maybe Maya and Monica don't have anything to do with this chapter, maybe they were just filler and figure more into chapter 3.  Or they could be the 2 heroes who fall!

But Monica's comic book form is on a billboard in the future.

But do you think Maya's brother has some sort of healing capability and might surprise Sylar in the future?

It could be possible that they figure into chapter 3, but if that was the plan all along, then how did they ever think they could resolve everything else that has happened this season by next week?  And if they were filler, then just add that to everything else this season that was filler, including Hiro's 8 week journey in feudal Japan that was so mind-numbingly boring I would actually change the channel.

If next week's "finale" sucks, then chapter 3's ratings are going to fall even lower, if there even is one.

Well when Alejandro was last seen, there was no indication Sylar did anything to him other than stab him, so anything could happen.  

But then again the way things have gone this season, like Candice actually being killed when they could have used her assumed death as a plot twist or something, but instead they killed her because they couldn't get Missy Peregrym who was her original season 1 actress, they killed her off instead.  Candice is the kind of character than any actor/actress could play because of her power and killing her off completely was just in poor taste and planning.

oh heroes writting has always been terrible, no need for a strike for that. The stories coming together works for a while, but if season 1 finale is any indication I wouldn't get my hopes up for some awesome finale next week, as I said at the beggining of the thread, I watch it for the pretty people.

Argh, just watched last Monday's episode.... DETAILS! People use details!

Hiro: Adam kill my father and for that he must pay.

WHAT HE SHOULD HAVE SAID:

Hiro: Adam killed my father and is trying to kill the world, I've seen it

DETAILS!

If Hiro fails, he can just go back in time and fight him again.  There'll be two of them that time.  Then, if he fails again, those two can go back in time and try again.  Then there'll be four.  Yeah.  That's what should happen.  Millions of Hiros versus Peter and Adam.

YEAH, let's wittle down the cast size by taking away the characters who had started to get interesting. Maybe HRG man's return would have had more impact if it hadn't happened over the course of two episodes.

Now I'm waiting for Matt to lock Sylar into his own mind where he can freely kill all the imaginary people he wants and pretend to take their powers for as long as he lives.

I'm also kinda curious how Maya is gonna play into all of this. If she never learns to focus her power into one individual she will never be of any use unless they send her in on solo missions.

Wow, that wasn't nearly as disappointing as I thought it would be, but it still wasn't mind-blowing.
So who are the two that died?  We have no proof yet that Niki, Nathan, or Adam is actually dead.  We just know that they are on fire, shot, and buried alive, respectively.
If Volume Three doesn't come till next fall, I don't think I'll be watching.  There's never enough payoff at the end.

Its a comic, I thought it was already stablished no one really dies in a comic, except DL because people didn't like him, oh and Alejandro.

Oh, I could've sworn I was watching Heroes on a TV and not reading it in a book.  But I guess I could be mistaken.

Here's an interesting idea... Let's say Matt did lock Sylar in his own mind and Sylar did go around killing everyone.  Ideally, Sylar "looks into" their brain to see how they work (the whole eating brain thing aside)... Would he still be able to obtain the powers of others if he's able to do it in his own mind?  Couldn't he then kill Imaginary Matt, take his powers, then figure out something's not right and get out?

Dude, screw the writer's strike... I'll go write Heroes episodes for free.

Horrible... where was the sense of urgency when Sylar got away with the "Heal Anything Blood"

With locks that on the door... and the foreknown knowledge that the virus is released that day... can you say put 2 and 2 together??  At least go in with him!!

Power of persuasion are useless on this show... people are bloody idiots to begin with.

They're also inconsistent in personality and motives.

The writing for volume 2 has been jumpy and jerky and didn't mesh well enough. It seems to me like they are forcing a cast refresh to keep interest going, when instead they can develop some of the secondary characters further like DL or Niki beyond their struggle to have a normal life. I'm not too interested in Monica or Elle coz too much is going on all at once.

Peter should also have DL's power to phase through walls, why not do that rather than rip the door off? I hate to admit it but House and Stargate Atlantis is having much better seasons.

So do the British Audiences really like House, or are they put off by Hugh Laurie doing a (flawless) American accent?

House has been having an EXCELLENT season, bested only by DEXTER on Showtime. If you don't watch one or the other, I suggest you get to downloading

I have only watched 20 minutes of house, never cared much for it, but Dexter on the other hand is an AMAZING show.

Most people i know think House is good at a glance, but get sucked into it and then reckon its one of the better shows on TV. Some reckon its a funny version of Scrubs but the humour types are different (dark humour and slapstick) and can't be compared. His american accent is so flawless it's very easy to not remember how he speaks normally.

So nobody watches stargate then? lol

Does Adam need to eat?  Or could he eat his own arm over and over?  Wouldn't there be some energy loss?

HA!  That's hilarious.  I'm sure the writers aren't that concerned about science

I loved House until I realized every single episode is exactly the same thing. Also witty remarks and sarcasm are cute but get old fast.

And it would be great if Heroes' writers cared about science or just didn't care at all. The really terrible thing is that the half-care, and so their pseudo-scientific babble is cringe worthy.

If you enjoyed the 1st season of House, and also watched the second, then you would agree that Season 3 is a close second to season 1. The character development and relationships are just well written and very consistent, and the humorhas taken a step forward this season as drama was the focus last season.

But nothing will match Dexter this year especially if the season finale is of the same quality as the rest of the season so far.
I'm just wondering what they are going to do for a 3rd season since there were only 2 books written that the show is based off of.

and to keep this related to heroes, the writers strike killed what could have been an interesting season by forcing them to cut the season in half and force the storyline ahead. Hopefully this is just a midseason break and they will finish the season strong in the spring after (if) the writers strike is over.

Also Dexter and Weeds might get retooled (read: neutered) for CBS to compensate for programming gaps due to the strike

Because you can explain scientifically why people can fly, stop time, go back to time, and recover from a bullet through the brain.
