Oh, Heroes.
How I've Missed Thee.
It is back!!! After a gruelling, torturous three-month wait, where I pined and pined away and experienced withdrawal symptoms only slightly mollified by the hilarious home videos made by
Adrian Pasdar on youtube (check it out @
http://www.youtube.com/user/buckshotwon), I finally have Heroes back in my life.
And it's chockful of new characters!!! Hot new characters!!! Hot new characters with mysterious powers!!!
Oh, Heroes. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways:
1. Matt and Mohinder and Molly under one roof
How amazingly cute is it that Molly gets to stay with her two favourite people in the world? The guy who cured her from the disease and the guy who saved her from Sylar? Molly's so adorable. And her banter with Matt Parkman? Adooooorable. Although the creepy man who continues to give her creepy nightmares continues to be freaking creepy. "I can seeeeee yooooouuuuu..." o_O *Meeep*
2. Goodlooking Hispanic Twins with Mysterious Powers
Maya and Alejandro! Firstly, they speak with such beautiful accents... and they seem to be going through so much and are hiding such a tragic ability... plus I'm a sucker for close siblings who would do anything for each other (much like Peter and Nathan). And it doesn't hurt that they're both very goodlooking. Haha.
3. Another Flying Man!
I like the fact that powers are not exclusive to one Hero... How cute is it that Claire's new love interest can fly?! And he's really cute...... in an unassuming, non-jock, adorable kinda way.
4. OooOoH Mystery Surrounding the Older Generation
In the beginning, there were Thirteen (or was it Twelve?). And they founded the Company. And they wanted to make the world a better place for Heroes... and things went horribly wrong and now one of them is turning against the remaining few... and POOR PAPA NAKAMURA!!! I liked his character, I didn't want him to die. :( *weepyface* Or maybe he's not dead yet? You never know, with this show. And we haven't even gotten a chance to see his POWER. *sob* Angela Petrelli continues to be mysterious in a scary way.
5. OooOoH Mystery Surrounding the Disappearance and Supposed Death of Peter
4 months gone... and poor poor Peter is chained inside a container half naked (I'm not complaining) and has LOST HIS MEMORY?!! To top that off, he's wearing the Haitian's necklace, which suggests that this memory loss is the Haitian's doing. And assuming the Haitian is acting under Angela's orders..... what on EARTH?! Poor Wide-Eyed Confused Lost Little Boy Peter...... But he does that whole wide-eyed look sooooo well. See below! (And try not to drool)
6. Poor Drunken Pining Nathan
Okay, not digging the abundance of facial hair. Oh, but it only serves to show how completely lost and distraught Nathan is without his idealistic little brother, that he's living in Peter's apartment, drinking his life away, consumed with guilt, waiting and wondering if Peter will ever return.
7. Hiro's Hilarious Escapades
Ha! Can't believe that Takezo Kensei is an ang-moh. A drunken no-use ang-moh. :) Could things get any weirder? Can't wait to watch his adventures unfold in ancient feudal Japan.
8. The Blissful Lack of Sylar
How nice is that? I suspect this won't last long though. Blah.
Things that Give Me The Creeps
1. "I Can See You..."
The Season 2 BigBad... ARGH... I'm already freaked out.
2. Bald Company Man
The guy with the Midas touch... He's irritating. And creeeeeepy. I don't like him already. BLEARGH. Maybe he's one of the Thirteen from the older generation. Is he the killler?!?!
My brother's only comment was: "Why is it that they keep introducing so many good looking men into the show and not GIRLS?!?!?!!" Ha, typical. All I can say is... Neh-neh-ni-booboo! :) Anyways, I don't know why he's complaining. Kristen Bell is appearing from episode 5 onwards... with electric-manipulation powers and a slightly off-kilter and flirty personality! Can't wait... Now if only Jason Dohring would appear in Heroes toooooo... that would be the very sweet icing on an already amazing cake.
Next Monday/Tuesday come fasteeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!! :)
Oh, and tomorrow, I'm going to watch the first two episodes of Prison Break Season 3! Woooooohooooooooo I love American TV.
