Hayden Panettiere is the greatest actress in the entire history of acting. Ever.

I didn't watch last night's episode yet, but something tells me that's sarcastic and revolves around her running around with her chest cut wide open.
Granted, Claire Bennet is a character dividing the fans. Some like her, others hate her. I hated her in the pilot, liked her in the second episode, hated her in the third, so who knows how I'll feel when I catch this week's rerun.
I will say this: Masi Oka IS the greatest actor in the entire history of acting. Ever.
SUPER HIRO!!!
BTW, Congrats "Heroes" on being the first new show of the season to get signed for a full season. Here's hoping for a second.
EDIT: Someone just told me that Claire did something that redeemed her in his eyes last night. So I guess, she is the greatest actress in the history of acting...  I'm so confused. Curse my inability to watch some shows until Friday!

No, I'm not being sarcastic. Obsessive and hyperbolic perhaps, but not sarcastic.

Hiro is indeed awesome (especially at the end of the most recent episode!!!). We've only got one TV when I visit my mom and she automatically lost interest when she saw the cheerleader with a bifurcated torso. I missed the first episode but I've caught every one of them since then.

You're on the internet, you could look it up  . Bifurcated means split apart, like the end of a snake's tongue for example.

if i hear "Ya-Ta!" again, i think i am going to go insane.
is the show really that good? With one of the main character being a likeable cheerleader (un-realistic oxymoron) and the aforementioned overused catch phrase, the show is starting to annoy me already.
PRE-EDIT Jeph Loeb more or less made the show so it can't be ALL bad, at least i hope. Please don't let me down Jeph....

I like Ali Larter, but I don't really like her character on the show.
Schizophrenia is not a super power, it's a very serious disease.

Actually Mr. Hyde is also a Marvel comics villain who sided with the Masters of Evil if I remember correctly.
Getting back to the show (or at least an actor), Masi Oka also happens to work for ILM.

Dude, that car scene is right out of season four of "Smallville"... and at least Clark is a decent human being and did the right thing.
Speaking of which, as the "Heroes" come together, so does the Justice League.
And Jeph Loeb worked on both... Paradox?
If two Hiros were to touch... what would happen? Would they become jello or would they exchange information like on "The Dead Zone"?

That lady does NOT have schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is when you see and hear things that aren't there. What she has would most closely resemble Disassociative Disorder, formly known as Multiple Personality Disorder. There is heavy debate among experts, however, if this is even a real disorder.

Actually that would be Psychosis Jeebus. Schiziophrenia is rapid mood swings. MPDS (Multiple Personality Disassociative Syndrom) is the apt description of her situation, so maybe her other personality is the one with super powers (as clearly evidenced by threatening to impale that shmuck's skull with her high heel)?

OFF TOPIC:
I totally forgot she was playing Claire Redfield in the new "Resident Evil" movie. She looks like Sarah Conner!

Update on heroes (spoilers)
In case you didnt see the last one, the girl with the hypnosis power and short hair was offed this season. Nurse Patrelli is the source for the nuclear explosion, and claire's father is basically leech from Marvel comics. In addition, he may or may not be a good guy, but he's definatly a dick. The bad kind too.
Its a good show.

About Nathan, yeah about 40 seconds into that "dream sequence" I knew he was going to be the guy. Which means...oh god, "Radiation Man" *whince* is still around.
As for Mr. Horn-rims, I think I missed any sort of leeching. When did it happen again?

I think he's referring to when the cop couldn't read anyone's minds while they were questioning Claire. I'm also pretty sure it was the Haitian blocking his ability.

That's what I was thinking. The Haitian has that mind blanking ability. I loved it from a powers interaction point of view, when the cop was trying to read Nathan's mind and they basically had feedback from each other.

Horn-rim is always present when characters are unable to take advantage of their powers. Its presumably why the short haired girl was unable to hypnotise him in the 6 months before episode, and why Syler was unable to escape until he wasnt present.
Well, thats my theory.
I also suscribe to the theory that most characters get one power. Time and space counts as one power for this occurence, as it's still movement. Its the main reason I dont believe the mind eraser to have multiple abilities.

Actually I was under the impression Studio 60 got axed, or was running the risk of axing. I'm glad to hear otherwise, but that show is always a toss up with Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations for me.

I'm so glad Heroes is back! It's nice to have a reason to cheer on Mondays for a change.
