Save the Cheerleader, Save the World

Who is watching "Heros"?

I'm just getting a few friends to watch it, so there aren't many people to discuss what is happening on the show. Very cool new series that I hope plays out a while. The Lost meets X-Men description does a great job of describing it.

My biggest question is... Is Silar (sp) the cheerleader's dad, or is that just what the writers want us to believe right now?

I just read an article in TV Guide about the show. Really irritated me that it told me something I didn't know. It stated it 'matter of fact" like. I don't think it is a known fact in the show yet. I will say that I know more about Peter's ability to fly than I wanted to.

Let me end this thread lead off with... Next week's preview looks so cool.

Anyone watching?

Brad!

It is serialized show, so you need to try to watch it from the beginning...

I'll have to look to see which network it is. It is one of the "major" US networks. They show the current week's episode online, so everyone should be able to get to them that have a broadband account.

I am looking forward to see this show, once I saw a trailer and I liked it, BTW I saw a short chinese girl in that, she is not shown in the list of actors on Imdb (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0813715/), isnt she in the show ?

Where are these episodes available ?

Becuase Peter has flown, but only when he was with brother.
And he did that thing he did last episode, when he was with Issac.

Rogue saps power. Peter has the ability to mimic other people's powers. That is what you saw with the painting and that is what you saw with the flying. I believe that is also why Future Hiro contacted him -- because by being near him, he can take on the ability to manipulate space/time and thus be able to interact with Hiro outside of normal time ;) (I liked the scar comment when they talked :) )

One of my questions is in regard to Hiro's friend - does he have any powers? He seems to find people quite easily... ?
Brad Jones at 2007-11-9 13:17:52 >
# 19 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
That makes a lot of sense why he contacted Peter and nobody else.

Krishnaa:
I'm more curious to see who the bad guys are and why they capture our 'Heroes'. I bet Sylar is trying to steal everybodies powers. So far we only know of the two.

The Story with Cheerleader is going to be great though. Her foster-father, if he isn't the really her father, is the bad guy.

# 20 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
I'll have to admit that I didn't think much of it the first show, so I prolly switched it off. After watching the webcasts, I watched a few shows.

# 22 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
I think that Claire's father is not a bad guy. He did not do any harm to anyone yet, and he has had lotta chances, and every time he let hero go. He did not even harm the ****er who was trying to rape his step-daughter (even if he does not want good for her, I think that he would take a chance and do something bad to someone who deserves bad). I think that the only person, who Claire's father and/or his companions killed, is professor. Professor was co-operating in some way with Sylar, and Sylar for sure is a bada**. I cannot guess yet why Sylar kills, but I bet that it is not to gain all forces. Rather to get free of his one, and live like normal man. And Peter is probably someone like Captain Planet, I wouldnt like to know what will happen whe he will come close to 5 heros.

Or maybe Sylar wants to make Earth clean of all these freaks, thats why he searches for them, destroys their brains, and, in the grande finale, he takes them all to N.Y. and fries with nuclear blast. Really, interesting.

i wonder what micah's power will be, beside being a the kid genius..Isn't that enough? He's like 9, imagine what will be his IQ when he turns 16. Or maybe he will become more stupid, because he will become interested with girls?

Anyway, I think that for now I like Hiro most, and I do not like lizard-man (Mohinder, you know), because he is a bit boring as for now.

Remeber that we still do not know what is the balance for superabilities of superheroes (Except maybe Nikki's, which I doubt that she enjoys using). Maybe every travel in time causes Hiro suffer from heavy hangover next day, or gets his a** into troulble with muggers ;) That would balance his power a bit and would make him think twice before he uses it. he has a mother with an alternate personality and a father who walks walls, just like kitty in X-men.

They've kind of been indicating limits to his power. When future Hiro talked to Peter he commented that he had to be careful about messing up the space time continum. Plus, if you simply hit him, he is out cold and can't use his powers ;) :D

# 36 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
Something just crossed my mind : What do you think 'Save the Cheerleader, Save the world' is about?

All we know about the cheerleader is that she can regenerate. Why is she so important?

Personally I think that Sylar is trying to find out scientifically how each of their powers work. To steal them. I'm pretty sure that they just need to keep the cheerleader away from Sylar.

