I personally hope Peter is dead because of this.

Its kinda no fun when the guy has every single power to use.

I expect their budget next year is higher, and maybe the battle scenes will get a little more involved.
I doubt it. In the 5 years future episode, Peter survived the first time he was the bomb. I don't see why he wouldn't survive it again. Sure he's got to survive the fall back down to earth, but as long as his spine stays intact, Claire's strength and/or Nathan's flight will save him.
I thought the same thing - the point was to stop the bomb blowing up NY.Now, NATHAN might be dead. No sign he is able to survive being the close to the bomb unless he let Peter go.

I think we see every character whose life is in peril back for next year. Of course, they now have some great salary negotiating leverage with some of them. :goodposting:

 
Who says Sylar crawled away? He could have been dragged away. I think the roach is a bad guy that helped Sylar. We also saw a roach in his cell when he managed to get free.
Shapeshifter, maybe?Also, whatever happened to the Invisible Man? They didn't tie up that storyline, or even hint at it, these last few episodes.

I think the roach is just symbolism for his ability to figure out how to survive
The producers have mentioned that the roach is a symbol of survival and of adaptability. They can survive anything basically. There have roaches in the show about 3-4 other times.

re-watched #1 during the SciFi marathon - Suresh makes a big deal about how roaches, not humans, are the most evolved creatures on the planet.

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe the villain Molly's afraid of is Urulu and he dragged Syler into the sewer to absorb his powers.
 
Definitely should have been 2 hrs. A solid hour, but it could have been more.

Molly's reference is definitely next year's big bad. That is straight out of Joss Whedon's playbook in Buffy. He'd throw a reference or two to next year's villain for those paying attention.

I no longer thing Mama Petrelli gave Peter the dreaming power. I think it was Simone's father. His conversation with Peter was just an outgrowth of the power by someone who has mastered it. Mama's power is now anybody's guess.

Sylar's escape was a little too cheesy. Yes, it's a comic book standard, but everybody ignoring his "dead" body really pushes the bounds. Combined with the fact he is really over powered for the universe makes it a little annoying, with extra unexplained powers such as the "hiding in plain sight" bit (Good for dramatic effect, but powerwise it comes from left-field). But it does give him the chance to get Candace and her illusion power...

Hiro having a prolonged stay in 1671 Japan could be a very bad idea as it is too far removed from the rest of the ensemble.

 
Really, the only thing that bothered me in the finale is that when Nikki knocked out illusion girl, she should have morphed back to what she actually looks like since the hot brunette is an illusion.

I was waiting for this as well. Wanted to see some 300 lb fat slob

Is it confirmed that isn't her? I know we speculated but I don't recall it being proven.

She told Micah that she was fat when she was eating potatoe chips and he mentioned that his friend or cousin eats like her and is really fat.

Well not to argue a minor point but that's not exactly what was said. As I recall Micah said he had a friend that ate like her and was fat. She said something about being judged by your looks but never said she was now fat in reality. Maybe she was and lost the weight. I just don't recall us ever having any proof she was going to be overweight when not controlling her image.

Overall I didn't mind the episode but they stopped well short of what it could have been.

Two points that haven't been mentioned yet where they could have improve things....

When Hiro appeared, Sylar turned and was fully aware of him. How could Hiro close the 10-15 foot gap and still stab Sylar without him doing something about it. Only a minute or so earlier Parkman came out of nowhere and fired off 5 bullets that Sylar was able to stop. Bullets are easier to stop than a man with a sword? It should have been a near instaneous 'appear then kill' motion. That I could have swallowed.

Second was that I really didn't need Nathan's diatribe about his time to make a sacrifice. Claire should have pulled the trigger with Nathan swooping in at the last second to pull Peter into the sky and have him blow up. Writers need to stop treating their audiences like idiots. It isn't necessary for a character to explain the 'why' of his actions. Actions generally speak for themselves.

 
This seems to be a disappointing season for season finales overall (from what I've seen). When Numb3rs had the best season finale that I've seen this season, that is really sad.

 
BTW I agree with most. Since when is a show's season finale probably the worst episode of the season? The fight between Peter and Sylar shouldve been better. I hope Peter is not dead since he's one of my favorite characters. Im thinking hes alive. Also, the whole Japan ending was kind of stupid.

As for Sylar, yeah it was kind of cheesy but Im glad hes still alive. He is one of my favorite characters as well. Plus a good actor. I assume he will team up with the person Molly cant see who is worse than Sylar. Should be cool for next season.

