1. I dunno
When is The Nine coming back? I can't understand the way they do television these days. Very choppy.

2. Bad news... never

Did the show they ran in the place of Lost succeed??? (Daylight I think it was? or daybreak?)

3. Daybreak was canned after two episodes.
Not surprisingly. It looked like a bad cross between 24 and Groundhog Day.

4. And yet Lost still has been off for a million weeks
LAME

5. It comes back in a couple weeks.
And apparently, the writers are planning on how they will end the series. I think that's a great idea, rather than have it turn into a convoluted mess.

7. Yeah, but they say they are thinking of ending it in Season SEVEN
So... 4 more years.

I really like Lost, but, it was getting really choppy.

36. I've learned to be patient.
Still, I don't see it going four more seasons. I would've ventured ONE more. And I unabashedly LOVE the show.

9. I really liked The Nine and I was willing to give Daybreak
a chance although it was a tough concept for television. But it makes me angry to invest time in understanding a complex plot only to have the whole thing canned after a few weeks. How do they expect anything to ever get off the ground?

Studio 60 is much fluffier- seems like they make it up as they go along- but its not cancelled yet is it?

12. I love Studio 60
It has depth, which I think may be part of the problem

14. Depth?
It has actors I love and snappy dialogue which refers to comtemporary issues, but I honestly don't find much depth. They don't stay in one place long enough to create depth. Lots of speed, though.

15. I disagree
I think the storylines have possibly TOO MUCH depth for most people.

Dammit now you pissed me off, I'm putting you on atomic ignore

:rofl:




KIDDING!!

I'm thinking that since your NOT shallow you don't think it has depth.
I think alot of people find it too deep to watch

6. Our long, national nightmare is finally over.
I have missed this show so much. I've read about a few plot developments and I can't wait to see how everything unfolds.

8. I am dying for tomorrow night to be here!!!
Do you think Peter got radioactive from being in the same holding cell as the guy that gave his wife cancer?

10. Peter is a sponge.
What I've come across is there is going to be a point where Peter learns how to manage all his powers. I think the flash-forward was more of a warning than a premonition.

11. I think Claire's dad is "rogue".
He certainly appeared to be the bad guy, but I think he and the Hatian man are working to keep Claire safe, for now.

13. I am leaning toward him not being bad either BUT
I am dying to know what the Haitian man said to Claire. It was SO great when he started talking!!

16. Yay!!!
I like Heroes more than Lost right now. If Hurley and Nikki switched shows, I'd never watch Lost again. :rofl:

I think Claire's dad is good, but willing to do what it takes. With the Haitian and Eden (RIP), HRG hasn't really needed to do anything evil yet.

20. before the show starts during deal or no deal
there will be a revealing of a new charachter that will come later in the episodes.

The girl super lookslike Mischa Barton in the flash of a commercial, but im not 100%. probably wishful thinking ;)

30. Dang! It isn't her
:(

There was a short teaser during "Deal or No Deal" wherein she goes to visit Ted Sprague (the radioactive character) who's now living in isolation somewhere out west and seems to be trying to master his powers. I came away with the impression that she might be a villain.

24. There are comics for that character over at NBC's site.
Really interesting (and very modern-adapted) power, but I'm not sure I like her background.

29. so i just saw the commercial...
No Mischa Barton, but it looks like just speed her aging by ten years, their almost clones.

i like the wireless access, very fun! half an hour till the show!

34. Or how about George Takei?
He'll be in the next two episodes as Hiro's father.

31. Is Nikki REALLY a hero or just psycho?
She seems to me more like someone with a split personality than a hero.

33. Don't forget her strength and speed
That's her power, the split personality could very well be her way of coping with something she doesn't understand.

35. I'm still trying to figure out how ANY of her story relates to the others.
That arc just seems to be languishing in purgatory.
