ones he collected too. well, he can fly!
RK Note: Such a good point, if it just gives back his power to absorb abilities, how can he fly? Maybe because Nathan was there? Or does he still have all past absorbed abilities?
CB Note: We think Peter regained his ability to absorb other powers, but not the powers he had previously. So, he got Nathan's power cause he was in the same room as Nathan. But he still needs to be near other people to get their powers again.

60:00 - mohinder is trapped in the lab fire. cb cheers his imminent death. i preemptively cry at his unlikely escape.

61:00 - two thumbs up for animated john hodgman!
CB Note: For those who don't know...that was a reference to the Animated "I'm a Mac" commercial that we stopped to watch because who doesn't love claymation?!

62:00 - she gave him love and guidance like a mother? for what, 2 episodes?
CB Note: Perhaps we will learn that when Sylar was a baby the Petrelli's took care of him before giving him to his adoptive family? Would be more satisfying than her pretending to be his mom for a few eps.

63:00 - angela is sylar's mother... true or false? survey sayyyyyyyyyyyys..... shes not!

64:00 - ooh.. perhaps an explanation to our earlier question... what skill of sylar's did angela need? uh oh... who are sylar's real parents.............. sounds like a plot for next season tbh...

65:00 - unless... of course... claire offs sylar this episode....

66:00 - whoa... is that really the end of sylar???
CB Note: I would hope not! Maybe after the fire, someone finds Sylar, takes the glass out of his brain, then he will heal a la claire on the autopsy table in season 1.
RK Note: I love Sylar, he can't be gone!!!

67:00 - just let her die claire. nobody cares about her. seriously.

68:00 - so... im supposed to feel all emotional at claires bio mom dying.. i know thats what they are going for... and... i just think its funny and im glad shes dead. seriously... terribly written, not emotional investment. just a sign of bad writing and terrible plotting.
CB Note: I am happy that they're killing a bunch of non-essential characters this ep, so they can start next season off with fewer people, which has been a complaint of Heroes - too many people, too many storylines. They really just need the few ones that we like and one central storyline (that makes more sense).

69:00 - and even cb criticized the needless exploding special effects.

70:00 - cb notes that peters scar isnt healed in this scene with nathan. that would indicate he just can fly and do blue fire now...

71:00 - cb laughed at my 71:00.

72:00 - oh no, mohinder is narrating again. how did he live?!?!?! this isnt gonna be surprising, but id really have preferred if sylar lived and mohinder died...

73:00 - whats mohinder doing with ali.

74:00 - this mohinder narration is just so lame. these things used to be kinda cool in season 1.
CB Note: That's cause we liked Mohinder in season 1. Imagine that!

75:00 - thats it, really? pathetic.

76:00 - cb makes an amazing note! sylar was alive in the future. only now, as i try to explain how great a nut it was, she fights with me about time travel theories and doesn't let me write it bc she wont pause

77:00 - the thing from fugitives was cool. cb nutted the plot of Fugitives.

78:00 - to continue 76:00, sylar cant be dead. bc, as per the first part of 52:00 (cb's cb note to come will explain away the contradictory theories), the future takes into account the past, and sylar was VERY MUCH alive in the future, earlier this season, and as good sylar (did he turn good after finally meeting his parents?). i was going to debate this point with cb, but she shushed me and wouldn't keep it paused.
CB Note: My issue with this was that I think there might be a difference between the PRESENT reflecting things that have happened in the past and when they travel/see visions of the FUTURE, because it is a possible future and once they see what happens, they can change it (because it has not yet happened). Just like in season one, where they went into the future and saw Manhattan all blown up. They saw what COULD happen, went back to the present, and averted it. Then, the future changed. This season, FUTURE peter went back in time because he saw what happened after injecting others with powers. So now, that is averted and that future will no longer happen. So what I'm saying is, while I would love for Sylar to be alive and hopefully be a good guy in the future, it's not necessarily going to happen anymore, since he could very well be dead permanently. Also, as a side note, I'm pretty sure that in that future, Sylar still thought Peter was his brother, meaning in the timeline that lead to that future, he hadn't attacked HRG/found out he wasn't their child/gotten the Lie Detector ability.

