I just finished watching this one and it was better than last weeks. I'm still not sold on Parkman's new power or the new Nathan (but I feel better about it than I did last week), HRG makes more sense now and I get the feeling he is playing Nathan for something more than Claire's safety.
The Sylar story was kind of interesting. Is he just going to go around the country picking up troubled teens with powers so he can form his evil Sylar squad or something.
I really hope the person texting Claire isn't Mama Petrelli or one of the other fugitives. I guess is that it is the Haitian, but I would really like it to be someone cool we haven't seen before. Of course watch it be Micah, just to prove that he hasn't fallen off the face of the Earth.
I'm looking forward to a cool Hiro story in India.
And the main reason why I think I liked the episode is that it was written by Mark Verhieden from Battlestar.
The show is still hokey as all heck, but I have come to expect that from Heroes now.

I forgot to comment...
Sylar getting a sidekick was the only thing I couldn't see coming.
I hope the person Claire is messaging is the one techno kid from the first two seasons. He had the technology powers like the crazy russian chick that you only see in like 1 episode (but she is in many comics). Oh, yeah, Micah was his name.
Oh, and Daphne getting wasted just officially killed time travel. Kinda sucks... I liked her.

Well according to what Daphne told Ando about Hiro not being dead because Ando kills him in the future, Daphne can't be dead because she is still in the future too right.
sometimes all the alternate timelines can give you a head ache.

Well remember, Hiro and Peter are the only ones who really understood time travel... and we've seen people in the future who have died... in season 1 Nikki/Jessica is a good example. Micah died in the explosion the first time through but lived through after Hiro changed time. Daphne using the future thing as justification is kinda stupid.

Heroes is dumb. Battlestar Rules. They should cancel heroes and uncancel BSG They should cancel YOU and uncancel Undeclared. Undeclared ruled. Ruled. Your. Mom.

Heroes is stating to lose me too.
There is no reason why Matt should have the Future drawing ability. And don't you think that Matt got over Daphene dieing pretty damn quick? Although him making the bad guys shoot each other was bad ass.
Also ... now Peter can only hold on to one power at a time? Doesn't that make Sylar that much more unstoppable?
Eh.
Once again I'm going to keep watching cause I'm invested into these characters. But I'm starting to think that the writer's strike killed the soul of this show.
EDIT: Undeclared was an amazing show.

Heroes is back and better than ever.
If you expect season 1, the u stop reading. The writers were all fired after the pretty bad season 3.0 (using BSG terms now) ... Season 3.5 is shaping up to be awesome, although it is a reboot of the series. you can't take much of what you previously know about the chars into this new version of Heroes .. the characters have much different personas now. They balanced the show and made the charcaters more human again (you cant just resurrect anyone as well as stop time to make things all better). The new Sylar storyline is awesome ... I mean an all-powerfull baddie who can control his powers and not "give in" to the hunger that he had in the previous seasons makes him that much more awesome of a character. Peter lost his old power, and the new one he regained with the formula only gives him one at a time, which throws another plot twist in there ... although I think he'll find a way to "re-learn" on how to keep more than one pwr at a time ... anyone hoping for a Claude return??
All in all, Heroes is back with a vengence and people like Derek are just hating because that is what he does good and he cannot admit he is arong after he has already abandoned the show.
Uncancel Jericho ... I loved that show!!! BGS is freaking awesome too ... just got caught up to where the series is at in real time for the first time in 3 years!

Eric, I have never agreed with you more. Although Chad and I need to help you with spelling and grammar.

Jericho was awesome. I can't believe I forgot about that one.

Um ... has anyone told Eric that BGS stands for "Black Guy Stuff?

Blah blah blah... Derek, you just want to sound important by agreeing with people who are paid to complain all day. Eric is right, and even if that means hell has frozen over, it does mean Heroes isn't as bad as you think it is. Shoo, shoo, leave the Heroes thread, go post about "The Movie Biz"