# 37 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
is'nt sylar and claire's dad one and the same? or maybe sylar was claire's dad assistant ?

i wonder how they would kill the cheerleader, remember the scene in the morgue where she was already on the autopsy table, she still lived after the stick in heard was removed.

i think nikki and the policeman were already recruited by sylar, withouth them knowing of course, remember the sort of S symbol on nikki's back?

so ok am just going to wait for the next eps... to much assumption already :D

But I do not think that 'S' symbol means 'Sylar', I spotted this symbol also in some more places. One of them is when lizard-man is viewing professor's laptop, symbol appears in horizontal position as a bit darker pattern in all these matrix-style numbers scrolling through the screen.

"Heroes" ... Paul Sylar (2 episodes, 2006)
- Six Months Ago (2006) TV Episode ... Paul Sylar

I'll speculate that the Hiro story line is going to show why it isn't good for him to just go back in time and change things. There has to be a "cost" or a risk that makes it something he should only do in a very limited fashion.

This past episode was pretty good. The question I have is -- did they save the cheerleader that they needed to? Also, Peter was next to Silar for a bit - that means he should be able to do whatever Silar does...?

# 56 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
Last night's episode did a good job filling in a lot of holes in the background stories. It makes total sense why Peter's brother doesn't want to fly, the cheerleader's dad's motives are more defined (although there are lots of questions around him), we know who Sylar is and what he is doing now, and we get a little bit of a background on Jessica/Nikki's character. We also got what we speculated -- information on why Hiro won't just blink around time and try to fix things. All-in-all a pretty good episode.

It seems that Micah and Sylar have very similar powers. It will be interesting t osee if it comes down to Micah to fix things with Sylar... :D

I have a lot of questions about Niki though. Her power just seems odd, only being able to channel her sister. I hope they clear it up a bit like they did with Hiro.

I still am curious about Claire's dad a lot though. It showed him with 'The cleaner' even before he went to see Mohinders' father. So he must have already knew about the "heroes".

Next week will be good.

My theory is that ultimately what Claire's "dad" is doing is for the greater good and the Cleaner knows this.

Secondarily, we don't really know who Claire's dad is working for -- but we know he is reporting to someone. As such, the Cleaner could be working for this boss person and be there to keep Claire's dad "in check". The real twist would be that the Cleaner works for Linderman (sp)....

The bigger question is -- why a paper factory for a cover plant? What is that tie?

Brad!This may be correct. Maybe Linderman is their boss and it may not be a coincidence that almost all of them have connections to Linderman.

What I don't understand is why the Cleaner wants Claire to retain her memories. And what are the Cleaner's powers? I understand that he can wipe out memories but can he also block other's power? Or will the others lose their abilities temporarily if they get close to him?

It was NCC-1701... familiar? It's commonly known as the Federation starship USS Enterprise :D

About that phrase, I think he is refering to one's old self. He must be a new man in order to control his powers. At least that's what I think :D

# 68 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
I think Peter is much more powerful than Sylar. He doesn't need to kill in order to get other powers, he just needs to be close to them. And best of all, he already has the cheerleader's power. This can be quite useful when facing Sylar.

Brad!What do you mean by random killings? Did you mean Sylar's killings? Or the shooting of Peter's girl? (I forgot her name :D )

Anyway, Peter's powers are getting really powerful. I doubt that it is Peter that will explode.

Well Peter did have a premonition that he is the one exploding. This week episode "The Unexpected" was really great.. I wonder if Mohinder already noticed that it was Sylar he is with.. Sylar is really cunning..

I think Sylar's not cunning enough though, taking a power which he has trouble controlling.

I think Sylar's not cunning enough though, taking a power which he has trouble controlling.

Sylar's weakness seems to be his greed to take powers. Some powers, however, have to be adjusted to. I think it is one thing to undersand how a power works, it is another to be able to live with it. He was able to do the 'melting' completely (whereas the original guy wasn't). I think with things like 'super hearing' however, it isn't just about how it works, but learning to live with everything being loud. That didn't seem to be a type of power that could be 'turned off'

I don't recall...
Sylar rips people's heads open to see 'how their power works'. Right? If that is the case, then how does he tinker inside of his own head to make them work? Did they show that in an earlier episode?

