that'd be a death sentence. You dont put a new show that has lost 3 million viewers since its premiere on the busiest night of the week. I suppose Thursday at 8 could be alright if you push earl and office back an hour but i have trouble seeing that since NBC loves the supersize episodes.

Anyone pick up Entertainment Weekly this week? There are five different covers of the "Heroes". I picked up the one with Claire and Mr. Bennet. The other ones (I think) are Hiro and Nathan; Peter, Matt, Mohinder; Niki/DL; and Sylar, Linderman. If you get all five (which I would love to, but I could get three cheap movies for that price), they make up a cast picture with an exploding New York City in the background. Pretty cool.

I got Sylar and Linderman.

Sylar and Linderman were my second choice.
Anyway, finally watched the episode. Worst of the season? Hardly. I thought it was very good. The feeling of the season coming to a close is very strong, and I'm excited for the "final two chapters".

I am shocked they killed off so many major characters in one episode. Especially, Linderman I thought they were building more with him. Unless he has the power to heal himself. DL, I am not sure is dead or not. The preview showed him resting next to Molly.

Wow, they're not even trying to hide their blatant ripping off of Lost anymore.
I didn't especially like this episode. Too much happening, and it was terribly put together. Good thing a whole bunch got killed at the end; less characters is what this show needs. If it just focused on the Bennets and the Petrellis I would like it a lot more.

How did it rip off lost? I confused.
I thought it was more a rip off of X3 myself. But it was cool, so I forgive it.

Peter Petrelli and that girl have so much chemistry, it's a shame they made them related.
It was a good episode, the best one for me since the hiatus, though I sitll feel they are rushing things too much lately. I'm glad they got rid of Linderman, he was a lot scarier before we met him and it turned out to just be Malcom McDowell doing an impersonation of John Huston.

I'm trying to watch the last episode online, and I can't get it to work. Every other episode works fine, but the newest one doesn't work at all.

I loved last night's episode
I basically echo Erin from TWoP's reaction to Sylar last night ("What the fuck is HE doing there?"). Sylar is creepy as shit, but damn if I don't yell at my TV everytime The Creepy Freak appears.

Great episode. I don't think I've ever been more excited about a season finale before. Next week can't come soon enough.

Some make-up person needs to shape Sylar's eyebrows. They are thicker than Sandy's from The O.C. They're all I ever notice when he's on screen.
Pretty good episode, I can't wait for the finale next week.
And.. maybe it's just my friend and I, and we were both laughing about it, but did any one else find the scenes between Mohinder and Molly in the last two episodes to be slightly creepy? I know there's nothing to it but kept seeming like Mohinder was hitting on her with all the stares and smiles.

If anyone reads on any spoilerboards and such whether the invisible man will be back next year, I'd like to know. He was one of the best characters and just disappeared - no pun intended. This last episode when the cop turned around and Sylar was gone, it made me wonder if maybe Sylar had killed him and had his power.

I guess they Hana'd him. She was the WiFi girl. She's been in I think three episodes, one of which was the future episode where she said nothing and was killed. She's still out there for them to use, I guess.

Anyone think Linderman might have actually been good and not bad?
- They never show him in the future.
- His goal was never to make Sylar president, which is what happens. Sylar would have screwed up his plan.
How do we know his version of the future wouldn't have turned out to be good?

By that logic, the fellows who flew into the World Trade centre might have actually been good.

Oh bugger you.
I see your point, but my logic still stands. It seems that the powers each person gets kind of matches their personality, and his was healing, and he was trying to heal the world. Seemed ironic to me.
