pretty interesting but it has spoilers

they let you know when they are coming so you can skip them

i like this quote:

'We tried to learn from the pitfalls that other shows had fallen into,'' says Kring, citing Lost, 24, and Desperate Housewives. ''We sort of made a pact internally that we weren't going to be the show that made you wait for stuff.'' Of course, that does leave Heroes vulnerable to another potential pitfall: running out of story to tell.
along with Sylar's identity. (Hint: The Scrabble value of the actor's name exceeds 10 points.)
Meaning it contains letters like x, z, q?
if you go to imdb they tell you who it is

That guys name doesn't exceed 10 points.So, can we finally stop saying that its him???

Nevermind that he was listed in the episode for last week and wasn't actually in it.

I highly doubt it if he's in the episode this week either.

IMDB is totally unreliable on this, ask anyone who spends time in the Lost thread.

Read that this weekend. Not to spoiler-y, but good read nevertheless.

It also says it here so it's more than just IMDB...but thefutoncritic.com's episode summaries don't list Sylar at all in any of the next three episodes.

I'd love it if it's true, because he is an excellent actor.I just don't buy it right now.

He won't be in tonight's episode at all.

 
Wow, this was a helluva thread to get caught up on. I started watching this last week and am now caught up and sucked into this show. I have nothing to add right now except :blackdot: so I can join in the discussion going forward

 
I think Peter/Hiro meeting will take a while. The show has been relatively slow developing plot, with a lot of character development. There still seems to be a lot they can do without moving the plot too quickly.

Well, they said they were going to resolve the "save the cheerleader" storyline in November. They said that all the heroes won't meet up untill the season finale though.
 
Hm. Wonder what relevance the eclipse has.

The kids a technopath. Interesting.

What else happened besides this?

So Micah's got some cool "Mr. fixit" powers.

There's now a radiation guy - they alluded to him being the big explosion.

Claire's brother knows her secret.

Nikki's let her bad side take over.

What was that two-lined tattoo on both radiation guy and Matt?

 
Another great episode. I wish they could keep the show going for a few seasons and just develop the story more. It has so much potential.

 
I'm making the call now...The Radiation guy is what causes the explosion in NYC...
I'm almost certain that was brought up early in this thread.The painting in the first episode with the hand holding the glass of boiling water is of the guy Parkman caught tonight.
 
So, Micah can fix broken phones, and probably other machines.

Kinda a crummy super power if you ask me.

 
Did you notice how Micah knew the lady on the other end of the phone was not his mom. I think he has seen/met Jessica before.

Nope. I'm betting Sylar gets to him first, which, if the absorbing the power by eating the brains is correct, then he is the one that will go boom.One interesting question with loony theory included: Did Peter come close to someone to allow him to connect in dreams with Simone's Dad? Could that be Simone's power, in going into other people's dreams?

Peter has been the only one with prophetic dreams. Now, that sounds like a power. It might be remnants of Isaac's, or Simone, since it is probably someone we've met, and would have been close to. Simone would fit the bill on both instances(Flying dream as well. Don't remember if there was another). Something to think about, and would be good for a future villain later.

As for the 2 lines on Matt, could that be an indicator of being taken by Horn Rims/worked over by MindWiper?

Or is it some manifestation of whatever is causing the mutations?

Last of all, c'mon guys. I will no longer hit this thread day of because I know spoilers are being posted about day of, but there were quite a few posted about future weeks. If I wanted to know when the Save the Cheerleader would happen, I'd look for the interview. So

POST SPOILERS IN WHITE PLEASE

Sure it's not as cool as stopping time but I'd take it over flying any day. Think of all the technology around us every day. If his abilities work on any kind of mechanism then it's even better. No prison could hold him and he could break into just about any facility around. He could be the ultimate computer hacker. Not to mention he'd be essentially invisible to high tech detection gear. He could make planes, trains, car, or any mechanical transportation stop functioning. He could prevent guns or bombs from working. A lot of useful stuff with that power.

