Sometimes I fucking LOVE the people in charge on these shows.

DEAD SIMONE!

\o/

*twirls around the room like an idiot*

Oh, thank God. I could only put up with so much posturing over that idiot between Isaac and Peter, although Peter can get pissed off and start flashing his powers left, right and center anytime he wants. I don't think he's ever been hotter on this show. Just ... DAMN.

Simone is full of holes! Woot!

And after the discussion with Nathan I was thrilled with the shooting. Because, seriously, he's got a point. Does she even LIVE in this country? People would scream, "Terrorism!" and shuffle these people into camps so fast their heads would spin. Maybe that's why I like Nathan -- because as creepy as it is at least he admits he'd do the same thing. (Well, that, and he's hot. And while we're in a completely gratuitous vein, I was kind of hoping he'd be the one to fly. Damn it.)

Also, oh, Hiro. Sending Ando away so that he'd be safe. AWWW. I want Ando to go home and back to his boring life and have Hiro come back to Japan using his powers to retrieve his sidekick. Oh, and ... STAN LEE!

Claude, come back! *whimpers* Beat up on Peter some more! God knows he could use it.

How much was I loving Claire this episode, too? Bennet's world is just falling apart around him and Claire's standing up to him made me want to reach through the screen and cuddle her, particularly when she said how much she wanted to run away. Yes, Claire! Run away! Go far far away! Like, say, New York City! *shoves her towards the door* And take Lyle! If he really is flailing around a baseball bat at Matt and Ted next week he should be her Ando.

I really like the new chick. She kind of kicks a whole lot of ass. And the thought of her, Matt and Ted teaming up had me all happy. YAY! I so need to write a "five random moments on the road" fic or something for this fandom. How many people have gone on road trips already? I mean, really. And speaking of people on road trips, Sylar and Mohinder? HEE. I shouldn't spend all of their scenes laughing at the both of them, and yet.

Also, Janice may have grew on me a little for smacking Matt upside the head with the fact that you cannot keep stolen property, idiot. I mean, I like him in all of his ineptitude, but come on, sweetie, give it up.

In summation: DEAD SIMONE! *dances*

Yes...that's all I can say in response. Yes.

[gweneiriol.livejournal.com]

I have to say I wasn't at all sad to see her gone. Not that I approve of Issac having killed her but still, she was sort of a blah character, imo.

Also, I agree with what you say about Janice and Matt. On a sorta sidenote, how did she suddenly balloon up like that? Didn't she just tell him she found out she was pregnant like, two episodes ago?

On a sorta sidenote, how did she suddenly balloon up like that? Didn't she just tell him she found out she was pregnant like, two episodes ago?

Yes, but each episode takes, if this is a normal drama, about a week to film, maybe 8 days. So events that take place in the same week in show time are weeks apart for the actors. The result, as Grunberg said in the episode commentary, is the world's fastest-growing fetus. Especially because they tried to hide her bulge for at least a little while before announcing the pregnancy.

oh cool! I definately didn't know that and that totally makes me feel less like I've missed a LOT instead of just one episode. :P

[spyderqueen.livejournal.com]

What about Nathan's awesome line about getting shipped of to a lab on an island in the middle of the ocean? Yeah, totally jabbing at LOST.


Oh Hiro, why can't you realize Ando helps with your powers too!

Did you read the online comics about Hana?

[shinga.livejournal.com]

OhmygodohmygodohmyGOD!

Last week when they said "some one dies" I said many times "OhgodPLEASE let it be Simone"!

I GOT MY WISH!

Peter went all invisible and Isaac was aiming the gun all over and I looked at my roommate and said "Simone is gonna walk in and he'll shoot her." AND IT HAPPENED. We both shot our hands up in the air and yelled "YES!!"

We're terrible people.

BUT STILL! DEAD SIMONE! *dances with you*

I have a feeling with the look between Isaac and Peter, Isaac may end up blaming Peter for Simone's death and be on the 'bad guy' side... if there is one. Because we're not so clear on everything yet.

*squeeee*

[squee1123.livejournal.com]

Hah. I hadnt even thought about Simone in the People to Die category. I was trying so hard to consider possibilities adn settled on the idea that if Isaac died...I would be sad...but less so than if anyone else kicked it.

