Heroes

[Mackus]

Ten hours away from tonight's show. A couple of questions to get the ball rolling today

1. Will Sylar pick Ted's brain (so to speak) tonight?
2. Why does Linderman think that Micah is the key to stopping Sylar?
3. If Peter can read minds now, why doesn't he know more about what Nathan really knows about Linderman's plan?

1. I don't think so.
2. I believe Micah is going to use his powers to somehow rig the election to get Nathan elected.
3. This is a good point. He has only used Parkman's ability when Parkman was around, kind of strange.

1. Re: Ted... just based on the previews, Im thinking that with Peter saying "He's going to blow up the city," and Sylar saying "BOOM"... Ted is toast in this episode
2. I think you are correct regarding Micah.
3. Same thing for Mama Petrelli. Why doesn't he just read her mind too? Maybe he has encountered so many heroes, sometimes he forgets to use powers he has acquired.

Maybe someone mentioned it earlier, but how did Peter get that scar, if he can heal? That would mean the Haitian had to be nearby blocking powers, right? It really does look like it came from a sword, as well. It's a pretty straight cut. Of course, it could come from a launched projectile as well, I suppose.

Maybe Peter decided to not completely heal and keep that scar as some sort of a reminder???

NBC just announced a spin off show for Heroes called Heroes:Origins.

Sounds like a really cool idea. A nice way to spend the weeks during hiatus.

Variety reported today on the announcement of “Heroes: Origins,” a spin-off of NBC's hit drama series "Heroes." The new "Origins" seires will be composed of stand-alone episodes centering on characters not yet seen on the original show. Viewers will be asked to pick their favorite “Origins” character who will then join the cast of “Heroes” itself. Series creator Tim Kring will oversee the new “Origins” show, which will be produced simultaneously with “Heroes.”

“Heroes: Origins” will air Monday night in the “Heroes” timeslot after the mother show ends its season or when it goes on hiatus, allowing the franchise to run virtually uninterrupted by reruns or non-“Heroes” related programming. NBC has ordered six episodes of "Origins," making for thirty total hours of "Heroes." Despite rumors to the contrary, “Heroes” will not be moved to a new timeslot to bolster weaker programming on other nights of the week, and will maintain its Monday night presence.

I think this could be a really neat character development tool. It should allow them to fill in a lot of gaps without eating up normal broadcast time. If they were smart, they would do more of this through their website, by making shorter clips available online to help people get details on characters and past storylines

O man, this is crazy how everyone is just all converging together!

Mackus... guess I called point number one, and you win point number two

[Jagwar]

Great episode... only one left.

SPOILERS (highlight between the *** to read)

***
- Awesome... now Sylar and Peter both have Ted's power
- Glad to see Linderman taken out. Surprised that DL was the one to do it
- Did Sylar turn invisible after he tipped off the FBI agents?
- In the preview for next week, Peter and Sylar face off in front of the stair structure, and then Peter has blood on his shirt when talking to Claire. Is it Peter's or Sylar's? And thanks to Tivo, it looks like Claire is the one jumping out of the window.

Do you think Linderman is really dead? I just ask the question because he obviously has some sort of healing power himself.

TJagwar, I don't think Sylar went invisible he just walked away. The only way he could go invisible is if he killed Claude.

As for next week there is so much too look forward to. I'm very curious to see what happens with HRG, Seresh and the little girl.

I do think he is dead. He had the power to heal other things/people, but it seemed like it required conscious thought. Kind of hard to do that with a fist sized hole in the back of the head.

TJagwar, I don't think Sylar went invisible he just walked away. The only way he could go invisible is if he killed Claude.

My point exactly. Maybe he did just that. He had the freeze power, we never saw how he got that, did we?

[Lt Melmo]

I don't know if Linderman is completely done for... it just seems incomplete, a hero dying and neither Peter or Sylar getting their power. Plus, he has such a huge role in the big picture... we'll definitely see him next season, but maybe not in the present.

In the Peter's premonition, we see Simone, Claude, and DL. We know that Simone is dead, DL is probably dead, and Claude might be dead based on Sylar's disappearance. So... my current theory is that Peter's whole premonition of blowing up is an illusion cast by Candace. Ted might also have been in the premonition, but I could be wrong.

Or it might just be that Peter's premonition took place before certain things were rectified by saving the cheerleader

O man this is starting to make my head hurt.