You know you are right I do recall that now. But she could have been being less then truthful. Personally I would assume her metabolism would run high as shape shifting is generally shown as taking a lot of energy. But be that as it may she didn't plump up when out so I guess we are left with not fat.

She's not a shapeshifter. She alters what other people see. Which is why, when all the illusions disappear, we should have seen her the way she actually looks. I guess she may actualy be a hot brunette, but that would sort of make her conversation with Micah about judging people based on their appearances sort of meaningless.

Not if you are talking to someone who's appearance can change any time they want thus making the outer not so important to judge by.
 
This seems to be a disappointing season for season finales overall (from what I've seen). When Numb3rs had the best season finale that I've seen this season, that is really sad.
Numb3rs finale did blow me away, great ending. Best episode of the season by far.However, I have been continually impressed with Heroes all season long, and for the finale to not deliver isn't that bothering for me because nearly every other episode was great. This episode was great to, just not a great finale.
 
The fist fight was rather lame. You need to kill the guy, yet you stand there giving him an old fashioned beat down with your fists instead of using your powers to give him a whooping?

:goodposting:

The Nicki save was lame too and rather unnecessary. Sylar pulled the Vader choke on Peter once already, but Peter still stood there and let him do it again. As mentioned above with the Hiro charge, there is no way Sylar would let Nicki get that close to him.

 
All in all, I thought the last two episodes were pretty weak:

1. Hiro's faster than fast training in Kendo.

2. Sylar getting stabbed - Hiro didn't teleport up and stab him, he ran up to him at normal speed after Sylar had already spotted him.

3. Parkman took 4 high caliber bullets to the chest and didn't die

4. Why didn't Peter fly himself away?

5. No one saw Sylar drag himself away? Seriously? You've all been pursuing and or frightened of this guy for weeks and you don't notice him dragging his eviscerated body 20 feet to a manhole cover?

All in all - weak, weak, weak and weak. It's like they tried to wrap everything up faster than the pace they set in setting everything up. Pretty disapointed.

ETA:

6. Shapeshifter shifting to her fake shape and not her fat shape.

:boxing: He died
They didn't have his face covered and they put him in an ambulance. You don't put people in ambulances who are found dead at the scene. You wait for the coroner and he bags them. Maybe he did die, but if so, they did a bad job of showing it.Oh, and

7. The square isn't crawling with cops after shots are fired, someone is killed, there's a bloody trail leading to a manhole and a high altitude nuclear explosion just occurred?

I actually liked the Nikki save. I was expecting the good guys to all contribute, and that was the one instance where it came together. I don't count Hiro's strike, because it was so completely lame. But what I was most disappointed with was that Peter didn't use any of his powers in the battle.

Agreed, except #4. Peter said he was overloading and couldn't control his powers.

3 - i think Parkman is dead4 - is it that much of a stretch to assume that if the nuclear power is out of control for Peter, that he doesnt have controls over other powers at the time too?6 - In the past episode when talking to Micah she did say she is "huge", but we dont know she is fat. This could easily be a woman insecurity issue. Ive had past GFs in fantastic shape think they are "huge" too.
 
Quick points:

- Lame Hiro killing Sylar scene. After all that training, he runs at him full steam and Sylar doesn't react?

- The shape-shifter said something like, "How do you know I'm not a big fatty" which doesn't confirm or deny she is.

- Overall, the finale was disappointing. Heroes:Lost::Sirloin:Filet

- I called Simone's dad having the dream power first :pat:

- We don't know if ANYONE died last night. DL? Sylar? Peter? Nathan? Parkman? Very typical comic book stuff, as any or all could be back next year.

I'll give you 4 and who knows on 3, but now way on 6. She made at least two reference to being unpresentable. Once to Michah with the "I am" comment and once when she talked about how people always judge others on appearance. The writes of this show aren't so subtle that they are writing in minor self-image issues into their characters and presenting them in cutesy ways like that.
 
Quick points:- Lame Hiro killing Sylar scene. After all that training, he runs at him full steam and Sylar doesn't react?- The shape-shifter said something like, "How do you know I'm not a big fatty" which doesn't confirm or deny she is.- Overall, the finale was disappointing. Heroes:Lost::Sirloin:Filet- I called Simone's dad having the dream power first :pat:- We don't know if ANYONE died last night. DL? Sylar? Peter? Nathan? Parkman? Very typical comic book stuff, as any or all could be back next year.
From the graphic novel it looks like DL will be fine...
 