Simone dying wins at everything.

[lyra-wing.livejournal.com]

My Claire-love grows with each passing ep. *beams*

And DUDE. I SO have a compentency kink, I realize this now. Competency in any shape or form (*cough* Winchesters), because dude. Peter finally getting some control over his powers was HOT LIKE AN EXPLODING MAN.

And the thought of her, Matt and Ted teaming up had me all happy.

I was surprised at how excited I was at them teaming up. An unlikely team, but a good one! \o/

[kanedax.livejournal.com]

BTW, that's the greatest icon ever.

[lyra-wing.livejournal.com]

ISN'T IT?

I also have an animated one of The Kiss, but I haven't uploaded it to my userpics yet. ;)

[kanedax.livejournal.com]

Eh, The Kiss vs. whoosh. whoosh wins. Always.

[kurukami.livejournal.com]

I am SO swiping that icon. *grin*

[kanedax.livejournal.com]

Can I swipe it too? cuz I love you. ;)

[lyra-wing.livejournal.com]

Sure. Just check my userpics to see who made it, and give them credit for it. I forgot.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Claire is so my favorite female character on this show. She's just growing up and maturing through all of this and it's amazing to watch.

And Peter and his powers ... I just NEED to write fic about that. *grabbyhands*

[lyra-wing.livejournal.com]

AND BRING CLAUDE BACK.

*cough*

I mean. Yes. I would love to see that fic. ;)

It's funny -- before the show started, I was certain I'd have a healthy dislike for Claire (blonde indestructible cheerleader? pshaw), but she's turning into my fave female character, too. (Aside from Hiro's big sis, who -- I AM CONVINCED -- has powers, too.)

[kanedax.livejournal.com]

Am I the only one who thought, for just a second, that it was going to be dead Isaac, and it would be Peter who chops off the top of his head for Hiro to find him? Peter was looking just a tad too psychotic there at the end.

Okay, yeah, maybe it was just me.

And, yes, Stan Lee is a Greyhound-driving god.

Can't wait for next week. Mr. Bennett origin in hazy black and white makes me giddy.

[wrenlet.livejournal.com]

You know what I want? Hana's power, so I could post to LJ from ANYWHERE ON THE PLANET, AHAHAHAHAH!

Hey, I dream small. :D

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Oh, my God, I could check my email anytime I wanted! *flails*

... er, I still want to be able to teleport the most. *shifty eyes*

[laughingacademy.livejournal.com]

As I said in my journal, I’m almost ashamed at how happy I was to see Simone get plugged.

Also, I will never get tired of watching Claude whale on Peter.

[tabaqui]

Whoo hoo!
Yes. The whole jealousy story-line was boring as hell. Now it'll be angst/grief/guilt/blame storyline, which is also boring but at least Simone won't be harshing my bliss.

And!! Claire *kicks ass*. And Hiro! *cuddles him*. And and and Peter flying and invisibling and being all telekinetic! Wheeee!

Sylar is gross and creepy and if he hurts Mohinder i'll be *very* angry! And i think Matt's wife is gonna turn him in.

And a Niki-free episode!
*has glee*

[polaris-starz.livejournal.com]

My wish was for a dead Simone and I got it! Although I didn't see her get shot-- the TV cut out, but I saw her die! Which shouldn't make me as gleeful as it did, but I was already on high about Peter being incredibly awesome with his powers.

I liked the reversal of Peter throwing Claude off a building this time. <3 And then the punch! Because Peter is Claude's punching bag, and he should remain so. I will be so sad if Claude doesn't come back soon.

Claire remains rocking like a very rocking thing. It takes a brave girl to stand up to HRG's woobieface. I wanted to cuddle him. His whole world is falling apart! (But I am so looking forward to Lyle with his baseball bat.)

Hiro made me clutch at a pillow and squeal. Oh, baby. And Ando made the sign back! Ando, darling! I love that we're seeing Hiro's evolution, though, even if it makes me sniffle.

Was Stan Lee the man who Hiro went with? I've never actually seen a picture of him. Possibly I just lose.

[kirana-44.livejournal.com]

Yes. I having nothing more to add, you've summed it all up so nicely.

