andrasteNon-Heroes fans will be getting bored with my spamming already, but obviously I'll slow down tomorrow since I have work then.
Hiro and Ando are utterly adorable. I don't know what was cuter - Hiro constantly calling Isaac and babbling at him in a language Isaac doesn't understand, their 'yay!' dance after saving the girl, or the car rental scene. "It is our destiny."
I haven't said much about Mohinder's storyline, since it's obviously on a slow burn at the moment, but I am starting to wonder about his father's 'friend.' We only have Eden's word for it that she knew Professor Suresh, and Sylar found out that Mohinder had been in his room awfully quickly ... Also, any time Mohinder wants to strip down to his tank top? I will not be complaining. Mmmmm, hot geneticist.
Everyone who suggested I start taking notes on the Petrellis to keep track: I see what you mean. While watching the relevant scene, I said "Nathan, you bastard!" out loud. Then, a moment later, "and I mean that as a compliment." Also cracked up at Peter's spectacular faceplant off the monkey bars. Great stuff!
Speaking of which, poor Matt! (I think that's going to be a constant refrain.) I am liking Audrey, too, and it's great that she was smart enough to realise that Matt was telling the truth about his telepathy. Plus Clea DuVall is another actor I love to watch. Sylar is just as scary when we can (sort of) see him. Obviously telekinetic, but I wonder if the freezing is covered by that. Maybe he does something with water molecules to achieve that effect? Am starting to think I don't want to know what he's doing with the brains.
Three episodes in, and both the female leads have suffered an attempted rape, which does not make me like the show's gender politics any more. On the bright side, Claire continues to gain complexity and her power is gloriously icky. The writers on this show sure know how to end an episode!