79:00 - also i forgot to write about my complaint that daphne and hiro just dashed back to the future. also impossible by their supercharged relativity theory. in actualty, to dash forward like that, they'd have to run at the speed of light for 16 years measured by our lives (ie 16 lightyears), which would allow them to not have aged at all for 16 years when they do go back to moving normally through space.
CB Note: Blah blah blah dork.

80:00 - also, in season one sylar was alive in the future and masquerading as president petrelli, remember that awesome episode then when he fought peter. obviously, we are to assume that this future was averted, but its not under the "thats why the formula was in 2 halves already theory" of time travel.
CB Note: See 78:00 CB Note pls!

Heroes Dec 8

C asked if i wanted to watch ugly betty or heroes first tonite. ofc i picked ugly betty. Heroes, how far thy hath fallen...
CB Note: Not really true. I didn't even ask which he wanted to watch first, cause we watched Ugly Betty while eating dinner, so of course he couldn't blog and eat at the same time!

1:00 - im watching last times now. seth green was the highlight of the season. and as i was watching elle getting mucked i thought to myself, how is it possible that VM has more screentime as the voiceover narrator in GG than in heroes?
CB Note: XOXO

2:00 - why did hrg say "we think she died in the fire"? was that referring to claire or her momzor?

3:00 - omg, was hiro playing... a Gameboy?!?!?!

4:00 - the catalyst must have been in hiro's mom!!! and now the arrangements... to Claire!!! just like my super awesome nut 2 or 3 eps ago that you all criticized like jealous momos.

5:00 - and takei just said that they were giving the catalyst to claire, but mom wanted to keep it in family!!

6:00 - hmm, is there any chance that mom will trix takei and give it to hiro or ando instead.

7:00 - hiro's mom's a healer! like linderman. watch out flame throwing heroes, thats 2 for healers (3 if you count claire!)

8:00 - hilarious talkover scene. we had to rewind to listen to claire.
CB Note: In case you can't tell, he's referring to the scene where both Hiro and Claire say "I know what to do!" and talk over each other. Pretty cute. I *heart* hiro

9:00 - claire is gonna stop the catalyst form getting put in her, omg good idea! what if it mucks up Claire's power too?
CB Note: But she already had her power from birth, if she survived that fire, right? Which actually makes no sense cause I thought everyone got their powers after the eclipse.

10:00 - i totally thought that takei knew future hiro would be there checking in. c nutted that takei thought he was the hired help. well done babe!

11:00 - c complains about pausing so i can blog and not miss anything. tough nuggies!

12:00 - so... omfg, elle is really dead. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?!?!?! why did they take one of the awesomest young actresses in hollywood, and give her this craptacular role, with barely any screen time, and then totally waste her character in a stupid plot. i am SO MAD. i have half a mind to just stop watching, given that this show sucks anyway. if c wasnt making me do this, i would totally stop watching. im dead serious.

13:00 - i didnt even remember that nathan changed his allegiance in haiti. im so confuzzled. sigh.

14:00 - insert more sylar-elle rant here.

15:00 - and wtf where did he get that list of ppl with powers from?
CB Note: He worked at the Company for awhile plus for Arthur for a bit, so he had access to people's files. He obviously saved the info for a rainy day when he'd want to feed the hunger again.

16:00 - this pinehearst plot is dumb. its all dumb.
CB Note: Somebody call the whaaaaaambulance!

17:00 - i mean, at least when they trap ali larter's character in 3 seasons of dumb plots, i don't care bc its ali larter. but with vm, i take it personally.

18:00 - really, thats some kind of big reveal? they are gonna pick superpowers to give us soldiers?
CB Note: They want a super-army to take over the world, duh!

19:00 - what happens if future claire touches old claire? can the same matter occupy the same space, or will they implode in a violation of the space time continuum (like Timecop)
CB Note: I totally made that space-time continuum joke (only more referenced to back to the future.)
Doc: I foresee two possibilities. One: coming face-to-face with herself 30 years older would put her into shock, and she'd simply pass out. Or, two: the encounter could create a time paradox, the result of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space-time continuum and destroy the entire universe! Granted that's a worst case scenario. The destruction might in fact be very localized, limited to merely our own galaxy.

