Heroes: The Line...

[fajrdrako]

Much enjoyed. I think this season is picking up.

1. No Nathan. I missed him. No Angela Petrelli. I missed her, too.



2. Sylar, Maya and Alejandro were somewhat interesting. I'd love to think Alejandro understood what Sylar said to him.



3. Speaking of languages, is it possible that Mr. Bennet's power is being able to speak all languages, as necessary? Loved his scene with the man from Odessa. And I always love seeing the Haitian.



4. Peter goes to Montreal! Yay! He's practically in my neighbourhood. (Give or take a few hundred kilometres.)



5. Monica seems awfully... juvenile. Helpless. Clueless. Something. I can't feel much enthusiasm for her. Another weak female character. She may not cry as much as Maya, but she looks worried as much as Alejandro. (No, the new characters don't impress me at all!) But I do like Monica's powers, and I liked seeing her do gymnastics for Mohinder. I liked it that he wouldn't inject her, but I despair of his honesty. Wouldn't some kind of subterfuge or deception have been a better idea?



6. No Elle. I don't know yet what I think of her story, but I'm curious and it was frustrating not to learn more about her.



7. What's up with Niki/Jessica? What's she planning? Is he plotting against the Company, or against Mohinder? Or does Jessica have one agenda and Niki another? (That would be like in first season.)



8. I'm hoping Hiro will leave the 17th century soon.



9. As usual, I like Isaac's art and I hope we get more of that theme, and see more of his comics and paintings.

The fast-forward button on my VCR has been getting a work out this season.

1. No Nathan = fast-forward
   
   
2. Sylar/Maya/Alejandro's driving/killing/crying spree = fast-forward (view through slitted eyes)
   
   
3. Mr. Bennet/Haitian is it possible that Mr. Bennet's power is being able to speak all languages? Do you mean like a human Babel fish? Now that would be an interesting power to have. Loooove the Haitian. He doesn't even need to speak; just his presence in a scene makes it more compelling.
   
   
4. Peter/Irish chicky = intermittent fast-forward. Like Peter. Chicky makes me crazy. Wish she'd disappear already and Peter would get back into the main story.
   
   
5. Who? Whatever = fast-forward
   
   
6. Again, who? Totally whatever = fast-forward
   
   
7. Jessica/Nicki = intermittent fast-forward. I'm not a big fan of J/N but it seems like this storyline might be going somewhere sooner rather than later. I'm staying hopeful.
   
   
8. Love me the Hiro (and Ando!). I agree, fajrdrako, I'm having fun with the 17th century scenes (especially the part where the "past" has changed) but I'm anxious for his return to the "present".
   
   
9. I'm so glad to see Isaac's art is still a plot point. I thought the comic book art made the series feel different from other shows.
   

I'm disappointed in Claire this season. Her storylines aren't helping her, either. I've been fast-forwarding past her, the bitchy cheerleadering captain and Clark Kent.

And for Smallville fans, I'd like to note that the new head cheerleader is something of a Lana clone. So we have a boring Clark clone, a boring Lana clone... and Claire. At least Hiro's new story this season has its moments. Claire's... not so much. Unless she's talking to her dad.

So true! I've caught myself thinking, "And there's Lana," and then, "Oops, no, she's not a cheerleader any more. Wrong show!"

It doesn't help the annoyance factor.

I don't know what Claire needs to do, but I didn't feel I needed to see yet another round of cheerleading tryouts! Send her to Odessa with her father. Send her to wherever Claude is. Send her to Montreal with Peter. Send her to prison with her Grandma. Send her to hang out with Nathan. Anything!
