Heroes Watch: And here we go...

Anyone else notice that 'Heroes" was a lot more interesting when the characters lost their powers?

AAAGGGHH! Sorry... here's your SPOILER ALERT. Not like I told you anything the commercials for tonight's episode didn't already spill.

This won't be long.

Temporary "spider" break for SURESH (I have nothing to add).

CLAIRE (heal thy self) learns to fight from NOAH (her daddy) and then everything in the plot goes "General Hospital."

PETER (Mr. everything) actually comes off smarter than his brother NATHAN (Flyboy politician).

HIRO (The master of time travel) makes that jump over the shark and then surfs on a dolphin when he lands in Kansas.

DAPHNE (the speedy hipster) reveals something that may have been obvious.

SYLAR (super serial killer) makes out with ELLE (I can't believe this was Veronica Mars).

And despite all of this I am still compelled to know how the show will change direction in the wake of departed producer and writer Jeph Loeb. Alas, this will not be answered until sometime next year.

Nevertheless, here are my pleas to the writers... get my man Robert Forster some more villainy moments. Don't wipe out THE HAITIAN the way you did every other black male character on the show and even if you don't do anything with the future storyline, find a way to get Claire back into the "evil-Claire" wardrobe.