What do you mean by random killings? Did you mean Sylar's killings? Or the shooting of Peter's girl? (I forgot her name )

Both. Although I guess I shouldn't say "always".

As to Peter blowing up -
Is Peter able to get into other people's heads? I thought in one case in an earlier episode, he was seeing something from someone else's (Sylar's?) perspective. If that is the case, then while he may have thought it was him, he could have been seeing the explosion through someone else's view....
(At least this is my theory and I'm sticking with it.... for now ;) )

I think that he just needs to know how things work in order to copy it. Just like the watch he was trying to fix for a long time, once he knew how the clock ticks he has no trouble fixing it then. So if he just know how the others have their power (may have to do with their DNA structure or chromosome mutations) then he can copy it (i.e. change his DNA or chromosomes to match theirs). Anyway that's what I just thought. :)

(At least this is my theory and I'm sticking with it.... for now ;) )Exactly what I was trying to say. The vision may be that of the "radioactive" guy trying to nuke the cheerleader's dad. Or blowing himself as a sort of a last resort to prevent them from capturing him again.

Now I am just wondering why Peter has two types of power, absorption and some kind of premonition. Any thoughts about this? Maybe he absorbed this power from another person too?

I'm in complete agreement, not only that Peter has come into contact with Sylar which means peter can now use all of the powers that Sylar has. Peter will be able to fight his way out of this battle for sure. He can regenerate so there is no problem there and he also has other powers to help him like telekinesis and Ted's nuclear ability.

Not to mention Claude, he is invisible remeber, how do we know that he isn't in the room with Peter, Sylar and Mohinder? He could be lurking in the shadows :).

I'm really looking forward to the next episode!

# 81 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
Remember - Claire was killed once... Same could happen to Peter.

Also - As far as someone else being in the room... that would be a bit lame since Silar has super hearing. While being invisible is nice, it doesn't make one silent. Thus, Silar should/could have heard them. He should/could know who is around by hearing their hearts beat.... :)
Brad Jones at 2007-11-9 14:21:55 >
# 82 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
If you think about it could still be possible, don't forget that Claude did in fact work for the 'Company' along with Mr. Bennet so who knows what he has learnt (training wise).

As for the super hearing, while this is still true, Sylar may have been preoccupied with Mohinder to even realise that someone was in the room and Sylar has not learnt how to control that ability yet, as far as we know (the tune fork implies this fact), and I am not sure that even Sylar can pin point 1 heart beat out of two others, plus the screaming that we heard from Peter. Dont forget that Sylar is also busy cutting into Peters head whilst pinning Mohinder to the ceiling, I dont think he will be able to concentrate, or even think of, listening for intruders. As for an explanation as to how Claude could possibly get into the room, he may have entered with Peter.

Logically, something has to happen to save Peter (he is a main character after all), whether it be Peter fights back or someone stops Sylar. If Sylar removes Peters brain then there is no way that Peter can recover from this since the Heroes need their brains to use their abilities, hence the IV (Intravenous) chemical working on Sylar.

I have yet to watch this show. I heard it was worth checking out, but I'm always watching something else at the same time.

I saw the preview for the "last 9 chapters" (don't quote the number) and the way it sounded, it sounds as if the show is coming to an end. Each week there is a new chapter? A new "person" to save each chapter? I'm sure with all the buzz about this show, the commerical only means the season is coming to an end, but I thought I still ask around.

Last 9 chapters == season finale || Last 9 chapters == series finale ?

# 94 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
Last 9 chapters == series finale

That is how it looks. If you follow the story line, there should be a definitive end to the story...

The "universe" will continue, so there could be another "series" with the same premise...
TheCPUWizard at 2007-11-9 14:35:11 >
# 95 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
The preview did say "Last 5 chapter". It could be that they wrap up this story line with 23 episodes -- which is a standard season. I could, however, see then doing a 'second book' that has 23 chapters as well with a new story line with the same characters. Kind of like the series 24 where each season is a day. In this series each season could be a book with chapters :). I'm speculating, but the show seems to behighly rated so I don't see it ending after just one season.