20:00 - c questions claires moms parenting skills, giving the baby to strangers to hold and all.

21:00 - this scene is SO BAD. not only is it unbelievable, the dialogue also sucks as usual.

22:00 - omg a cool new power! The HLD!
CB Note: I don't know what this is referring to.

23:00 - c doesn't like bad sylar. she liked nice sylar. i think that while nice sylar was fun and different, there is something to be said for villain sylar who is in it for his own greed and lust for power.

24:00 - well nathan sure told the sergeant what he was in for. he told him all about what this drug would do...

25:00 - every war movie they've made about iraq has bombed. how did this scene make it into Heroes of all things?

26:00 - convenient that now Daph can side-along-Dash in addition to Hiro's side-along-Timetravel. (+2 for whoever knows the reference....)

27:00 - line of the nite by c (as guy is trying to get away on bike): "Go after him Speedracer!"

28:00 - why's she dying? and why'd she call it "the light"

29:00 - omg takei is criticizing hiro for his obsessions with video games and comicbooks. this is BULLSHIT!!!

30:00 - lol young hiro is so cute. and they pushed up their glasses the same way.

31:00 - lol at claire and the boy in 5th grade.

32:00 - so... now that claires changed the past by talking to hrg and her mom, why don't they eventually remember this when claire grows up and looks like claire?

33:00 - ok, so hrg knows she's lying... cool. now, what would be totes awesome is if she told him the truth and they plotted something together to avoid getting her to be the catalyst (and perhaps saving her if thats why hiro's mom is dying)

34:00 - lol company man. season 1 ep shoutout?

35:00 - well, at least hiro told his mom what was going on. now, i assume, they will plot to keep the catalyst in the family...

36:00 - hmmmm.... so she gave hiro the light, then died. so... claire never had it? or now takei is gonna think theres no more catalyst so the entire future is totally mucked up bc the formulas useless? frankly, you know they wont make much effort to explain all the resulting time travel paradoxes.

37:00 - c also wants credit for some kind of nut. i wasnt really paying attention.
CB Note: I nutted that Hiro's mom was going to heal his head when they started talking!!! I said it out loud!

38:00 - this peter-arthur-haitian scene BETTER be awesome...

39:00 - do you think they're gonna remember to make that noise and visual effect every time somebody lies to sylar?

40:00 - HOW DID ARTHER GET THERE!!!!! oh.em.gee. he took the catalyst! and he took hiro's powers! and he kinda killed hiro! phew he caught that lightpost! but now he's lost in time! how will he get back?!

41:00 - also, how the eff did arthur know to go back and get them? was it future arthur or past arthur? it had to be future arthur right? c notes that it had to be future arthur bc he knew about catalyst, and also referenced his feud with mama p. now, the 50million question, HOW THE EFF did he know to find them there?

42:00 - tbh, if he knew how to do this, why didn't he just go back and take it from hiros mom as soon as he found out about it...? huh... huh...?

43:00 - i paused it on mohinder's face to write the previous entry. c was all "omg now i have to look at mohinder for an extra minute. whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
CB Note: Well he's gross looking!!!

54:00 - GO TIME baby, the haitian's here! these last 5 minutes better be pure distilled awesomeness...

55:00 - omg peter do it you giant wuss! btw, im going on record for peter wuss's out.

56:00 - uh oh, looks like hes gonna go all INCREDIBLE HULK and then kill everyone!!!!

57:00 - peter you giant newb. how could you not shoot faster. i totes thought arthur paused time, but it looks like sylar did it, with the haitian down for the count, and now hes gonna LIE DETECTOR HIM!!!! i bet sylar totes kills him for lying.

58:00 - BILL IT!!!!!!

59:00 - btw, it appears the catalyst is gone.

60:00 - yup... there went the light...

61:00 - poor peter will never get his abilities back...

62:00 - so do they not need the catalyst bc they have the formula and all already?

63:00 - its a little odd how often the future and final event has been changing this season. i cant even remember the beginning (ando killing hiro?) then peter was in the future when everyone was fighting amongst each other and claire was bad.. then the catalyst plot, and now hulk boy with arthur dead and sylar as a bad guy again.
CB Note: I can't wait til Nathan realizes that making a bunch of ridiculously strong people is so stupid cause he has no real way of controlling them.

