Why is Heroes so awesome? Warning-Spoilers!

[AllyOops!]

Last night was so unbelievably awesome!! I'm so bummed that I have to wait for Fall to get a brand-new Heroes fix. I saw NBC advertising the DVD set for pre-order. I wonder when it will be released- does anybody here know? I can't wait to purchase it.

I also watched the marathon on Sci-Fi all day Saturday. I watched it in the morning. I also watched it in the afternoon. And at night. I woke up for the very last episode at 6:00 A.M. Addicted much?

Ooh! I mentioned earlier in this Thread that Niki was kind of an "eh" character for me. Last night changed all of that. Niki is a total bad-ass that I hope to see more of!

This occurred to me, too. Then I remembered I wasn't watching Highlander.

I also did a recap/ observation on my blog http://www.fejsez.com A lot of it was put here, but I just rattled away there.

Heather and I talked about the "Why didn't Peter fly?" question. She thinks that at that point, he had completely lost control of his powers, trying to focus on not exploding. I'll buy that.

As far as "the dead stay dead" rule, I'm wondering who you consider dead. Other than the non-super Thompson (Eric Roberts), I think all bets are off. They made it clear that Peter should be able to survive the blast (at least his mother said so to Claire); we never saw Nathan either holding on to or letting go of Peter; Linderman is a healer.

What I really liked about "Volume I" is that it does play like a good comic book arc, or, in TV terms, like a season of Buffy The Vampire Slayer, with one "big bad" per season.

I'm with Heather on why Peter didn't fly.

While things can't come back peachy keen, I do think Peter survived. Also, it seems like the heroes can transfer their power to others by touching them, perhaps Nathan can even heal because Peter was touching him (as I think mp is alluding to). However, Peter's real power is that he's a sponge, so I wonder how that could play off.


Linderman better be dead. You don't get to heal when your brain has been turned into applesauce. That's just my opinion.

I watched Heroes this morning online, since i actually couldnt watch it last night. Okay, it was a great episode.. I loved how they introduced Vol.2 at the end of the show.

I do think Peter is not dead. Nathan probably threw him in the sky away from him.

Of course Sylar is dead, right? Not.

Is anybody as stoked as I am about Heroes: Origins?!?! 6 episodes premiering this Summer..and we'll get to vote for our newest favorite superhero, who will then appear in Heroes come the Fall season.

I AM SO EXCITED!!

I'll get my Heroes fix & my American Idol fix by gettin' to vote. Which reminds me, I need to log off and continue voting for Blake. He needs my love.

I'm surprised, most of the people I've spoken about the episode with outside of here have expressed pretty strong disappointment with it.

[AllyOops!]

Did they have any particular complaints? I'm interested in hearing different thoughts and viewpoints!

Underwhelming, somewhat anticlimactic ending. No real payoff.

Pretty much they just seem to feel it ended on a fizzle.