[scottique.livejournal.com]

Why ARGs are for the win:

Hana's been sending me text messages for the last six weeks. When I saw her screen name "Wireless" pop up on Ted's computer, I went "Oh my God! Hana's finally here!"

As you said: \o/. Although I didn't see her being... what was she, wierdly British? Hr txt msgs wr all lk ths + i rly h8ed teh frmat; I figured she'd be both younger and less Matrix-chic.

(If you want to get in on the action, go to the Primatech paper website. Find the hidden link--you'll know it when you see it--and get into Bennet's account. The password is claire.)

Also, I just saw the new Ugly Betty, and SQUEEE at Charlie! I had the same reaction:
Charlie: "Fourteen dollars for a brownie?"
Me: "Oh hi Charlie!"
Betty: "Here's some money!"
Charlie: "I'm Charlie!"
Me: "No kidding!"

So, here is the question we're wondering: Can Peter absorb powers that aren't in use? Which is to say: next time he breezes by Sylar, will he get super-hearing and wrench-melting and whatever else Sylar's got between homecoming and now?

(Does it seem like they're running out of good super-powers? I mean, really. I'm waiting for the moment when Sylar meets the guy who can burn DVDs with his fingertips, or the chick which amazing calligraphy powers, or the elephant-whisperer, and says "Ech, not worth it." On the other hand, I can't blame them; I'd be running out too.)

[squee1123.livejournal.com]

Something about that "Ech, not worth it." really amused me.

[kellifer-fic.livejournal.com]

n summation: DEAD SIMONE! *dances*

Oh thank the Lord!! She was the one character on the show that I didn't like (and an ensemble this big, that's saying something!). She was pretty and all but JEEBUS was she boring!!

Woo!

[anglepoiselamp.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I so agree with everything you said. Especially DEAD SIMONE. (This fandom is making us all evil, isn't it?)

Now Peter can go to Nathan for comfort. Oh yes. A whole lot of hot, incestuous comfort. (Now repeat what I just said about this fandom = evil. :D)

[misachan.livejournal.com]

It always made me said that Simone was so blah, because her dad seemed to be pretty cool.

Oh, Claude. Come back soon! Peter will protect you from Claire's dad! And Claire could help! It'll be the best team-up ever!

[iseult-variante.livejournal.com]

Dude, I am so very, very excited for next week. Matt/Ted/Hana vs. Team Bennet!

I may have actually EEEE'ed alound at Stan Lee. EEE!

I was laughing at Sylar this week, I have to admit, when he kept getting feedback from his shiny new power. Serves you right, running around... murdering people! Um.

Competent Peter = HOTT. But I miss Claude already! Come back! I am curious as to whether he might still be following Peter. Hm. I don't know how Peter and Isaac over Simone's dead body is going to resolve itself without some outside intervention.

Lastly - I seem to have found one of your plotbunnies. It was wandering around here, all, "You know what would be fun? Fic where Peter is all flying, and being all cocky, and then Nathan shows him how it's done. Oh yeah." So here! Take it back! *flings* Not it!

[squee1123.livejournal.com]

whee! I am glad Simone is gone. She bugged me from DAY ONE. Argh! Also...i dont know! Im still buzzing! I cant wait for Monday! Heroes and Black Donelleys! Yay NBC!

[winterlive.livejournal.com]

WOO SIMONE BITED IT. \o/

it's like they killed lana in the first season of smallville. AMAZING.

petey, um. hm. hm. wow.

i love the new justice league, like, a WHOLE LOT. because they are ex-cops who carry GUNS, and have PREGNANT WIVES AT HOME. ack ack ack i love this show.

[wufeidragon.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I just watched it. The title of the episode really was perfect because when it ended I said aloud, "Wow, that was unexpected." But definitely the best choice of character to kill off. I was so afraid it was going to be Mohinder. I would have cried. I am getting very stressed out with this Sylar thing because I'm just constantly afraid for Mohinder and the people he's visiting. It's awful....

Also, what would happen if Sylar got Nikki/Jessica's power? What exactly is the deal there? I really can't figure out what the hell that situation is and I'm getting sick of it, I want her to integrate it or something. It's killing me.

But Peter... I pretty much squealed with delight when he was using his powers. Thank god! He's everything I always wished Rogue would be.

Aaaagh. I can't wait for Monday.