Dec 1 Heroes

back 2 back heroes blogging!!!

also, tonight's HIMYM was last season's March Madness Episode, which featured a terrific plot and theme, and quite probably, the BEST last 30seconds of any episode ever. i highly suggest you watch!

1:00 - so, did hrg do sylar and elle? any bets? im guessing.... no.

2:00 - c chuckled at that "either she hasn't been sick ever"
CB Notes: Well....she hasn't!!

3:00 - i cant believe vm is busy nutting sylar. a little frontal nudity could have saved this scene.

4:00 - simply unbelievable. how could he have missed. he had a frigging sight on a high powered rifle. pathetic.

5:00 - also, how could vm and sylar have been so dumb to stay in that house?

6:00 - id like to hit vm in the butt with my gun... get it?

7:00 - also, going back to something from 2 eps ago, howd nobody know there was gonna be an eclipse? usually its posted in all the newspapers days in advance so you can go watch.
CB Note: And have we seen any of these people look at a newspaper ever?!

8:00 - yay more french!

9:00 - omg was majah's name on that postit. ohgawd... majah is coming back!!! MAJAH!!!

10:00 - what terrible and pointless dialogue: "you keep talking but all i hear is blah blah blah". that guy is so useless. he likes fire... get it?

11:00 - c wonders if this is the longest eclipse ever.
CB Note: Well, eclipses generally last 7 minutes tops...so you tell me...did all that happen in 7 minutes?? I don't think so! (Especially considering Sylar and Elle had sex, I'd hope for her sake...)

12:00 - what the hell lie is she gonna come up with?

13:00 - im wishing it would get light out, so i could see whats happening on the tv. its way too dark.

14:00 - c is looking at daphne going from cerebral palsy to running really fast, and she's singing alanis morisette songs.
CB Note: Isn't it ironic? Dontcha think?

15:00 - know whats funny? i totally dont remember an eclipse a year ago. daph referred to one. was it part of seas 1?
CB Note: Know what's funny? You are extremely inattentive.

16:00 - mohinders pathetic. he gets one shot, and he mucks up. how unbelievable. frankly, mohinder couldnt even defeat majah. c echoes my thoughts simultaneously.

17:00 - ando, you dont need him to help you understand. just l2read.

18:00 - flipped over to vh1 for a sec, and just found out that.... Hiro Makamura.... YOU ARE HAVING THE BEST DAY EVER!!!!

19:00 - this is gonna be the most pathetic trap ever. also, c noticed vm wasnt bleeding anymore.
CB Note: Well, HRG was following a trail of blood to the store they were at. But then Sylar wrapped up her wound, so she wouldn't be leaving a trail any longer. So all they had to do was run away! But instead....

20:00 - great job breckin. there was an eclipse in Hiro's origins story!!! i believe i mentioned that last blog. you can check!

21:00 - did ando refer to the roof in nyc from seas 1 and an eclipse? i dun even remember that. wasn't hiro always muckin with the clock before he left japan in like ep 1?

22:00 - less nathan. less nathan. less nathan.

23:00 - my new line, to be used indiscriminately: "I'm Matt Parkman!" im definitely gonna bust this out next time r says something silly.
CB Note: I don't get it.

24:00 - why doesnt peter just go too? silllllllyyyyyyyyyy.

25:00 - claires mouth is dry. why were they feeding her that mm Shiraz?

26:00 - it looks like claires hair is gonna fall out.

27:00 - H.R.G. shazzowww!!!!!

28:00 - thats what you get for shootin clairebear!!!!

29:00 - and claire is going septic schock. everyone who waches medical shows know that when youre going septic, you are toast!

30:00 - eww at claires insides btw.

32:00 - so, in the interests of honesty, i was going to throw in a nut right here about hiro getting his powers back, and changing the past to sylar and claire dont die.

33:00 - as i began writing, c promptly pointed to that the eclipse would end soon, and claire and sylar would revive.

34:00 - and nut for cb.

35:00 - soooo...... why do some eclipses take powers away? and other eclipses give them?

36:00 - i guess ray is kind of like bumpkin the plumpkin...

