Thanks for the spoilers, everyone. I didn't watch the episode last night, so I really do appreciate the spoilers.

Malcolm McDowell, eh? That's pretty cool.

And liv, this is for you...

BTW: Do any of you watch Heroes in HD?

I ask because I watched a part of last night's episode off of my DVR and the colors were funky. I saw some ghosting of images, particualry whenever the light and color were saturated (such as the scene of Hiro getting tossed out of the casino during the opening).

I don't think it's my TV, as other HD programming does not suffer from this, and even last week's episode of Heroes in HD I noticed color problems. This was especially prominent whenever colors were saturated, like the blue in Isaac's loft.

I watched it in HD, but didn't notice any ghosting. I did have a couple of hiccups where the channel just went black for a second, though.

Alright, whatever the problem was with the "ghosting" it was probably the satellite signal. It cleared up after about a 1/4 of the show.

And what a show!

Just when I thought the forces of good were finally on the ascent...BAM! HRG gets busted! Hiro and Ando end up in an apocalyptic future! Mohinder gets smart, gets dumb and then gets nailed to the ceiling! Peter loses his curl!

And now this thread will be dead until April 23rd.

Inexplicably, LOST continues to air.

Yeah, I guess Hiro got his powers back just as honed as they were before: ie, not very honed at all. I was thinking the sword would hook him up with a little more mojo, ya know?

Maybe there is some hidden mojo at work. Maybe he's in the future to learn something about the past?

He was able to port both himself and Ando, so there's a increase in his powers.

I'm relieved that Nathan didn't kill Linderman. Not because I think Nathan needs to be morally ambiguous (especially since HRG seems to be decidedly on the side of angels now), but I felt unease at the prospect of murder. I think the scene played out really well. I couldn't tolerate Nathan killing a man in cold blood.

Interesting thread! I bought Heroes for my iPod and watched the whole series during my daily jaunts on the eliptical machine. I can't wait until April 23rd. This show rocks!

Don't forget to read the online comics: http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/novels/

They might be updating them during the hiatus, since there have been two comics since the last episode... I think they might be a weekly thing.

Sweet, thanks. Do we know if the comics are fanfic or from the series writers?

They're from the writers - some of the characters in the show have been introduced in the comics before they were on screen.

I don't know if this has been posted here yet, but there's the Heroes Fan Wiki.

Had to get new glasses this past weekend. Unfortunately, my eyesight is so bad that it precludes me from getting the same glasses that HRG makes so damned stylish.

Damn these eyes!

He deserved it though. Too bad Walks-Through-Walls Guy couldn't react quickly enough to let that bullet pass.

So, does Sylar eat the brains like the little girl said?