# 101 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
The season was pretty good.
*Spoiler if you haven't seen the episode *

Though I predict all the heroes will survive.
We already knew Peter will survive.
I think Nathan would have survived if he dropped Peter. and continued flying.

Though at this Peter seems so powerful, especailly since he just came in contact with our Las Vegas folk. Now probably has the powers of Mika, DL, and Nikki. I think that was some of Nikki's strength he was showing punching Silar.

The point of this is Peter sould have be able to do something else.
Like fly away himself, Stop time and move...
But then again maybe they will use this as some charater development for Peter while he learns to control things better...

I mean if he survives the bomb then, like it showed for the future Peter. He still hasn't to learn control himself more.

I think those are questions and more will be anwsered next season.

# 102 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
* Spoilers --- beware *

Yeah I think Peter would become a lot more powerful in season 2. They also showed some hints of a new nemesis in season 2 (although Sylar is still alive) like the person which Molly (a girl who can locate anyone in the world) can't locate since she is scared of him/her and said that this person can also see Molly if she tries to scry him. Molly also stated that this person is much scarier than Sylar.

At the last part of the show, I thought that a UFO had blocked the sun : D which I think would have made things bad. Thankfully it was ust a solar eclipse and is somehow related to the emergence of peoples abilities (I think).

Overall, it was a nice show and I am looking forward for season 2.

# 103 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
** spoilers beware**
(Note that I typed white on white, so highlighting post will show text...)

I didn't think the finale was as good as it was hyped. After all, they spent the entire season building up to this. Addionally, some of the prior dream scenes were simply misleading and wrong. For example, they showed him blowing up in the daytime, in traffic, outside of his brother's office. It didn't seem like that was any of it.

Even so, the series has been entertaining and season two promises to be interesting. I heard they were shifting back to the original characters (the older people), so we will see what happens there. The Eclipse seemed to be the same one in the shows intro, so maybe they will go through the origin. A lot of comments were dropped about the previous group of 'heros', so we'll see.

As to Peter flying himself and such.... Have we ever seen Peter use two powers at once? Or, is he limited to just one at a time. It seems that he needs limits and that would be one way to do it.

Interesting comment about Nathan. I didn't think about him simply flying away after dropping his brother... Could be. I somewhat doubt it, but still...

Definitely a fun show :)

** More Spoilers **

I beleive he had used two powers at once in his orginal fight with sylar.

As the for the dream sequences that were wrong. Remember future Hiro? Perhaps present-time Hiro did do something to change the way things that 'were suppose to happen'.

Also I'm just going to throw this out there.
When Molly said there is somebody scarier than sylar could she possible mean Peter? After all he absorbs abilities and she had mentioned that whenever she looked for him he looked back.

Oh well these theories and more will be ruined in the next great season of Heroes!

# 105 Re: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World
*** spoilers ***

She ended up locating Peter, so I doubt it was him that was "more scarey". Plus, they painted Peter as a good-hearted guy and he had never indicated seeing her to this point. As such, I'd have to say that theory is wrong.

Why didn't Linderman heal himself? Or better yet, why did ...?... (don't know his name) 's hand come out messy? If he had rematerialized his hand in a way that would get icky and would kill, then I would image his hand would have been stuck in the head or would have come out relatilvely clean. That seemed plausable and cool (so to speak), but when analyzed left a few questions for me.

I also think there are a few people that would have made sure Silar was dead rather than leaving it open ended -- like the cheerleader and her dad.

Interesting show, but I'm finding you can't look too deep or it starts to unravel...

When you use 22 episodes to build to a conclusion, you have to have a very strong conclusion. I agree that what they did was very lame based on the build-up they provided.

But then again, I don't know that they could have delivered a finale to fit the build-up. :). But I agree that they could have done better though.

It has been a less than impressive season...

The writers promised shorter overall story lines and more surprises. I'm not seeing it. This seasson seems like a lot of dull story lines that are filling time until a real story can begin.

Up to this point, they could have spent each week focused on an individual character and made it more interesting. I read a review that pretty much bashed each story line and the character development. The more I see this season, the more I think I should quit watching and simply wait to get the DVD set at the end of the season. That might be less painful.

But unfortunately season 1 hooked me, so I'll keep watching.....
for a while.
