[QUOTE="Mark, post: 4660788, member: 5"] Spoilers! [spoiler]What a shame after the action of last week that they chose to drop back down into slo-mo-soap-opera pace and trot out the dialog we came to abhor from previous seasons. I think we all understand the "normal life" dilemma Clair is facing and do not need to hear her bemoan it any more. Add it into the "previously on Heroes" mix as a two second sound byte for those just beginning to watch and let's move on. Ali Larter has not been one of my favorites on the show but I thought she did a pretty good job this time. Perhaps because she had a morally/ethically gray moment with which she had to struggle. Her situation with Micah in previous seasons began to grate on me in the same way as Clair's dilemma. I get the feeling that Nathan is actually someone else's stalking horse. Otherwise I am not sure they would be able to have the character turn back to being a true hero and I find it hard to believe they'd throw him under a bus for a plot. I think they cast Zeljko Ivanek, in part, because he is three inches shorter than Adrian Pasdar and the lack of size makes the Hunter less imposing than I think he should be. The Syler arc is shaping up nicely for this season and the introduction of a protege is a good idea, IMO. It raises the stakes for his character. Hiro and Ando took a back seat this week, more or less, and I feel that episodes are often stronger when they are part of the main storyline. Poor Parkman. He is becoming a vengeful god and we know he's going to hate himself when they drag Clair in to bring the Speedster back to life and Parkman then has to reconcile having killed in anger. I'll post more if I think of more. I'll join the "We need more Lyle and turtle, too!" fanclub, just because it is funny.[/spoiler] [/QUOTE]