37:00 - scene cut to haiti. cb: "uh oh". i was gonna say that peter is gonna pwn face now. but cb reminded me he got his stolen by arthur. will he have gotten them back?!?!?!

38:00 - he got.... Hatian Hurricaned!!!

39:00 - cb thinks the haitian should be on more. i totes agree, he rocks.

40:00 - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. mohinder is screwed again. love it. if there was justice in the world, he'd have died right then, and we wouldnt have had to see majah on screen,

41:00 - you tell hiro Chris Griffin! you dont have to be batman or superman, but hiro gives us hope!!

42:00 - ok, so a) the 9th wonder comic book usage is great. im glad its back. b) great one liner by seth green to close the scene. not only appropriate, but a reprise of Hiro's line earlier (cue vh1). and c) sadly, HOW COULD THERE BE A NEW ISSUE OF NINTH WONDERS!!! ISAAC WROTE IT. HE DIED TWO SEASONS AGO!!! OMGEEEEE.

43:00 - ooooh. interesting twist. claire died was a problem.... think claire dying could have messed up the catalyst?

44:00 - quick.. make some nuts.... are angela and arthur his parents or not? will hrg die?

45:00 - HIRRRRROOOOOOOO. great scene. BAD MAN!!! save the cheerleader!!!!! well, it disappoints pretty often, but, on occasion, they can throw together some great ones.

53:00 - ok.... it's as if Seth Green was reading my mind... FINALLY throwing out the ridiculousness of isaac mendes being dead.... only, he calls this the last posthumous issue. i DISTINCTLY remember isaac like drawing and sending an issue out to save the world back in that season.
CB Note: I don't know if we actually know what that last issue was when he sent it though!

54:00 - great seth green story about dudes and guys at a convention. nice stunt casting with him and breckin.

55:00 - i keep asking c to pause so i can type, but she doesnt. pfffft.

56:00 - nice speech nathan. i used that time to check the stats in the hou-jax game.

57:00 - yes, lets look at you mohinder. and remember, a) what an idiot you are, and b) how unbelievable your plotline was.

58:00 - why did hiro leave them on a beach? still a chance to nut: was hrg lying or not? what does elle know about sylars parents? i have no good guesses....

59:00 - i preferred vm with logan tbh...
CB Note: Piz!

60:00 - really? sylar kills elle now? after all of that? first of all, if elle is really dead, shes had like nothing useful to do. i am so disappointed. second, can she get her own show again? third, wtf is with that story line, it just lurches back and forth with no rhyme nor reason. its like the writers arent even trying. and this show is on the air, but Pushing Daises gets canceled. im gonna quit watching tv soon, i mean it!!!

61:00 - hey thats terrific. we are stopped bc it ran over again. and its not gonna be online i bet. so.... this blog willl end with hiro showing claire something in the 9th wonders book. totally sigh.

Heroes Nov 24 Episode

so, id rather cuddle c and give her big hugs while we watch this. instead, i am being forced to blog this awful show.
CB Notes: You're welcome all!

1:00 - oy, watching these previously's, just angers me more about everyones criticism about my awesome catalyst nut.

2:00 - so at dinner with c's family last nite, we were talking about how heroes has gotten worse. and her dad was like "well thats bc c's mom never watches it and cant follow it" and i was like "also... it stinks"
CB Note: What are you talking about? I don't even understand what you're trying to say my dad said. He did joke that my mom can't follow it, but how could she "never watch it" when she does?

3:00 - were any of those pictures important? i as too busy typing, bc c makes me.
CB Note: Yes they were pictures of things that would happen this episode!

4:00 - i kind of wish that vm was on lost...

5:00 - oh puppetman.

6:00 - hrg! wheres he been? srsly i have no idea. i cant remember.

7:00 -where are peter and nathan going. sigh im lost.

8:00 - whens gossipgirl on?

9:00 - do we need these gratuitous dead person body parts scenes?

10:00 - wuts the catalyst do?

11:00 - wait, it wasn't obvious to you guys that that pencil drawing was claire?
CB Note: Was she wearing a cheerleader outfit?

