Erase his memory?  More like steal his powers and/or kill him.

Show spoiler

Don't worry, though.  Hiro will be saved.

...by Ando.

...with a shovel.

That's right, the villain who is worse than the villains of season one and season two put together is going to get his brains bashed in by a guy with no powers.  You heard it here first.

I feel sorry for the African guy. He was a good character

I can not believe you guys have not reviewed the next episode which I saw on BBC3 on Wednesday night. did it not show on the USA or through the Internet? Any here what I think about the episode:

Show spoiler

Arthur wipe out some of Hiro's memory and Ando saved Hiro in time but now Hiro thinks he is 10 years old. There is a very cute scene were Hiro was playing around at the bowling ally

While Matt and Daphne were saving Angela Petrelli, Daphne confess  her true feelings for Matt saying that she loves him.

Clarie is the key of something I wasn't really paying attention.

And there a sexy connection between Sylar and Ellie. yum


Tracy joins Arthur Petrelli side.

Clarie is the key of something I wasn't really paying attention.

The formula still doesn't work, even with both halves.  There's a third piece hidden in someone's blood.  Claire is that person, or at least she thinks that she is.

And there a sexy connection between Sylar and Ellie. yum

I've never used the puke smiley before, but I am sorely tempted to do so now.

Tracy joins Arthur Petrelli side.

It seems more like she's trying to play both sides against the middle.  That'll probably end up getting her killed.  Then we'll get to meet Barbara in season four.

So a person with healing factor turns out to be the key to human mutation of powers. Kinda sad making Wolverine the centre of things again....oh sorry I was reading Ulimate Origins, what were we talking about.

Well as much as I enjoyed Hiro in season one for the shear charm of his character revaling in his ablilites, resetting his memory to a younger Hiro seems like lazy story telling to try and recapture that charm.

[Reply #486 on:]

Hmmm can't be bothered doing a recap or giving my comments on this episode. Was alright, a few leads, but nothing "omg" worthy... really...

[Reply #487 on:]

3x10

Okay better episode... all about The Eclipse... nothing is a coincidence. Everything happens for a reason. Etc etc.

so not only does the eclipse stop everyone's abilities, it reversed Mohinders? Also, should we ignore that not everywhere in the world experiences the eclipse in full at the same time...? And, how long does this frickin eclipse last for? I thought they only went for a few minutes at a time.. what's everyone so impatient about??

lol yay seth green and breckin meyer!! I knew i saw their names on the opening credits. Yay!

okay wut? Daphne's legs? 'splain please!!

onoes, claire?

Big schloppy kiss should make Juliet happy.. heh

[Reply #488 on:]

Daphne's legs:

Show spoiler

The human body isn't built to run that fast.

[Reply #489 on:]

It wasn't meant to fly, either.  They dropped a pretty flagrant enough hint that she was a cripple before she manifested.

Also, longest eclipse ever.

[Reply #490 on:]

Also, longest eclipse ever.

I know, rite? What the hell?

[Reply #491 on:]

hehe yeah but don't like Elllie much as I like Sylar.

It was a really good episode. cool to see the The Haitian (another hottie) Interesting about Daphne, Peter is still Annoying, and how can Noah leave an injured Clarie like that

[Reply #492 on:]

Hiro needs to stay 10 years old. He's way more competent.

[Reply #493 on:]

Some of these characters need to stay dead...

[Reply #494 on:]

I used to watch this show, but the characters were the most annoying little douches I've ever seen. That cheerleader better be dead by now. Fuck.

[Reply #495 on:]

[Reply #496 on:]

yeah, gotta say my love affair with this show is pretty much dead now. It's nothing but habit that keeps me watching at this point and unless something drastic changes I don't think that habit will last much longer.

Come to think of it, the constant drastic changes are the problem in the first place. Can't someone just slap the writing staff? Or maybe the cast could go on strike until they are given better scripts in which their characters actually have some consistancy and develop over time instead of just flopping around wildly to justify twisting the plot to follow some opium-induced dream Kring had the night before?

[Reply #497 on:]

Yeah, I stopped watching awhile back myself.  I might watch the whole season later if I get a better internet connection... but meh.

[Reply #498 on:]

Seen it last night

Show spoiler

Wasn't it Sylar that got every body's powers back because it might not be Claries.

Ohhh Another hot and sexy scenes with Sylar and Ellie, stupid girl.

I am looking forward to what happened when Hiro and Clarie when to the past to find out about their fathers

Storyline breakdown:

Daphne, Matt and Ando: C
Nathan, Ali LarTwo and SeizureMarine: C-
Petrelli Prime: D
Hiro: A (So cute!  So sad!)
Claire Squared: C (The encounter could create a time paradox, the results of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space time continuum, and destroy the entire universe! Granted, that's a worse case scenario. The destruction might in fact be very localized, limited to merely our own galaxy.)
Peter and the Haitian Who Was Way More Badass When He Didn't Talk: C-
Sylar: A+ (The cake is a lie!)

