<p>RODS: 24 is an excellent edge of your seat show, but I’d suggest watching it from Season 1.</p>
<p>Any Dexter fans out there? Disclaimer: I’ve only seen Seasons 1 and 2, so no spoilers please!</p>
<p>I hate it when there’s a shapeshifter - so cheap…the writers can do anything now because oh well, it’s a shapeshifter…</p>
<p>I don’t know what Sylar’s goal (as Nathan) is anymore.</p>
<p>I loved the part about stealing socks…in the first episode, Angela Petrelli was arrested for shoplifting socks. Last time she told her sister that she always steals socks for her.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>And Missypie gets the award for most impressive memory for detail. I never would have remembered that.</p>
<p>Wow missypie! That’s so cool. I didn’t remember that. Makes me want to go buy the first season so I can watch it again. This is one of my favorite shows!</p>
<p>So what did you guys think of the finale? Why won’t they kill Siler completely? It’s clear that parts of him will keep popping up in Nathan.
Also, what’s up with Hiro?</p>
<p>Without Sylar there really is no story. He’s Voldermort – the personification of evil, and his ability to absorb powers makes him formidable.</p>
<p>I was okay with season 2, and I have really enjoyed season 3.</p>
<p>I found last night’s episode really poignant. Angela’s blood curdling screams at Nathan’s death were a lot different than her Lady Macbeth persona.</p>
<p>I miss the Haitian though, and Micah’s father. </p>
<p>Sylar is the most interesting character, I think. </p>
<p>I do feel really sad that Nathan is gone.</p>
<p>Oh, and I think people really do have “abilities” like missypie’s memory, although I did remember that too.</p>
<p>I think that’s what makes the show a bit spooky. Many of the powers are farfetched, and yet people can do more than it is commonly supposed.</p>
<p>Does anyone else think Mohinder is unbelievably stupid?</p>
<p>LOL about Mohinder. Okay, so glad someone revived this thread. It took me until today to figure out where they got the Sylar body to burn and that was only a few weeks ago plus there was a preview to clue us in. But, I’m confused. We saw in Season 1 and 2 Sylar in the far future looking like himself. And I think we saw Nathan as well. And we know Hiro keeps traveling through time and stopping it. Is Nathan really going to stay dead? After all, this is Heroes. And…why did anyone think this plan of Matt whispering to Sylar that he’s really Nathan is going to actually transform him? Kind of dumb. It was kind of cool the way Peter managed to trick Sylar. And when is Peter going to go back to being able to collect abilities? I don’t know…I really liked most of this season but this did not work for me. And how many times is Nikki/Traci whatever going to come back? I guess this is the third and last version.</p>
<p>I wasn’t very happy with this season at all. Enough with the shape shifting and I agree with the Nikki/Traci overkill. </p>
<p>Mimko: Can you remind me about the preview that you’re referencing?</p>
<p>And, yeah, Mythmom, Mohinder is not very with it. I do like Matt Parkman though. (How can you not?)</p>
<p>Twinmom, it was the last scene of the episode. You know how they give the first scene or two of the next chapter? It said, Volume 5, “Redemption” and an agent comes into his home and sees water running. He follows the trail of water and then out of the water rises the Ali Later character with cool special effects and she says, “You’re number 4” and then we see Sylar/Nathan reading about mysterious drownings. Then there is the scene where Angela comes in and Nathan fixes the clock that is running late. Then “to be continued”</p>
<p>Excellent comparison, mythmom between Sylar and Voldemort. But although I think it works well for book series to have one enemy throughout, in this television medium, it just seems stale. It was good to have bald government guy as a second villain. </p>
<p>I had seen predictions that included have Angela’s sister Alice show up in the finale, but that didn’t happen. However, I don’t think we’ve seen the last of her. Changing the weather! I’d love to have that power.</p>
<p>I think the futures we saw with Daphne and Matt and their baby, a nice Sylar and other things will no longer happen. It was a possible future that is no longer possible.</p>
<p>I do think Nathan is dead and that it will be problematic to watch Sylar emerge.</p>
<p>Matt can control consciousness, so for Angela it was worth a shot to have the illusion of her son.</p>
<p>I think Adrian Pasdar is doing a great job in differentiated Nathan from Nathan/Sylar.</p>
<p>And I think this plot device allows the show to explore what makes a person? Memories, experiences or some essence that some would call “soul”.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Good question. Maybe when conscious, it wouldn’t work with Sylar.</p>
<p>I liked the President to Peter switch. But I will miss Zach Quinto (creepily handsome, or handsomely creepy.) [Can’t wait to see Star Trek!)</p>
<p>Husband was sure that Weather Sister would show up in the finale in a big way.</p>
<p>And folks, it’s NOT me with the memory…it’s my Aspie son…that’s why we’ll be totally lost when he goes away to school.</p>