LOL ... He could buy cars from a junkyard for $50 and fix them lickity split for a huge turnaround in profit.
 
So, since once again Sylar didn't show up as that actor spoilers keep saying he is, can we stop assuming its true.

If you ask me, two weeks of this have proven it false.

I guess. $100 says he stays at the hero's command center though. He's a "support hero", not a super hero.BTW, I'd much rather fly.

Yup. He's an astute little boy with a crummy super power.
If he can fix technology, can't he probably also disable technology? Like maybe a nuclear bomb? No need to guess at whether to cut the blue wire or the red wire.

Meaning Mr. Horn-rimmed Glasses and his mutant buddy got a hold of him and memory wiped him after examining him like they did with the telepahtic policeman (Matt?).

When the step dad had Matt all tied down in the room and he told (I forget his name Haitian?) him to erase or clean him out.

I must have missed that. Did they do anything other than wipe the memory? Is it just the memory of being taken by them or what?

I don't think we know that yet. Because he still has his power so I'm not sure what they cleaned.If we do know I missed it :)

It hasn't been really clear so far but as far as "I" can tell. Mr. HRG and his mutant (Hatian?) buddy abduct the mutants, examine them, and then memory wipe them. The memory wipe "appears" to only include the memories of the abduction and examination and no more.
 
Micah's power is called Technopathy (also known as Cyberpathy) which is the super power to control technology, generally electronic (although not limited by this) with one's mind.

sounds like this is NOT truehttp://www.compleatseanbean.com/rumour-heroes.html

 
I'm sure the double lines on the shoulder are number of times they were cleaned. They probably don't want to do it too often to risk permanent damage so this is how they keep track. Or maybe there is more than one cleaner so this prevents over cleaning.

The dream power is an interesting twist, but I don't remember other dreams being of significance yet beyond the first one about flying. And that was a prophetic dream, not one in which there was communication between people. Maybe Simone's dad had the dream power, meaning that Simone herself will also have a power not yet revealed.

 
Did you notice how Micah knew the lady on the other end of the phone was not his mom. I think he has seen/met Jessica before.
Yup. He's an astute little boy with a crummy super power.
I saw him do that and I thought "He's magnito." Not sure what his power is exactly, but he appears to be able to mess with metal. :shrug:
If he's Magneto, his stock is up.If he's a technopath, he'll be a crummy hero always back at base.

Wasn't there a nuclear device that was missing from the trainwreck in the first few episodes? I sort of remember hearing them mention it on the TV at Clair's house.
 
Another thing we haven't mentioned yet - Matt Parkman finds out that his co-worker or ex-partner guy had an affair with his wife. :o I was wondering what Matt's wife was wondering if Matt knew about in their last conversation? Now we know.

 
His brother was talking to Linderman and asked him to have the painting shipped directly to the gallery.

Later Peter asked his brother if he was getting the painting. What did his brother reply? Did he say he couldn't get the painting???

:yes: He lied to his brother.

I couldn't make out exactly what he said [thought].Did people take it that he had done his wife, or that he wanted to, or thought he could?

I wonder if we've seen the painting before and didn't realize it (maybe on the walls during the poker game???)
Who hangs art in a storage basement?

2+2 = 4When he heard her think that, and then they showed him in the locker room talking to his partner I thought it was pretty obvious about the "who" she was thinking of.

Right before he punched the slime bucket, Said slime bucket had the thoughts of:
Loser, I'm nailing his wife and she is soooooooo fine
Then :boxing: :topcat: :thumbup:

I'm fairly certain he thought something like "I'm doing his wife". Where it had already happened.As far as the whole dream thing goes, is it possible there's someone else who has the power but hasn't been exposed yet? Did Peter go to see his brother (and family) before or after the dream sequence? If it was after then is it possible that the wife or one of the sons has the power? Maybe his brother passed it on to 1 or both sons...p.s. There certainly are a LOT of people with mutations in a small area.