[Reply #500 on:]

Evil Sylar back

Aww Hiro too cute. 

[Reply #501 on:]

Comments:

• Daphne/Matt's "I love you/I don't love you" thing is getting old, good thing Ando's there or it would suck worse than Maya/Alejandro.
• The Marine was lame.
• Daddy Petrelli + Bullet + Sylar = Awesome
• Claire was a little more interesting, but still sucks.
• Hiro's story was one of the best Heroes has had in a while. Too bad there wasn't a lot of Sulu...
• Speaking of Sulu, what the fuck happened to Grandma Uhuru?

[Reply #502 on:]

Kring wrote out Nikki and her whole extended family when he "reinvented" her as ... whatever her new name is, I can't be bothered to remember all of kring's "plot twists."

This means Micah is gone as well - didn't care much for his character (never developed much really) but he was the only technopath in the series. They could've at least had Sylar or Peter absorb the power before they wrote him off... :sigh:

[Reply #503 on:]

Have you ever read Heroes as Herpes?

A friend of mine did that

[Reply #504 on:]

promising

[Reply #505 on:]

Not holding my breath. Perhaps he was just being political but I wouldn't describe any part of the villians arc as good. This season has had some good moments but the main story, if you can even call it that, is just plain terrible by design im(nsh)o.

[Reply #506 on:]

Meanwhile, Entertainment Weekly also got to talk to Bryan Fuller ("Pushing Daisies"), who's rejoining the show as a consultant. Here's a bit on "Fugitives," which kicks-off on February 2:

It really is a fresh start. All of the characters are back in their real lives. You see Peter as a paramedic. Claire is looking for colleges. We get away from the world of formulas and quasi-magic.

Yes. Episodes 14, 15 and 16 are amazing. The whole "Fugitives" arc starts out very strongly, and then it gets a little dense in the middle in terms of the mythology. So I came in right at the point where everybody was realizing, "Oh, we're getting too dense here and we need to put faces on stories because there is no face to a formula; there is no face to saving the world." So it's turning this big ship back into a character stream, and everyone on the writing staff shares that desire. We need to get back into a character place, because that's where this story started: Very clean, superhero metaphors to everyday life. That's the path that we're taking. But it is a big ship so it's going to take a little while to turn it.

[Reply #507 on:]

So the timeline's getting wiped? Again? While it seems preferable to continuing with the direction it's been going, it seems more like the lesser of two evils than a good thing.

[Reply #508 on:]

He can't mean something as inelegant as a full-scale reset, can he?  I would imagine something more along the lines of things coming full circle.  Maybe Pete will get Linderman's healer-thingy.

[Reply #509 on:]

Show spoiler

So, Hiro's power plus Ando's new power = total series timeline reset, I assume?

[Reply #510 on:]

Not until Micah builds some giant robots and calls them SentinelsGuardians

[Reply #511 on:]

I thought Ando's power was Gambit's at first.

Also:

If only we really did elect a Klingon...

[Reply #512 on:]

If people with abilities are shipped to a small island off the coast of Africa where they are forced to build giant robots, I'm going to be pissed.

[Reply #513 on:]

Well, they have to run through as many key X-Men storylines as possible before the X-Men franchise can get around to them. I mean, that's just common sense, right?

[Reply #514 on:]

[Reply #515 on:]

Ok time to predict the story line after fugitives.

Hiro goes over the edge when Syler kills Ando. To stop this he travels back in time with (oh i don't know, lets say) Parkman hitching a ride back with him. Hiro tries to kill sylar but accidently kills Peter. Without Peter around the plan to give every one powers succeeds and ushers in The Age Of Patreli (does not matter which as they are pretty interchangeable) with Sylar leading the resistance against them nad Parkmen as the time displaced observer.

Surely the comics industry have never done a story line like that :P

Speaking of those who are time displaced, did they ever reveal what happened to that irish woman Peter left in the infected future?

[Reply #516 on:]

Ahem. Prof X's son, Legion, emerged from a comatose state and promptly traveled through time to go back and kill magneto. He accidentally killed Xavier instead. Age of Apocalypse alternate timeline ensued.

[Reply #517 on:]

Indeed and his intended target Magneto went on to become the leader of the resistance, even had a kid with Rogue as well. Bishop was also a displaced time traveler in that story.

Come to think of it Suresh is becoming more and more like Mr Sinister (a genetics Professor who is derided by most of his peers but finds a way to become a mutant himself and then get's alittle obsessed with it.)

Villains was teh suck, makes volume 2 look good!

Oh yay, end of Volume Three - what a relief. Bring on Volume 4!!!
