I'm still pondering over what's happening in Season Two...

Though I DO like the changes that I've seen Kring and Crew apply to the show in the past two weeks, I'll reserve judgment on the show, as a whole until later this week.

Truthfully...I missed the first half of the last show *hanging head low* Yes, it's true. The Canadian Heroes FANATIC, Teeray (me) actually MISSED part of a show...

I will catch up on viewing the most recent episode and then comment on it by the weekend.

What I did see...FREAKED ME OUT!

What the freakin' H--- was MAYA doing with SYLAR?

Again, for a SECOND WEEK in a row...I am in denial...

I did NOT see Maya smooching Sylar...

No, no, no...that just did NOT happen...I closed my eyes and that vision went away!

:)

It exists only as a scant remnant of my imagination now...I am going to close my eyes during that portion of the show once I locate the best online viewing source for Heroes this week!

One part that I DO REMEMBER from the show and will verify, along with a 'thumbsup'.....

*cheering* YAY, Claire! Way to tell that freaky, disturbed Elle right off, my fine cheerleader friend! I really LIKED WHAT I SAW.....Claire has really got some 'umph' going for her at this point.

Way to be assertive, Claire!

*thumbsup*

Claire Bennet not in this episode! This is a first! Claire has been in all the Season One episodes and the previous 4 Heroes Season Two episodes.

New character, Monica, shows off some uncanny abilities in this episode while our sweet little Micah tags along, watching.

Here's the NBC TV site link if you missed the episode:

Heroes Season Two Episode 5, "Fight or Flight"

Check out the synchronized fight scenes with Matt and Nathan. This was really well orchestrated!

New character, Monica, is also using her fists in this episode - watch for the excellent Bruce Lee moves. (There's also a cool movie clip shown of Bruce Lee...Monica is watching it on TV in this episode).

Let me know what you think. (Don't forget - there's chat software on the blog)

Here's a link for viewing the Heroes episode, "Four Months Later"

I just read an interesting interview where Tim Kring speaks out about what's in store for Heroes Season Two.

Basically, he says to face facts:

There are limited numbers of truly COOL 'superpowers' or abilities. The rest are variations upon certain powers.

In season two, Kring focuses on showing viewers that these EXTRAORDINARY abilities are becoming known to people ALL OVER THE WORLD, so naturally, Kring can't INVENT brand new abililties for everyone he brings into the show!

OF COURSE - there will be characters who have similar or same abilities...no rocket science here. There can't be only one person in the HEROES world with the extraordinary ability to fly or be invisible or heal or whatever... particularly if more characters are going to show up and cast/Heroes numbers rise.

So - don't be tuning in looking for more special effects designed to highlight new abilities that you've never seen before...instead look for how the Heroes find new ways to use their abilities!

Besides - the character interaction and what the characters DO with their powers are what will be important in Season Two (Generations).

After all - don't we all want to know how the people USE their powers and cope with the fact that they have extraordinary abilities? This is what is important.

For instance - in Season One (Origins) I thought that Nathan was a jerk for a long time. He never did anything wonderful with his abilities, he never helped anyone out via use of his extraordinary powers, now did he? Not for a lonnnnnng time, he didn't!

While other characters began to use their abilities to help others, Nathan just sat around KNOWING that he could fly!

Even Peter was TRYING TO USE abilities for the good of others during a time when he didn't even KNOW what abilities he possessed. Hiro, of course, is all about helping others...

"Save the cheerleader, save the world" is this not the mantra that both Hiro and Peter use all throughout Season One? And THIS is more important than the special effects or television effects of any abilities...

Back to the Tim Kring info...

Kring hints that some of the Heroes characters are going to fall back on old ways, so we're not going to see everything we want to see this season. Obviously, most people want to see Heroes using their abilities to the utmost potential and for the good of all mankind...ultimately, this is what Heroes are supposed to do, right?

Well - it's not going to happen right away in Season Two of the Heroes season.
("he he he" said the HEROES blogger gal)

Tim Kring doesn't actually give out too many facts in this interview, found at the Can Mag .com website, but what he does tell are a few hints that will keep viewers TUNED IN.

I don't want to over-extend comments here about the interview because who could explain this stuff better than creator of Heroes, Tim Kring himself?

I urge to you follow up and read the interview:

The Interview is Titled "Tim Kring Talks - Heroes Season Two"

The interview is from September 13, which occurred 11 days before the season opener show, so you'll note that Tim drops some hints but keeps a pretty tight lip on scenarios, characters and plot development.

It's a good interview to check out - now that the first Heroes show of Season Two has recenly come to air (last night). You can compare what Tim said on September 13th with what you saw on last night's Heroes episode!

Heroes 9th Wonders Comic Art T-Shirt Original 9th Wonders comic art by Tim Sale now screened on an exclusive Heroes T-Shirt. As any true Heroes fan knows, the plot of Heroes is designed to be similar to the stories of comic books. This 9th Wonders Comic tee depicts the scene from the Heroes Pilot episode when Hiro travels in time and warps to NYC. Sure to be a collector's item!