1. Hiro's faster than fast training in Kendo.
Never thought it was training, more building confidence and releasing what Hiro already had inside him.
2. Sylar getting stabbed - Hiro didn't teleport up and stab him, he ran up to him at normal speed after Sylar had already spotted him.
I think this had more to do with Sylar's ego and thinking that Hiro couldn't do it, this his look of surprise when he did.
3. Parkman took 4 high caliber bullets to the chest and didn't die
But he did die, but I do think they did a bad job of showing it.

5. No one saw Sylar drag himself away? Seriously? You've all been pursuing and or frightened of this guy for weeks and you don't notice him dragging his eviscerated body 20 feet to a manhole cover?
Again, I think this comes down to them expecting he was dead and not a threat. All in all these are a bunch of weak individuals. But I do think someone would have saw it too.
6. Shapeshifter shifting to her fake shape and not her fat shape.
Who said she is fat? She was talking to Micah, but didn't say she was.
 
I thought Parkman had a body vest on to protect him?

Anyway, terrific episdoe, at least for me, every step of the way. I would have liked an additional hour but only because I enjoy the show so much.

I'm glad the fight scene with Peter and Sylar was minimal. Anything else would have bothered me, frankly.

Looking forward to next season. :popcorn:

 
Hmm...not sure if this is coincidental or on purpose...

Apparently a writer on LOST and a writer on Heroes are good buddies.

Urulu on Lost AND Heroes
Uluru is another name for Ayer's Rock in Australia. A holy place for local aboriginal peoples.Urulu is speculated to be a villain in Heroes.

They are spelled similarly, and in some instances on some message boards spelled the same, but I think it's coincidence, nonetheless.

I'm sure it's been posted before, but I found this it the Wikipedia site, perhaps from the NBC.com Heroes site.

Talks about "Heroes: Origins" a six episode mini-series supposedly on the air during the mid-season hiatus next year. it will supposedly feature one Hero per episode with viewers deciding, I guess by viewer voting, who will join the cast in season three. Wiki link

Heroes: Origins is an upcoming American science fiction drama television series, a spinoff of NBC's hit show Heroes. Heroes: Origins will introduce one new character per episode, and viewers will choose which character will join the main cast at the end of the run. The second season of Heroes and the first season of Heroes: Origins will include a total of 30 episodes.

The reason given for the spin-off was to remove the mid-season hiatus, which caused the ratings to falter when Heroes returned in Season 1. "We've got something I call the 'bulk-up challenge' for next year, which is trying to stay more consistent in our scheduling for the audience," NBC chief Kevin Reilly told reporters Monday (5/14) at a press conference announcing the network's 2007-08 schedule. "We asked ['Heroes' creator] Tim Kring to come up with an idea, and what I love is not only did we bulk up with 30 hours next season, but also a whole new idea which I think is going to take the show to the next level." While not all scheduling details have been hashed out, Reilly says, "I'll tell you one thing you won't see is 'Origins' peppered throughout, I think that would be difficult for the audience to navigate."

Outside of 3 and 4, you're reaching. Hiro didn't just have confidence - he was proficiently wielding his kendo staff against his father. The rest is just bad writing and was a cop-out for what should have been a blow out finale.

Well of course, it is a TV show based on people who can turn invisible and fly. Reaching is part of it lol :shrug:
 
1. Hiro's faster than fast training in Kendo.
Never thought it was training, more building confidence and releasing what Hiro already had inside him.
2. Sylar getting stabbed - Hiro didn't teleport up and stab him, he ran up to him at normal speed after Sylar had already spotted him.
I think this had more to do with Sylar's ego and thinking that Hiro couldn't do it, this his look of surprise when he did.
3. Parkman took 4 high caliber bullets to the chest and didn't die
But he did die, but I do think they did a bad job of showing it.
4. Why didn't Peter fly himself away?
Because he was afraid and couldn't control his powers.
5. No one saw Sylar drag himself away? Seriously? You've all been pursuing and or frightened of this guy for weeks and you don't notice him dragging his eviscerated body 20 feet to a manhole cover?
Again, I think this comes down to them expecting he was dead and not a threat. All in all these are a bunch of weak individuals. But I do think someone would have saw it too.
6. Shapeshifter shifting to her fake shape and not her fat shape.

Don't give me that rolleyes ####. That's a cop out too. Look - just because you have a fantastic setting does not mean that you can't leave giant plot holes lying around, embrace bad writing or inconsitencies. Look at George RR Martin's books. As fantastical as it gets, yet the writing is solid, plot hole free and the characters are as deep and textured as any you will find in literature.
