Finally got to watch last week's episode of Heroes. Just in time for this week's episode. Was watching it on Tuesday when my Internets was shut off. But I'm all good now.

The episode was definitely an improvement over the previous couple of episodes.

My mentoring thing ran late today.

I shall have to watch Heroes online unless there is a replay soon.

Gee, I don't want to open this box! This is why I hate Peter Petrelli. The guy never had a spine. Oh, but he has love, that's why he was able to save the day last season. What ever.

Hey! I'm a cheerleader! I didn't trust my dad last season, but he proved to be the best. So this season, I'm not going to listen to him at all! Cause if I didn't do that, we'd have no dramatic tension.

Hi, I'm Niki. I'm going to repeat all the stupid mistakes I made last season!

Next there's Maya and whatever the hell her brother is named. Let's repeat the same scene for them three weeks in a row. It's not important to actually advance their storyline at all.

Hiro and H.R.G. are the only two characters that deserve to be watched.

So Heroes is a huge geek television show. Why then no geek ads, but lots of ads for baby stuff?

It's gonna be irritating to have to watch commercials next week though.

Okay, definitely a much better episode this week.

But… wasn't it just a few days ago in show time that D.L. was trying to get away from Nicki? And before that wasn't she trying to get away from him? And now he wants her out of prison? Wait, I forgot, did she want to go to prison or not? I seem to remember her turning herself in so she couldn't hurt her kid. But now she's gonna do whatever it takes to get fixed so she can get out.

I liked everything else. But those two need a coherent plot-line.

Heroes

Finally finished watching the Tivo-ed Heroes marathon, the first six episodes.

I have to say I don't quite get it. Don't get me wrong. I'm a sucker for super-powers. So I'll probably watch the show some more. But man is the plotting and acting in this show bad. I'll watch it just to see the super-powers revealed. Kind of like back in the day when I watched Incredible Hulk mostly for the twice-an-episode transformations into the hulk.

Though I have to say I really like the way story-arc television has been getting more popular the last few years. Did it start with 24? There have been a lot of episodic television shows that had story-arcs as background, but it seems like since 24 the idea of a season or multi-season long story told in pieces has been gaining in popularity: 24, Dead Zone, Battlestar Galactica, Lost, Heroes. I'm sure there's one or two others as well. Some of these have a few disconnected episodes thrown in (Dead Zone, BSG).