12:00 - oh noes lots of bad things today! i like how claire can die during the eclipse thats smart. and if we remember season 2, hiro actually appeared during the ecilipse of that battle. is that when all abilities started?
CB Note: Ooooh, yea he appeared in the past and there was an eclipse so his powers didn't work! I guess that's why he couldn't get home? But then the eclipse was over and he still thought his powers didn't work...so I dunno...

13:00 - whose side is daphne on again? and parkman's plan to find him is find his phone number? really? nobody else had it?

14:00 - c reminds me that daphne saved parkman in that dream last time. that was cool!

15:00 - c sometimes has to go potty like that. why are they at parkman's, wut happened to my seth green and breckin meyer cameo?
CB Note: I have no idea what that is a reference to...

16:00 - oh btw, i guessed that was claire dead in hrg's arms at the start.
CB Note: But then you made fun of the guy who said that was claire in the drawing? Also...not a nut.

17:00 - know what'd be cool? if there was really a chance for claire gettin WHACKED.

18:00 - lol ando called daphne Nemesis.

19:00 - why is hiro having a staring contest with little t?

20:00 - yay, sassy vm returns!

21:00 - what exactly is vm doing? i dont understand at all.

22:00 - hey, i hear ticktocking. sylars hungry.

23:00 - c doesn't get wtf vm is doing also. sigh at this show, and it was actually shaping up as a good ep.

24:00 - who else is tired of mohinders random science mumbo jumbo? omg the moon controls the waves! mohinders changing! that's bc you're a frigging moron. just dai. k thx bai.

25:00 - so... ali larter's character is totally pointless again right? 3 seasons in a row? sigh.

26:00 - i love daphne, but this parkman plot is pretty bad. and its esp sad bc i was excited for the daphne backstory. also, if this was in the comic book, why didn't they just read it? for that matter, why don't they just skip ahead a page and find out what happens at the end?

27:00 - ecliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiipse.

28:00 - caryn ewwwed at mohinder. i laughed.

29:00 - sure was lucky they were flying over a lake!

30:00 - really? naked mohinder. come on. srsly. why.

31:00 - how do they know how to find the haitian?

32:00 - where are they? haiti? why as the eclipse in both haiti and lawrence kansas. is that possible?

33:00 - his village is on a map? how convenient.

34:00 - lol at parkmans attempt to read his mind and control him. parkmans face is hilarious.

35:00 -daphne says its happening. wuts happening? what is he going to get?

36:00 - "if we double back we'll make it in an hour". that means like it was 15minutes away, they went 15min in the wrong direction? big whoop. just turn around and stop fighting like a bunch of teeenage girls.
CB Note: Wouldn't 15 minutes and 15 minutes be a half hour, not an hour babe?

37:00 - peter is opening up a can of emotional whoopass on nathan. huh? how did nathan choose dad in the future.

38:00 - hi haitian. tsup?

39:00 - lol vm. and double lol sylar and his fingerpoint.
CB Note: I have no clue what this means. Could you try to like...blog what's happening on the show so we can read the blog and understand your thoughts?

40:00 - "claire noooooooooooooo" simultaneous from me and c. also, hrg busted elles face gud.

41:00 - also, hiro will go back in time and fix all this when he gets his powers back. this will be a nut.

42:00 - how does sylar be all calm in the future when hes still totes bad apparently?

43:00 - well, at least claire can feel pain again.

44:00 - hey, i thought claire and elle were becoming friends on that plane flight like 2 eps ago?

45:00 - claire mentions that she can feel pain again. a nut for 43:00.

46:00 - this is a loooooooooooooooooooooong eclipse.

47:00 - listen you 3 morons. open the farking comic book already.

48:00 - too bad the eclipse saved mohinder.... also, wheres majah?

49:00 - Sam's Comics. of course!!!!

50:00 - terrible dialogue with peter haitian and nathan.

51:00 - je m'appelle j. je parle francais.

52:00 - claire's mom, please shush and can we get on with this episode.

53:00 - nice speech parkman. is this a romcom?

54:00 - these Heroes romances that progress from like total strangers to madly in love in 2 episodes are just ridiculous (park daph, elle sylar, majah mohinder, nathan ali. they are all soooooo bad. i guess park daph is my fave anyway)
CB Note: For the record, Elle and Sylar have a history, they liked each other when she was working for the company, trying to get him to kill. So at least there's that. Daph/Parkman is a bit ridiculous. He's in love with her simply because he saw in the future they were married. And then she loves him because he's a good guy and wants to protect her. Can't we at least show them having a cute moment where they talk like normal people and bond?

