Heroes: Episode 2.6 "The Line" Recap - Page 2

One last thing.. if NBC knows whats good for it.. Journeyman should be the lead in to Heroes. Maybe they'd get some nice buildup in order to sell Heroes with. Far and away Journeyman torches Heroes on a weekly basis in pretty much all areas.

Yeah, I'm with you tailhook on the vast superiority of Journeyman. I don't think it's that Anders is miscast so much as the role iand that whole plot is mishandled. It's generally assumed, and rightfully so I think, that Anders will eventually reappear as a modern character and he will get to play the actual role he was cast to play. I still say Mr, Petrelli, and yes, I'm aware that it conflicts with the graphic novels, but you know what: Hiro just fractured the space/time continuum. I realize that's a cheat, but really, anything is now possible.

Heroes is a big disapointment this season.

I doubt this is what you intended... but I keep thinking about that line from Cabaret, "You know what is funny about Hermann... there's nothing funny about Hermann." But anyways, this episode restored my faith... but MORE Mrs. Petrelli!!!! I could watch her all hour.

I'm totally with tailhook on this episode. Why the heck are we dealing with yet another mass wipeout? I felt that some of the quotes were directly taken out from season 1. The entire time I watched the episode, I felt that stories were being cut at the best time, only to return back to a disappointing reveal. So now we have yet another problem to listen to and figure out. And yet last week's episode was sooo good!!!

Oh ya, and how did Kensei manage to defeat his enemies and walk his way over to see Yaeko and Hiro kiss? Writers, please clarify this because the plot was a little too forced. This week's episode focused on the worst stories in Heroes...so maybe next week's will be better where I won't have to listen about Hiro, Claire, and Peter's new "save the world, again" stuff. I seriously hope so at least.

This episode is boring. The only thing interesting in here was Sylar's attempt to brain the twins. They should just kill Claire/West already. This episode confirm that they are beyond boring.

I personally think David Anders is great! I felt so bad for Kensei when he saw Hiro mkissing his girl, he was so upset! aww *hugs him*
yes the fact that DA is cute, (and that stublle

) doesnt hurt either
Im interested in how its goning to work out....and will be cool if Kensei is ion future!
Calire and west are so awfull. really Claires just annoying me. I hope thatsomething happens soon to make her stop being so self absorbed and annoying
so who the heck is adam?
sylar does make me laugh the way he keeps eyeing Maya's head.
this ep wasnt spectaular but could have been worse....

The plot of this show really needs to start going somewhere. The Claire story line has become extremely annoying and has nothing to do with the overall plot of the show. Hiro's story had better wrap up soon, and if Kensei has nothing to do with the company or anything in the future, I will be really pissed that they wasted our time for the last six episodes with these dumb flashbacks. I'm just glad they put Sylar with the wonder twins so at least that storyline is bearable now.

I don't get what's so similar about a virus that wipes out 93% of the population of earth! What do you WANT the plotine to be, if it's not about them becoming heroes then we've kind of lost sight of what the show is about, right?I mean the name pretty much signposts what might theoretically happen in the show.I thought it was ANOTHER awesome episode, and that people should take a look at the first six episodes of season one if they think these are slow and crap, because they're far superior, and we're only at the same point of the new story.
