Heroes Season 3

[Exoduso]

Nathan is an idiot.

[Palin]

Hey look Tracey turned out to be a useless character now too. She did absolutely nothing to turn Nathan, all he needed was a quick trip to Haiti to see the wretched lives of some slave women. Wtf was the point of her again?

I still don't understand how Nikki looked perfectly fine in her coffin, even though she supposedly died in an explosion.

[Kerberoz]

Wtf is the point of Ali Larter, again? Her characters have both been annoying and extraneous. We could have done without her entire family, as they've never contributed anything to the plot, but the producers needed some non-white people. On top of that, she may actually be a worse actress than, or at least tied with, emomidget. She always looks like she's just waiting for the scene to be over to go jump into some coke party.

[Katlan]

It just seemed sloppy to me. Then again the whole season has been pretty sloppy.

The season has tried to move to fast for its own good. Gotta realize Arthur is gonna die next episode (not a big spoiler - it was obvious and mentioned by others), and does it really feel like it has climaxed to that scene so far!? I know there is a "twist" after he gets killed, but common... does anybody feel like there has been buildup to this badass moment? They just got to the Hiatan last episode.

On another note: I guess I can kinda understand why Sylar killed Elle, but it came off as rushed and w/o emotion. If he just got his powers back he prolly hadn't regained control of "the hunger" yet and let it get the best of him, but why didnt Elle scream at all? She just took her head being slit open silently w/ an odd smile on her face. It looked like she knew it was comming, but still... that should be intolerable pain right there.

And the entire thing w/ Daphne & Matt... if they didnt try to rush so much stuff they coulda put some more emotion into it and made it meaningful... it's not hard to show Matt caring for her while she cant walk and him saying some mushy stuff.. but he instead just runs to the comic shop? lol... They pulled off the multiple story telling scene's very well in Season 1 and pretty good in season 2 also, but I dunno what's happens so far w/this season.

And wtf ever happened w/ the whole hospital thing? Wasn't Claire's parents gonna be investigated? I guess her mom only needed to say " we need to get you out of here" for everything to be allright lol

This is the problem w/ them trying to cover too much ground to shortly. This arc would of been much better if it was made longer (though I know they are still trying to clean up the writers strike mess - so I expect greatness once this arc is over and the new one starts in February).

So, when does Seth Green realize his power?

He already has, you don't think that beard is natural do you?

Spoiler: show

I don't think there will be any sort of a good climax to this season unless something huge happens soon. The whole throwing away of themes mentioned earlier sort of ruins any chance that the story can have a big tension->release effect that a good story with a good climax needs. I thought the story would build up with Arthur becoming more powerful/evil/etc and eventually end with them finding a way to stop him and his plans, but if he dies next episode, then I guess that can't happen.

I agree with the whole throwing away of themes thing mentioned earlier. The eclipse should have been huge. They made it seem that way leading up to it, but it's overall effect didn't seem to be that big of a deal. I thought the level 5 escapees would cause some havoc and destruction for a while and be a big deal in the story, but that was done the very next episode.

Also, Claire's infections bothered me. Am I to assume that even with incredible healing powers she never developed antibodies for anything? I'd expect her body to have incredible antibodies for disease and to be able to produce them fast and efficiently. That ability would go away with her powers, but the already existing antibodies and such would still be there and her immune system would still be in place, but at the level of a normal human, not non-existent.

I guess another explanation is that she doesn't fight disease, but instead immediately heal from any damage done to her by any pathogen. But then when she used her blood to heal her dad, he would have died from a massive infection from huge amounts of pathogens being introduced into his system, wouldn't he? Or at least get very sick for a while as his immune system fights off a big dose of everything Claire's every been exposed to.

[Eaglestrike]

I sort of assumed the "infection" Claire had was the catalyst in her. Not sure exactly how that is supposed to work, but I just sorta thought that. And Claire didn't die from losing her powers because she's not hundreds of years old. However, it makes 0 sense for this eclipse to happen and Adam didn't die from any earlier ones which very well could have done the same shit throughout his hundreds of years of eclipses.

Stuff

Man, it's just a tv show meant to entertain. This isn't directed at anyone in particular, but when you start to look at it for more than it really is, it stops becoming fun. I don't too in depth to it. I mean last nights episode was ridiculous in the comic book shop, and I loved it. Sure there's a few plot holes here and there. What tv show doesn't have them? People look for too much meaning and depth from shows nowadays. In fact, I have nothing but love for season 3 so far. It's still better than 99% of the other shit on TV.

[Eticket]

It can still be a fun show. My wife loves it and watches it religiously. The cracks are definitely starting to show though. There hasn't been an episode yet this season with as many or more viewers than the lowest viewed episodes in season one or season two.

I'd expect her body to have incredible antibodies for disease and to be able to produce them fast and efficiently. That ability would go away with her powers, but the already existing antibodies and such would still be there and her immune system would still be in place, but at the level of a normal human, not non-existent.

There is also the point that while she may have always had her power, it was not always active. Unless they want to say she just never got sick, but was still unable to heal instantly from physical wounds. Otherwise, she should have had at least the antibodies built up from when she did not have her power active, it wasn't that long ago in show-time.

[Kuya]

I didn't understand the immune system bit. If i'm not mistaken, the ability to heal all wounds is nowhere near the same thing as absolute immunity to all invasive lifeforms. Unless they just want to say her body's cells are all on crack.

So, when does Seth Green realize his power?

on the nights surrounding the full moon

on the nights surrounding the full moon

I see what you did there.

It was mentioned a few times but in spoiler tags. I just realized I also posted this info, I'll put it in spoiler tags too.

I just assumed immunity would come with any sort of healing factor in any comic (otherwise when a person gets stabbed or shot or leg chopped off, etc, and heals up they'll get bad infections and die). The fact that she had immune system issues indicate that the immune system was somehow related to her powers.

I remember Wolverine being immune to disease as well, so I'm assuming Heroes would do the same.

then spoiler your quote of said spoiler

[BRP]

One of the fired writers was the shitty ass comic writer that keeps getting his pieces of shit mentioned. Red Hulk and this episode the fucking terrible ultimates 3 or ultimatum, I don't care to remember which.
