Why am I still posting these??? Ugh, the show is getting worse...
Hiro is in the hospital getting seen for his tumor while unconscious. In this state he is undergoing what I can only describe as the typical hero's battle with the underworld/afterlife. In this "struggle" he is on trial for putting himself before the time and space continuum.
The defense is Kensei/Adam Munroe and the trial is judged by Hiro's father. While doing good for many, and somehow helping tons of people, it is apparently considered "selfish" to save one person while letting Sylar live. How does that make sense, because of all the other times he didn't kill Sylar. Even after stabbing him with a sword in season 1. He pleads not guilty, and eventually changes his plea, and gets magically healed by his mother's ghost. Ludicrous. Sylar killed without Hiro, so Hiro not doing anything then PRESERVED Sylar's timeline with the exception of getting Charlie's ability.
Then the healing? Come on, while he can be a good character, some of these people gotta go.
Samuel is trying to get his old lady friend to like him again. She doesn't go for it, so he sends her on his way, and very maturely destroys a town. How grown up of you Samuel.
Over in college land Claire is pushing Gretchen away from herself personally. Sylar shows up and tricks Claire into thinking he has abducted Gretchen. Then attempts to get some information from Claire through his new touchy feely power. She stabs him in the eye, and runs away. Then goes back to her apartment to untie Gretchen(who is a very cliched Sylar in disguise). They hide in a closet and have a heart to heart. Claire realizes she's a friggin idiot for letting a single aspect of herself rule her life and decides she wants some Gretchen love. Sylar gets the idea he may need to lose his power to become more normal.
He then lets Claire know that he didn't abduct Gretchen and is on his merry way after watching Claire come out of a closet to go come out of a closet in the cafeteria with Gretchen. Nice.
What happened to the vengeance quest???
He then is out to find Parkman and have baby touch and go possibly stop his abilities. Lame- In posts a long time ago I suggested that Parkman team up with baby Parkman to wipe Sylar's powers.

Oh, and where did Tracy go? Or Molly? She's been left without any familial support for a long time, both surrogate fathers have forgotten about her. Or any of the other people that just fall off the Heroes world, they all just disappear. Underwater breather, Claude, Luke, or Samson- where are they??? Why isn't Samson looking for a way out of his cancer? He would be a hell of a villain for the many good guys to fight. Epic is what is the potential. Maybe he already has the healing, Sylar can get them without killing, so perhaps he already has it and it's just not activated???
I would also like to see Peter and Sylar work as a team. Or Sylar absorbing Peter's ability and becoming an empath- feeling so much would make him an overly emo leader, but with the capacity to do something about it. I mentioned this a long time ago as well. There is also stupid Peter not taking Sylar's ability, and all subabilities problem still. WTF Heroes writers???
I can't believe I'm still doing these...

Heroes: Close to You
More late Heroes postings. Yay... not really.
In this latest episode Hiro and Ando go and save Mohinder from a Mental Institution of some sort. They kind of wind up in the Institute then all escaping. In the end they teleport away... and show up in Noah's apartment. Wow, big surprise.
Samuel and the Xerox man go off to find the girl Samuel likes. They get her away from Noah and Matt who are attempting to get info. They track her to an empty field, the carnival teleported away or something.
Noah is also sort of told to rebuild his relationship with Claire by Lauren.
Lydia is not happy with Samuel, and tries to do a call to Peter. I think it would be sweet giving control of the Carnival to Peter, it would be in the best interests of all involved. He's an empath and wants to help people, and they are a bunch that need to be helped.
Peter and Angela have dreams involving a terrible future of Emma's. Peter goes to her place and smashes her cello. She gets pissed and sends him away.
Blah blah blah. Oh, yeah, Parkman is having bad feelings about not going after Sylar when he had the chance. Lame-o. He is always running. Oh, can't use my power, can't help my friends, shut up Parkman. Does he even remember his adoptive daughter Molly? Loser. Grow a sack and start DOING something. He has a power to seriously mess with Sylar. Think about it, he could get in Sylar's head, root around to find where he keeps the "sweet spot" that regenerates his body, then use Sylar's own telekinesis on Sylar to have him cut it out. Easy peasy. But nooooooo, he'll probably keep being a whiney baby.
Ugh. I'm sick of these posts, too much potential that isn't being followed through.
I'm quitting for now. Maybe the next post will be more enthusiastic.
Maybe.

Heroes: Let it Bleed
Gabriel Gray goes back to the circus and realizes his Sylar is limp. By not killing Samuel and becoming even more powerful, but he lets him live. Then finds out through Miss Touchy McToucherpants that he is afraid of being alone.
Why doesn't Sylar use the truth hearing to get information from Samuel? Or just take the power of Samuel without killing him? So many things could be done...
Also, I'm pissed about the Puppet Man getting whupped again. That could be such an amazing fight.
He gets a tattoo of what he wants, and it turns out to be Claire. Creepy. So he heads off to stare in her window.
Claire is a whiny idiot again. "Oh, how could you lie to me dad? Did you forget what Sylar did to me? He 'Bad-touched' me in the brain meat!" He let you live stupid. So she makes Noah leave the funeral for Nathan. (Good call on that, eliminating Sylar's use of Nathan's face to gain political power)
She has some talks with Peter. Peter goes off looking to be a hero and gets himself shot. Then Claire reprimands him for not letting things go. Dumbass, she's doing the same thing.
Peter get's Claire's exboyfriend's (West) flight ability and flies off at the end of the episode.
Noah catches and interrogates the speedster for information. He kind of befriends him and they make a hesitant deal to eliminate Samuel. Edgar decides Noah is to violent, and doesn't want his family hurt or separated, so he abandones the plan.
That's about it for now.
Lame.

Heroes: The Fifth Stage
A quick post of the last episode before tonights new one.
Claire and Gretchen steal the magic compass from Noah and go to the circus. Samuel uses deception to make Claire want to join. In the end Samuel gets a man to fight him, but doesn't fight back, Claire steps in, and the man leaves. Samuel has him killed later and the body dumped in a truck.
Noah has a odd encounter with a past almost-fling, but she had her memory wiped so she is hesitant to believe him.
The main portion is Peter going after Sylar to retreive Nathan. He finally gets the Haitian's power to negate Sylar's abilities and put them on a level playing field. He uses a nail gun and punches and harsh language to beat Sylar up, then tries to erase the "Sylar" parts out of Sylar. Obviously Peter should know that healers cannot be mind wiped- a fact proven time and again, they always get better.
Anyway, Nathan comes out, and they try and bond on the rooftop where Peter walked on air. Well Nathan in an act of retardedness tries to commit personality suicide by diving off the edge, but wouldn't his flight be a natural response to save him? Well he smashes into a car below, after Peter and Nathan say their goodbyes, and heals and shifts back into Sylar, who waves to Peter and walks away.
HELLOOOOOOO people- Nathan's body is still in a containment unit and can easily be revived with a healthy dose of Claire blood, so we'll probably be seeing more Nathan. There's also the potential for Sylar to take on Nathan's persona for his own personal gain. More power for himself to do as he pleases.
Where did Parkman go to? He looked to be on a determined mission, but as to what it was... ???
I look forward to Parkman becoming a serious force to be reckoned with. Another nightmare man, but perhaps for good.
Whatever- I have to wait and see how things go.
