Thanks for recapping the preview for me!

I also get a little bored with Nikki. Maybe, if she can merge her personalities, she will just be this super strong hero that is a fierce fighter, I don't know. But if she's possessed with a spirit, well, that's not really a power...

Yes! That was my logic, too. It would have been one thing if she were a Jekyll/Hyde thing, and I likely would be interested in that, but as is, she's a subplot that I hope gets resolved soon. I know they plan on killing off someone on sweeps, maybe she'll be the victim? If not her, most guesses point to Simone (I hope not, I think she has potential as a character).

Killing off someone? Hmm. I hope it's Matt's wife. I wouldn't mind if it was Simone though, as she seems little more than a love interest, er, love triangle interest. I haven't gotten much out of her character besides that.

ATTENTION all Heroes fans! (Namely Slave2moonlight! :wink: )

Jayma Mays is currently on Ugly Betty as America Ferrerra's romantic rival. And get this- her name is Charlie!
Tie-in? Probably not. But interesting nonetheless.

Oh, wow! Did they already show that? I don't even know what channel that is on! Is she a regular, or was it one episode?

She showed up in last week's episode at the very end (as a cliffhanger). She was around the whole time tonight and it looks as though she'll either be a new regular cast member or at least a re-curring guest cast member for a few episodes, depending on where they take her character (perhaps she'll get a diner job in Texas...?).

The show airs Thursdays right before Grey's Anatomy on ABC. Channel 13 and at 7pm for me.

Aw, sounds like it may be during one of the two Thursday night shows I never miss, Smallville and Supernatural! I will have to check and see if I can find a way to catch it. Maybe they have episodes online or something.

AWESOME. JUST AWESOME.

S2M, the hot women live!! Claire didn't die, Simone will be back next week, and Missy Peregrym (sp?) of Stick It! fame is a new cast member!

I am incredibly obsessed with this show.

I have so many questions!
Is Simone a hero?
Was Bennet completely honest?
What is Claire going to do?
What's going to happen to Ted and Matt?
Who was the guy at the desk in Bennet's flashback?
How is the invisible guy involved? How did he survive?
What does Mr. Nakamura have to do with it all?

AH! I feel like I'm going to explode! :D

I CONCUR. I was on the edge of my seat this whole episode. It was so sweet, too, the last scene with Claire and her dad. I also look forward to more from Thompson (Mr. Bennett's "boss") and the Haitian.

I hope if Simone's in it, she legit in it, and not some crazy dream or something. I always did think she had potential, but what a way to go.

Well, if you saw the preview for next week, you would have seen Simone standing in Isaac's apartment, covered in blood, shouting "You want to shoot me again?"

That makes me think she's actually back.

I did see the preview for next week. Anything's possible, I've noticed, and in "Heroes", nothing can be ruled out.

EDIT Actually, my friend and I came up with another theory as to a possible explanation...highlight for our wild speculation

An advertisement for next week read something like "a new hero reveals themself in an ellusive new way", which we figure could mean that the new hero is perhaps a shapeshifter...something to wildly throw around there...

Ha, I know how you feel, numba1. As for the hot women, frankly, I was hoping that was the last we'd see of Simone. I don't really like her. She doesn't seem to have much "character" in her character, and I was glad she was the one to die (or so we thought?). Glad Claire didn't die, but I don't expect her to anytime in the near future. Haven't seen Stick It, so I don't know the lady in question, but it IS on my DVD wish list, ha.

It seems likely that we would see some nightmares involving Simone in future episodes. Anyways, anyone notice Stan Lee driving the bus in the episode before last?

That was so cool and surprising to see little Hiro and his dad in the flashback last time!

After the episode, I was pretty convinced that Claire's dad was trying to be a good person, but now that I have thought about it, it could be turned around on us in so many ways. Yeah, I definitely want to see how Doctor Who survived getting shot so much on the bridge, ha.

And anyone know when new episodes of Smallville will be back?

Ok, after three weeks of being out of the loop, due to school, I finally caught up and watched the last 3 episodes online last night.

WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! This show kicks major ass!! It really is a dream come true for anyone who has ever been a fan of any comic book character (I think specifically X-Men)

Yes, I caught Stan "The Man" Lee driving the bus!! I thought it was great. I also leave seeing all his cameos in the Marvel Movies.

The last episode, The Company Man, was fantastic! Very emotional and it finally gave us some insight into HRG background and life in the past. Although a question arises... Im sure theres an answer and I think Linderman is probably the key, but what were Hiro and his father doing at baby Claires? Also, was it Hiro that stopped time and the bullet, or could it perhaps have been Ando? DUN DUN DUN!!!!!

Im pretty sure Simone will live. [Remember Peters dream, she was there with Isaac]

I hope this show eventually, but not any time soon, does get to the point where they do have teams of good guy v.s. bad guys cause that would be pretty sweet. But if tit doesnt happen, I'll be just as happy cause I'm loving the story between all the characters, it's great.

I cant wait for season 1 on DVD!!!

I'm loving it, but it needs to have a big, ultimate pay-off in the end, which to me means a fully realized superhero situation, even to the point of costumes or cool outfits, though they can just be majorly downplayed "Uniforms" like the X-Men wear in the movies. I mean, since they've got flying characters, they gotta eventually have real costumes, in my opinion, ha.

And, is that new character seen from behind in the end of the preview Sean Connery? Ha, it's going to be some sort of surprise like that, and it looked like him to me.

Hmm, I didn't think it was Sean. But who knows? Whoever the actor is, the character is Linderman. We finally get to know how he connects to all of these people!

Whoa, are you guys still watching? I saw Episode 18 ("Parasite") this week, and man, has it got some crazy cliffhangers! Hiro has his sword and teleports to the future to see NYC nuked, Nathan Petrelli gets a deal from Linderman, Claire runs from the Haitian only to meet up with him again at Peter's apartment where she finds out he is working for her grandmother, and Peter runs into Sylar and the episode ends with Sylar getting ready to open his head!

I can't believe we have to wait until the end of April for the next all-new episode. This is madness. :cry:

Well, we all know Peter survives. Thats probably how he gets the scar that Hiro from the future mentioned. And I'm still not too sure about Simones death. It was all just so abrupt. That, and we see her in Peters dream, so who knows.
