I agree about powers – why the hell wouldn’t you use them to get ahead?

And about the dragging scene, yeah, that’s the first thing I thought of, too.

We need more of this as it baffles my gf and I as we watch people like Parkman and Jeremy being little bitches about their powers.- RE: The dragging scene with Jeremy. There was no way I thought they would really do it. Living in Texas, the Jasper TX dragging death story is still very well known and I thought Heroes showed some balls with that graphic of a death.- Want more carny folk! I want to see some more of their powers, if not just quick glimpses (like the family of "fire breathers").- And the Sorority: Founded in 1920's? Hell Week already before they even pledged? or had a pledgeship? It's the top house and there were only 4 in their pledge class? Yeah, sounds like a smart kid (Honors) Sorority rather then a real one. - I loved Samuel and his brand of justice at the end.

Although I've always loved this show, probably because I started watching during season 2 and thought it was amazing and didn't see season 1 til later. But for the first time and a longgg time I felt human emotions after watching an episode of Heroes! I didn't even care about Jeremy that much, but his death was SO SAD. And I LOVE Ali Larter and her characters, and I really think it's a shame she isn't utilized more because Ali Larter acts the crap out of every scene she's in (ik you hate her, but I loved Tracy last night and she was basically the best part of the premiere).And I LOVE the Carnival people too! They are incredibly intriguing, and Samuel makes a fantastic villain. His plan is slowly shaping up I think. It seems pretty much like this: he wants to gather as many "heroes" as possible so that they can attack the regular humans. That's what it seems like anyway.AND (totally ranting now, sorry) I really like Emma, the visuals to her power are really striking, and it's really cool that it has a sort of destructive twist. ANDDDD the cello that was sent to her in Hysterical Blindness was from the Carnival! They must have some sort of interest in Emma!NEXT EPISODE LOOKS FANTASTIC!

Was Sylar just messing with Matt? I guess that would make sense. Anyway, I'm glad he took over.@ CherylNext week should be good, yeah. Old school Sylar is always welcome. I just hope Hiro doesn't do something dumb and screw up time for the 500th time.@PaulOh, come on...right when I start to like this show again, you're going to hate it???@ JoshEh, Claire isn't Hayden. Pretty sure Noah would kill any guy that got to second base with Claire.@ SeanWe got heroin, too, that's the Isaac (was that his name?), the painter from Season 1. @ Warren

I think I'm more excited for the preview of next week's episode that goes back in time again but has old school Sylar, hopefully they don't screw this up. I'd like to know why Samuel is so against Hiro helping Charlie (she will now always be Emma thanks to Glee) I had a scheduling conflict last night (Gossip Girl will always outrank Heroes as I find Chuck Bass sexier then Sylar *it is a close race tho*) anyways I’ve learned trying to follow Heroes during commercial breaks is hard.

The Alcohol was never making him weaker he was just making Parkman get blackout drunk so that he could take over for good. I'm not sure how happy I am about because Parkman acting like Sylar, or rather the guy who plays Parkman acting evil seems like it's going to be cheesy.I didn't really understand at all why Parkman's wife returned with his partner. Does she think his being in AA or whatever support group he's in has something to do with being addicted to an actual substance? Why would she think that, she's pretty much the only person he could be honest with about wanting to quit using his power. It was all very confusing.
