OH MY GOD SEASON PREMIERE OF HEROES. HOW DO I ALWAYS FORGET HOW FREAKING AWESOME THIS SHOW IS?!
Where do I even start?
How about...surprises.
PETER SHOT NATHAN, WTF TOTALLY DID NOT SEE THAT COMING.
MOHINDER IS THE BIGGEST DUMBASS IN THE UNIVERSE. Oh wait. That's not a surprise. I just forget.
SYLAR GOT CLAIRE? THAT'S ALLOWED TO HAPPEN? WHAT?!
......and now that the PMS is covered, moving on.
Things I liked:
FEMALE CHARACTERS MIGHT ACTUALLY DO THINGS AND BE GOOD.
I mean, I didn't have anything against them before but they didn't DO anything.
Angela Petrelli is fucking awesome. And I'm saying that after two years of hating her guts.
Claire has actual issues now, which is fun.
Niki matters again! First season was great, second...not so much.
Elle will do some cool shit maybe. If not, I won't miss her.
Mia has improved greatly, characterwise. Except she's a slut and I hate her. *fangirlish envy*
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand I love Daphne!! (AND the art department even made sure the Mona Lisa was the right size!)
ADRIAN PASDAR.
He is soooooooooo good. Seriously. I think he is highly underappreciated.
TIME TRAVEL RIGHT OFF THE BAT.
Butterfly-fucking-effect, people. It's gonna be great.
Also, that whole Ando killed Hiro thing? Sweet! I mean, not actually. But storywise.
REFERENCES!
Hiro and Ando went from Batman to Sherlock Holmes in the blink of an eye, excellent!
Moving on to things I didn't like:
QUOTIING 'THINGS FALL APART'
I know it was just the poem, but seriously. That is not okay ever.
Keep that shit the hell away from my Heroes.
STEPHEN TOBOLOWSKY IS DEAD.
I am so not okay with that.
And then there was just all that random weird shit which brings me to...
WTFs:
Nathan the Messiah.
Seriously, Tim Kring and creative staff? What the hell is up? Is Linderman supposed to be the angel Gabriel? I'm fuckin' confused.
WHY ARE PETER AND MOHINDER THE DUMBEST PEOPLE ON THE FACE OF THE PLANET?
Peter travels through time, fucks things up, and keeps doing it.
Meanwhile, Mohinder starts off being pretty cool and then suddenly up and decides to turn himself into the Superman-Spiderman-Sex-God.
...not that I'm complaining about the lack of shirt (until that scabby shit...ew), but seriously. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?
WHY DID YOU TAKE PARKMAN AWAY?!
He's in Africa with African Issac Mendez? Wtf. And you made him the freaking comic relief? *sigh*
And now, the two biggest WTFs of all:
WHERE IS MICAH?
And WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH ALI LARTER?
I say Ali Larter instead of Niki because, honestly, I'm not sure what to expect. Maybe it's not Niki. Maybe twin Jessica didn't actually die. I mean, for crying out loud, ice powers? Where did that come from? Oy vey.
Btw, that last minute thing with Sylar and Angela Petrelli? Totally knew that was coming. Not that I wanted it to, but...these things happen.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm....okay, so I think I've covered just about everything I had to say.
Overall reaction?
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGIAMSOFREAKINGEXCITEDFORTHISSEASONOMG.
To think I was actually worried they'd run out of story. Psh!