55:00 - caryn and i have no daph nuts. no clue whats going on. omgeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, she cant walk! nice twist.

56:00 - out of curiosity, what does one's mind feel like when its full of cotton and ice?

57:00 - aww, we cut out as elle and sylar yakkity yak yak yak.

58:00 - caryns got us fired up online.

59:00 - ruh roh, looks like a peeping tom!!!!

soso ep. could been better, coudla been worse. blergh.

Nov 17 HEROES!!! (including the... NUT OF THE YEAR!)

0:00 - mm, this apple salad is delicious. whats an apple salad you ask? well, its apples, caryns vinaigrette, craisins, and nuts. why are we having an apple salad you ask? well thats bc we were going to have a regular salad, but it turns out our bag of spinach was expired, and all we had left were the apples!

1:00 - ouch, i bit my cheek ><

2:00 - i just find the whole "pinehearst" thing hilarious. i mean, season 1 was about hte malevolent "company" only it was called primatech. now its pinehearst. SERIOUSLY come up with something new.

3:00 - omg its an eclipse!

4:00 - did we know arthur had sylar's moving stuff power? where he get that one? im so lost.
CB Note: First of all, Arthur took all of Peter's powers, of which that was one. Secondly, Arthur has the same ability to get other people's powers (like Peter and now Sylar), as we discussed last week.

5:00 - it looks like he took hiro's memory!! and also, wtf was with ando going all Matrix on that jump attack? seriously, he never woulda looked that cool trying to go karate style.

6:00 - those american style waffles looked awful. speaking of, i cant wait to go to Maureens when we visit my fam this weekend. best diner breakfast food ever. epic. you guys gotta come visit sometime and go with us.

7:00 - oh 10year old hiro. also, arthur shoudla kinda know hiro bc takei was in the group.

8:00 - the hunger is about power, not killing. duh. oh arthur sure can teach him! that devious one. it looked like he used Daph's power to speed back.

9:00 empathy, really? what is this, 11th grade english class?

10;00 - i want more apple salad, fyi.

11:00 - omg elle vaporized sylar!!!! umm, wtf no. so silly.

12:00 - hayden has a plan. lol. some awful acting and dialogue in that scene.

13:00 - caryn was less than impressed with her plan... which, to summarize, was "say a bad one liner then jump out a window"
CB Note: Yea, I don't really get what sort of "plan" that was considering all it did was show them which direction to run after her and Peter...and didn't even stall them.

14:00 - i hate to be the bearer of bad news, but we are approaching Prison Break levels of awfulness.

15:00 - "probably just a coincidence" huh Mohinder? do you not know the logo to this show?
CB Note: Mohinder needs to go away. He's as useless and unentertaining and Majah was. And at least she wore low cut tops (yea, I said it.)

16:00 - huh? a person is the catalyst? i don't get it.

17:00 - that person in the bed sure ended up worse off than mohinder.... i mean... umm. pretend you didnt know that plot inconsistency.

18:00 - i thought sylar got vaporized... wtf, theyre not even gonna try to explain that scene?
CB Note: Apparently, you've forgotten when Sylar took Claire's head off and got her power. Reading this blog would be more useful and entertaining if the blogger actually remembered big plot points!

19:00 - all ghost towns have ghosts.... perceptive, daphers.

20:00 - yes daph, get a nurse in the weird abandoned building.

21:00 - uh oh, claire and peter are in the sewers. i hope they dun meet no Mutant Ninja Turtles...

22:00 - peter, you numbnuts, you got yelled at like 5 episodes ago for mucking up the future and getting rid of that one already i think.

23:00 - BETTER DIALOGUE PLEASE!!! omg, this show seriously need's B's writers.
CB Note: That's a reference to Gossip Girl, since none of you watch that show :)

24:00 - i cant believe claire's plan didn't save her.

25:00 - on second thought, those waffes look pretty good right now...

26:00 - why did arthur take hiro's memory and leave him as a 10 year old? fyi, significant?

