Heroes, Villains, or whatever the hell their calling themselves now…
Posted in: 200 Channels and nuthin on... by Spider on November 11, 2008
Alright…last night’s episode of Heroes was just stupid. The time tripping is really…REALLY starting to piss me off…and this flashback crap…ooh how everything started…are you kidding Heroes? It smacks of LOST. All this recapping and whatnot. Sure it was interesting to see how everyone crossed paths prior but still…hello…LOST anyone?
They keep rehashing the same.old.dull.plot lines over and over again. And the lines between good and bad are so blurred you don’t know who’s what. And we got to see SUPER whiny Peter, I didn’t think he could be more of a little whiny bitch…but damn…he pulled it off.
Alright I don’t even want to talk about it anymore…much like Supe, I have no investment in these characters, I don’t care what happens to them, I’m not interested in what happens to them next…(although that is a lie, because I will watch it next week).
Speaking of next week, after watching what was obviously the worse episode so far this season, I didn’t think the writers could outdo themselves on the…well…badness…until I saw the previews for next week. An eclipse (supposedly gave them their abilities…okaaay) now It’s happening again…oooh what does this mean? Will they LOSE their abilities? Will it get dark out? Will they become vulnerable to kryptonite? Will I stick a crochet hook in my eye? Find out the answers to these questions and more next week on Heroes…Villains…oh whatever…

Ok, now that the election is over…thank God…I can go back to talking about one of my favorite subjects…idiots. While I am surrounded by them on a daily basis, this comment I heard on the newscast of my local NBC affiliate last night was quite possibly one of the dumbest things I’ve heard in a long time.
They were reporting on how our ilustrious governor is planning on dissolving the turnpike authority, blah, blah, blah…and that “it could be put to a vote as early as Friday…that’s the end of this week” I was momentarily stunned…Friday? The end of this week? Wait a minute…HOLY SHIT! Friday is at the end of EVERY week! If only I had learned that years ago…somewhere around the 1st grade…oh…wait…I DID. But hey, I’m not one to be ungrateful…so thanks local NBC affiliate for pointing out the blindingly obvious…

Ok, so I’m not exactly “off” Heroes. Much like Lost it has me sucked in, and as hard as I might to try and turn away, I can’t. Bastards. I hate 90% of the characters. In fact the only character that I find mildly entertaining is Syler…yes the original villain. Go figure. His bad guy trying to be good thing is funny…don’t ask me why. Everybody else is whiny, and annoying. But every Monday, there I am, damn you Heroes! At least I have broken the Svengali hold that LOST had on me…so there is hope.

Ok, that tears it! Much like Supe, I am “off” Heroes. Last night’s episode was just dumb. First of all, all of this time hopping stuff gives me a headache. I think Heroes needs a Temporal Prime Directive. (Yea, I’m a half-assed Trekkie…you wanna make something of it?)
Suresh and “The Fly” stuff was really…and I mean really…lame. Come on…how about a little originality here. Again Peter was his whiny little self. Oh, people are good, they will control themselves…Are you on crack dude? The whole thing was just stuuupiiiid. I was bored, and with the Sox playing, there is really no comparison…see ya later Heroes…
