Just watched the first two episodes and there's a couple of things that kind of bother me.

Edit: This is spoilers from both episodes, so don't read the second paragraph if you haven't seen ep 2!

Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!

Firstly, it's a bit of a cop-out that all of a sudden anyone can have powers. I guess it expands things, but it feels like a 'cheap' way of doing it. Secondly, how lax is Hiro about the theft of an earth-destroying formula, entrusted to him mere seconds before. It's like he's learned nothing from the last two series.

Oh, and re Peter not helping Nathan, I think it was all planned. Peter didn't seem at all shocked when Nathan woke from the dead. It seems future Peter has the ability to 'put' people inside other people, and I'm wondering if he's thrown Lindeman, with his rejuvenation powers, into Nathan in some way.

End Spoiler Alert!

It's a bit 4400 esque, in that I think they're pushing for the idea that not everyone will have a favourable reaction to it. In The 4400 something called Promicin gave people their abilities. People could take promicin but there was a 50/50 chance that it would either kill you or give you powers. Seeing Mohinder's increased drinking and so on I can't help but wonder if that's yet another thing they're going to whip from 4400!

There is nicely the hint of a big debate set up with Maya and Mohinder anyway, giving powers to everyone would be a very dangerous thing. Harkens off to 4400 and comic book worlds like with X-Men and the great mutant debates, Marvel's Civil War series and so on. Plenty of material for them to rip off

Hiro is dense, very dense, but oh well :-/

I like that you like her.

They really seem to have sexed everyone up for this series - they all look like they've strolled in from the beach or the set of The OC or something. Maya in particular has gone from a dirty immigrant to a chic supermodel in about three episodes flat. Practically everyone has flawless skin as well. It doesn't feel right really.

BBx · 03-10-2008, 13:20

They are all 'speshal' their powers are developing and so are their skin cells :/

I thought the first two eps of season three were a right mess. I'll keep watching in the hope that it improves but right now it's halfway over the shark.

4th in and wtf, far to much going on, just reminds me of season 1

I can't believe there's been no discussion about the end of this weeks (BBC2) episode!

My jaw hit the floor!
