Since no one else has started one. Spoiler for those who did TiVo.

The pre-show was actually better than I expected. More fun and some neat background stuff.

When did Mohinder become such a hunk? Some serious weight training going on there. And for equal opportunity, Niki/Tracy in that corset. Mmm.

Too bad William Katt got iced. Would have been a nice twist to have "The Greatest American Hero" as a regular cast member.

Sylar is a PETRELLI??? Angela sure got around. Is everyone going to be related by the end of the series?

Line of the night: "Claire, that's disgusting!" So what DOES he do with the brains?

So, three "immortals" - Claire, Peter and Sylar.

Poor Claire. Teenage angst writ large. "Less than human" indeed.

Hiro may own the company, but who's running it? It certainly isn't him.

All the fingerprints that are likely to exist in an office, and they can pinpoint the one that doesn't belong to an employee within hours? Uh huh.

So which future is correct? Any of them that we've seen? And where's Peter's Irish girlfriend who disappeared into the virus-ridden one?
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

Good question! They certainly disappear somewhere, for all the victims who can't regenerate.

I thought that Hiro had a sister working for the company, whom he had said was more suited to the job than he was. But I guess Sulu didn't change the terms of the will. And while the whole scene with the videotape was entertaining, it also was infuriating. "I told you not to open the safe"? How about explaining why?

The show doesn't want to get bogged down into the quantum physics rules for alternate universes. Some believe that all possible universes exist simultaneously.



I'm still trying to reach the one where the Phone Game exisits. :|

I'm having trouble with the show like I never have before. Mainly with Peter. How dumb IS he?

Slinking around the halls in the beginning when he's got the power to turn invisible.

Knowing he can go back in time to change the past, and picking the moment where he has to KILL (or at least shoot) his brother instead of just telling him why he shouldn't reveal himself.

I feel like there were several more things like that, but I can no longer remember them

On a much more "I'm a geek" note, I'm totally confused about The Wire cast members. I noticed the name "Andre Royo" in the opening credits, and I thought, "Hey, that's Bubbles. Awesome!" and of course I was watching out for him.

Then I saw Marlo, and I just figured I had it wrong, that Andre Royo played Marlo. But now that I'm looking at imdb, I was right. Andre Royo WAS Bubbles. And I missed him. And imdb doesn’t even say who he played. Argh.

Oh well. As my brother said, "Marlo DOES belong in Sector 5"