27:00 - well done for "i did it" part 2. and 10 year old hiro was kinda funny i thought. caryn says it was stupid. the thing is, it kinda was, but still was the highlight of this ep... kind of like the nikki/paulo episode of season 3 lost...
CB Note: I really don't get how you're comparing anything in this episode with that Lost ep...

28:00 - im watching elle fry sylar. is this Heroes? or a low budget horror movie starring paris hilton and freddie prinze jr?

29:00 - i bet sylar doesn't kill her. you can bill that nut fyi.
CB Note: You can bill it under the code: obvious.

30:00 - nathan scene with arthur. i had to rewind. i kind of slept through it. seriously, this show needs to get it together, bc pretty soon im gonna consider Mariokart a better option.

31:00 - who is born with the talent to lead a nation? is that like a super secret power?

32:00 - arthur is asking nathan to save the world together. i asked caryn "what is it they are saving the world from?" tbh, i dont know.

33:00 - i love vm, but im totally not feeling this emotional sylar and elle scene. frankly, these writers should have stayed on strike.

34:00 - so sylar a) empathy healed her? and b) took her powers without killing her? at least that was cool. caryn, officially, is pro elle and sylar relationship.

35:00 - that peter trick was pathetic. it was so obvi.

41:00 - caryn is chanting "makeout makeout makeout" for elle and sylar. and this whole "elle teaching him to shoot his electricity scene" is RIDICULOUS. what is he, 10, and learning to throw his first pitch?

42:00 - whats arthurs plan?!

43:00 - nathan, SAVE IT FROM WHAT?!?!

44:00 - ohmigod this nikki and nathan scene is terrible. why is this show so bad, why? at least nathan had a good one liner i guess.

45:00 - id like to do more than scratch ali larter's back. just sayin'...

46:00 - cool parkman-angela scene. finally... and daph. finally. cool one. i think that arthur did that to him in angela's mind. hes totes not gonna trust daphers no more.

53:00 - a) daphne is totally my fav character. b) wtf, how does she "love" matt - shes known him for like 3 episodes. c) when they were hugging, i was worried he was going to eat her...

54:00 - whaaaaaaaaaaaat, are you kidding me? arthur just lets angela go? thats ridiculous. come on. seriously, who could possibly buy that?

55:00 - THIS PLACE IS EMPTY. stop going to get doctors!

56:00 - how did peter and claire get here?

57:00 - caryn notes that peter is totally more believable when he tells parkman hes telling the truth mind to mind rather than speaking...

58:00 - caryn has mohinders new awesome name: WOLFMAN! hey, its hideous guy again. why oh why couldnt that have happened to mohinder?

59:00 - fyi, this show was awesomely cooler then 9th Wonders was part of the plot.

60:00 - caryn points out, and i agree, that isaac is dead, and this was his comic. how does it have hiro getting power mucked? further, didnt like isaac get out the last issue to save the world in season 1 just in time? how was he drawing season 3? PATHETIC.

61:00 - A THIRD PIECE OF THE FORMULA!!!! nice twist Heroes. its the catalyst, in the person from season 1!!! and mama p says its hidden in the blood of a person! i have this totally nutted. i am going ALL IN for Claire. first, the camera cut right to a face shot of her. second, and more importantly, when sylar took her power, he said something to the affect of "oh my claire, you really dont realize how important or special you are..."

remind me to point to this entry during the finale, and shout triumphantly... BILL IT!!!

62:00 - well, its a mighty good thing that i paused to write that previous long entry... bc...

BILL IT!!!!

NUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTNUTTEROO!!!!!
CB Note: I'm still in it with it NOT being Claire, too obvious. Hoping for Ando cause of all the reasons I already mentioned in my email. I predict you will be de-nutted.

also, im gonna throw out another one, and say that sylar is gonna look like hes on the bad team for the rest of the season, but help the good guys in the end.
CB Note: Gee, what gave you that idea, the fact that he turned into a good guy, saved Peter's life, and is learning how to control his hunger?? OBVIOUS

also, everyone's all "omg an eclipse is coming", but ummm, does nobody know any Astronomers?

also, great stuntcasting of seth green an breckin meyer next week.
