Now let's talk about Heroes :)

[nikkiARNGwife]

Geez..I need a life...I watch too much TV...maybe I just need my hubby to come home and take over the remote again lol ..anyhoo...

What about last night's episode? It was okay...kind of "settled" after the chaos that we've gotten used to from that show kwim? It was good to see Claire toned down without all that make-up on..she actually looked like a teenager.

Here's my question...I thought that Peter's power now was that he absorbed others' powers whenever he touched them...so when he touched his mother in the elevator at the end of last week, wouldn't he have absorbed her power and not be able to fly anymore...or maybe it has to be skin on skin contact...but he definitely touched her hands in the church...so now will he go to sleep and have a dream you think?

[suze]

oh I never thought about that! maybe!

What I thought was crazy was the whole Sylar part. So now he can shape shift. That for sure isn't good. I can't believe he's teamed up with that guy.

Claire does look so much better without all the makeup! I'm happy to see her with her dad. I'm looking forward to seeing how they reunite all the patrellis. I knew their mom wasn't bad.

Didn't Peter lose all his powers? Maybe I missed it if he got them back? Sylar has way too many powers for comfort...he could do SO much damage, especially now that he can shape shift!

[Voodoo_Bryn]

Okay. So Peter.
When he first got his power back, he randomly absorbed... now his power is to absorb and he's got control over that... he only absorbs the power when he uses his power to absorb. Does that make sense? They kind of showed him figuring it out awhile back.

Oh, and alcohol not affecting Claire was lame... you don't get drunk because your liver takes damage... you get drunk because of the effect alcohol has on your brain.

But I'm a massive Claire hater.

Oooh..I must have missed that somehow...

and yeah...not a fan of Claire either...but you know what...she can't die!!! They've pretty much established that nothing can kill her so looks like we're stuck with her for the long haul :blink:

so can she die the same way sylar can??

I never picked up the whole thing where you can kill him by hitting some spot with a knife or bullet.

um :rolleyes:

[nikkiARNGwife]

Well, I think I remember way back when she like got stabbed in the head with something and she was dead on the autopsy table...and as soon as they pulled out the glass she woke up...so I guess that's when they maybe established that? It's all so dang confusing lol.

[Jennilyn]

Yeah, she fell on a stick because a guy tried to rape her or something then he ran away because he thought he killed her. He looked at her kind of suspiciously the next day when she came to school.

I know! so confusing lol

still entertaining :)

[switchwiz]

I'm the same, Nikki, I watch waaayyyy too much TV.....but I must have missed how Peter figured out how to use his power, that just touching doesn't transfer the power, but that Peter has to think about absorbing the power to get it.

And I guess Sylar teamed up with yucko dude because this guy has a line on all the heros, and has an army in place to round'em all up, then all Sylar has to do is help himself to their powers. He'll be like a kid in a candy store!!

[crystalbella77]

Oh I watch too much TV too! lol!

I am just not sure about Heroes anymore, but I keep watching it afraid that I will miss the one episode that finally gets better..... :( I think it's just getting annoying...

I totally missed the Peter figuring out how to control his power too I guess. I am just disappointed that Sylar is going to be like all bad. I thought he would be the only one that could totally fight the bad guys....

[EvaK]

I REALLY liked this week's episode. I usually DVR it and then watch it the following morning when no kiddies are around to distract me.

I do get a little confused sometimes, but not any more than I do from watching Lost (which I think is more confusing). I wish Hiro would get all of his powers back and that they would show him more often. He is my fav.

I agree that Claire looked much better without so much makeup. She looked young and fresh -- and for some reason she looked thinner. Not sure if she has lost weight or if she is losing some of her "baby fat" on her face. She is such a pretty girl.

I think it has alot to do with how fast she can metabolize, as well. It's not just about healing, but about how quickly her body can react to what effects it.

And I'm with everyone - it's nice to see her looking her age now, the new haircut is cute (finally covered up the bad wig line), and w/o so much makeup, and without the constant whining.
