Heroes - S04E11 - Thanksgiving

Volume Five: Redemption
This week, NBC announced that Heroes was moving to 9pm after the holiday break to make way for Chuck, which, if you've seen the promos for the new season, looks totally awesome.
As always, I look forward to your thougths, opinons, gripes, live-blogging, etc.

man chuck is a good show
Posted by oldmanlogan88 on 11/23/09 at 07:22 PMDamnit, I really liked watching Heroes at 8. Half the time I have to record it when its on at 9 because I can't watch all of it.
Posted by Devastron on 11/23/09 at 07:59 PMEvening lads.
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:00 PMI think he was watching the first cut of BLAIR WITCH.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:02 PMI missed last week's episode... possibly the week before's as well, I can't remember, so if I ask a lot of stupid questions, bare w/ me.
Posted by captbastrd on 11/23/09 at 08:03 PMI would like to watch an entire episode of HRG trying to cook Thanksgiving dinner.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:04 PMI hate the 8 time. It means I have to cut my gym time by 30 minutes.
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:04 PMLock the camera down and se lots of time lapse. It would be great. He would definitely shoot at least one appliance or can of yams.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:04 PMI'm sure that HRG could call on someone to flash cook his frozen turkey.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:06 PMHRG: pimp/lover of yams.
Posted by captbastrd on 11/23/09 at 08:06 PMMama Petrelli might be the worst mother ever.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:08 PMThe ol' "that wasn't your brother, it was a shapeshifter" Thanksgiving chat that everyone dreads.
Posted by captbastrd on 11/23/09 at 08:09 PMNever back a badger into a corner.
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:09 PMIts hard to top the 'your brother's really dead and that is secretly the superpowered serial killer disguised as him' for awkward Thanksgiving dinners.
Posted by Devastron on 11/23/09 at 08:10 PM"I've got some heroes up in here, now!" - dude from Biggest Loser
No you don't. Shut up.
Posted by captbastrd on 11/23/09 at 08:12 PMThis is going to be an awesomely awkward dinner.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:13 PMThat face Claire just made is the same one that I make when people act like that around dogs.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:14 PMThere is no better revenge against the ex than showing up with a younger and hotter replacement.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:15 PMMR. MUGGLES!
Posted by greendart32 on 11/23/09 at 08:15 PMConsidering how little life the show has left in it, can we just get 'Hiro-as-Trunks-from-DBZ' w/ the sword and badassness for the rest of the series?
Posted by captbastrd on 11/23/09 at 08:16 PMI agree captbastard, I want future hiro. I was watching season 1 with my friend the other day and I realized how much I want future hiro
Posted by greendart32 on 11/23/09 at 08:17 PMHave we seen hints of the tattooed lady being ready to revolt against Samuel? It seems like it happened just all of a sudden.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:18 PMI think she mentioned how she doesnt like him bringing in the new people, and she was angry at him using the old guy
Posted by greendart32 on 11/23/09 at 08:19 PM@conor
I kinda figured that from the start; I dunno if it was hinted at or I just assumed it.
Those badly animated talking retrievers are creepy.
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:19 PMShe has kind of talked back to him a couple of times. I guess she was just assuming they'd be bringing Joseph back all this time and now that he isn't back she's suspicious.
And, of course, there is that online web series thing too.
Posted by Devastron on 11/23/09 at 08:20 PMI think tattooed lady's story is mostly in that online thing, Conor.
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:20 PM@zombox: I kind of figured that.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:24 PMA dinner like this one requires multiple bottles of wine.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:25 PMCan we kill doug? man is he annoying
Posted by greendart32 on 11/23/09 at 08:26 PMClaire's considering asking the Hatian to erase her memory of this dinner.
Posted by Devastron on 11/23/09 at 08:26 PM"I am thankful for this big glass of red wine."
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:27 PMI'm considering asking the Haitian to erase season 2 and 3.
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:29 PM
Butterfly Man Thanksgiving.
Posted by AztecLos on 11/23/09 at 08:29 PMYikes!
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:30 PMWasn't his brother supposed to have powers? An empath like Peter or something? I guess it doesn't really matter, he didn't have healing at least.
Posted by Devastron on 11/23/09 at 08:32 PMDear Gap commercial,
Shut the fuck up.
Sincerely,
Every fiber in my being
You know, that was not the most mature thing I've seen Claire do.
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:36 PM@zombox: But it worked!
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:37 PM@conor Go HRG!
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:38 PMAm I showing my old man side?
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:39 PMDid somene say pie?
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:39 PMI hope they consolidate the Sylars tonight. Otherwise, I'm starting to feel like this is a really contrived way to have him in all of the major storylines.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:41 PMEven Sylar likes pie.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:41 PMJust me or is the less Sylar the better? He's no longer interesting to me now that he's the charasmatic sociopath that we've frankly been seeing a lot of lately.
Posted by captbastrd on 11/23/09 at 08:42 PMAll Syler want is some pie. And he likes pie.
Posted by AztecLos on 11/23/09 at 08:42 PMSYLAR REBORN!
Posted by greendart32 on 11/23/09 at 08:43 PM@captbastrd: It's not just you. I agree, the less Sylar the better. That's usually always the case with good villains.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:45 PMBut, like the X-Men writers of yore - they have overdone him. Too much of a good thing is too damn much.
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:46 PM@conor
But even the character has changed to a point that I'm just not into it.
Sometimes I forget that Ray Park is even on this show.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:46 PM@captbastrd: Yeah, he's not nearly as effective as he used to be, mostly becaue they never figured out what to do with him and overused him trying him in too many different scenarios.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:48 PMI find it amusing that Hiro keeps referring to himself as a hero when he's acting really quite selfish and not heroic right now.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:48 PMis sylar using the puppet masters powers?
Posted by greendart32 on 11/23/09 at 08:49 PMI hope Mama Petrelli knows a good plastic surgeon.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 08:50 PMHeroes: Exorcist.
Posted by zombox on 11/23/09 at 08:50 PMugh i hoped we were done with nathan
Posted by greendart32 on 11/23/09 at 08:50 PMIf they live in this crazy, unlocatable place, where does Sprint mail Tattoo girl's bill?
HEY! Gap commercial, what'd I tell you??
Posted by captbastrd on 11/23/09 at 08:52 PMThe evil incarnate bar was a great line. Sylar always gets the best ones.
Posted by Devastron on 11/23/09 at 08:52 PM@Devastron
That's my point, the writers give him those lines all too frequently because he bacame popular but instead of keeping up w/ whatever it was that made Sylar cool they tried to make him cool. Which never works.
EW! She drives a box-car!
Posted by captbastrd on 11/23/09 at 08:56 PMIncapacitation of Hiro attempt #475.
Posted by captbastrd on 11/23/09 at 09:00 PMWell, that was a compelling promo. I'll give it that.
Posted by conor on 11/23/09 at 09:00 PMis heroes getting renewed? does anyone know?
Posted by philipgraves068 on 11/24/09 at 01:02 PMIt has not been announced either way at this point.
Posted by conor on 11/24/09 at 02:52 PM


I cant wait for chuck!
