Kinda sad seeing so many people say they never watched season 4. Season 3 was ultimate bullshit but 4 was fairly good with the Evil Carnival led by T-Bag Magneto.

Blazing Ownager posted:ED: Also I see this show's logo is the blown up Earth, are they going to decide that Hiro's vision in the first episode of season 3 that started the whole season but never ever even got close to happening at any point in the show's run is still happening? Really? I thought they eventually implied that Hiro's vision was Earth-Magneto's doing.

I know TVIV loves nothing more than post endlessly about bad shows rather than actually watch or discuss good shows but the trailers coming out for this are at worst kind of bland and inoffensive, and show some actual promise. Also season 4 was absolutely better than 2 and 3. As goofy as season 4 was, it was actually a proper "comic book story" with T-Bag as Dirt Magneto. Season 3 was so bad that Robert Forrester couldn't even redeem it.

Golden Bee posted:Let's give it up for bland! I mean, if the 90 seconds they hype us with are boring, the entire season has to be great! That's how trailers work! I didn't say this will be a great, or even a good, show. I just said the trailers are actually quite promising, especially given what they have to work with (Mohinder returning, e.g.) People might not give TVIV so much poo poo if there were any middle ground between "this show gave me orgasms. plural" and "this show gave me cancers. plural".

Blazing Ownager posted:So quick question: Was, objectively, Daphne and Parkman the single worst on-screen pairing for a romance ever to reach the screen not as a deleted extra? I wouldn't say "worst", but certainly "most perplexing".

Was he that much older? I thought Park Man was like 29 or 30 and Daphne was about 20. Goofy ex-cop and manic pixie hipster just had nothing in common.

Azhais posted:There's always "Powers", a Playstation exclusive series! That show was not nearly as bad as it could have been. Eddie Izzard did alright and so did the guy who played Johnny Royale. The effects were bad but it was better than, say, Agents of SHIELD's first dozen episodes or so.

Any of y'all that seriously think those two episodes weren't as good as the first two episodes of season 1 have some serious nostalgia goggles on. Stop being cynical for like five seconds and admit this showed way more promise than seasons 2-4 gave any indication it would.

Gonz posted:The videogame portions sure did look like they got the same people who make fake videogames on SVU to do them. I was half expecting Ice-T to show up with Mariska Hargitay and deliver some exposition. You guys do realize that a show like this doesn't have the budget to make Uncharted 4 just for the purposes of a few scenes, right. I mean who cares if it looked a decade old, I still found the actual use of it to be just fine.

The news is reporting that Mohinder is taking credit but that's pretty obviously disinformation since we haven't actually heard him speak yet. He's probably in hiding or something.

Blazing Ownager posted:Random related comic's question: Has there ever been a comic with the cliche of people suddenly getting powers for some purpose and have it turn out that these powers were in fact a curse, and everyone used them in terrible manners? Marvel's "New Universe" kinda did that. Despite it being a failure on the scale of "New Coke", some of the comics in that line were actually quite interesting. DP7 is the one most obviously analogous to Heroes.

"Forget the past, Noah." "But... but I'm sure Robert Forrester was there... and a Mexican couple... and..." "FORGET THE PAST" Also, am I wrong or has either "We have Molly Walker" or "We've lost Molly Walker" been said in every episode so far? Haha

Why did the guy say "you wouldn't believe me if I told you" when asked where Hiro is? Motherfucker can travel through time AND space, where would he be that would be unbelievable? So the plan is obviously "teleport things into the future". What I'm trying to wrap my brain around is "why not use the powers of evos to uh just stop the solar flare in the first place". On a scale of "easy" to "hard" I would really think that "literally terraforming our own planet from scratch" would be definitely harder than "put a big shield over poo poo or something".

EricFate posted:He's hiding in the computer game, because that is the most stupid answer. I mean, we all know Heroes is full of incomprehensible bullshit, but would even they have Hiro suddenly also be a guy who went back in time, assumed the name "Hichiro", programmed/designed a massively popular MMORPG, just so he could make himself a daughter that can travel back and forth between "real" and "unreal" planes of reality by using his swor you know what, you're right.

So Adam got jobbed out twice, is what we're saying here. As much as I don't mind this reboot, it very much begs the question: why doesn't someone just write a spy thriller show for Jack Coleman to star in? He's very obviously the best part of the show, the show even acknowledges this.

OK, that episode was pretty bad. I didn't really care about any of it. Hiro doesn't even act like the same character, it's like he's playing Masi Oka playing Hiro in a cameo for a student film.
