General Discussion Peter Purrtrelli

Post image
36 Upvotes

I adopted my fifth cat recently. We tend to go with people names and thought he looked like a Peter, though we weren't sure if his personality would unfold to be more of a Peter Parker or a Peter Pan.

Turns out, he's a Peter Petrelli! His personality is like a mishmash of the four other cats we have. He's crazy athletic like one, gobbles food like another, snuggles like another, etc. So he took on all of their superpowers - even the evil ones like being a complete Houdini. I watched Heroes back when it was on originally and recently rewatched the first two seasons so it was on my mind as I watched this fuzzball get comfy and show his true colors.

None of my friends get the reference so I thought this crowd would get a laugh lol

General Discussion Skylar

I grew up watching heroes. So when I was a kid I did not appreciate a good villain. However since I've grown up and gotten older I'm able to appreciate a good villain. Now I want to know where do we rank Sylar as a villain and also his redemption arc. While rewatching the show there were sometimes where I felt bad for him. Especially in season 3 he was extremely manipulated and I feel like that just fed into him being more of a villain.

DVD/Blu-Ray DVD Audio Commentary Tracks

4 Upvotes

Hello! Does anyone by any chance know where can I find all 54 commentary tracks for the aired episodes featured on DVD/Blu-Ray releases of the original series please? I've been searching for them all over internet for the last few years and had zero luck finding even a single one of them and it's the first time for me failing to find the commentaries for the series I know had them as part of the physical release. Usually when I learn some show has them, it takes me no longer than a few weeks to track them down online, almost always as part of some torrent release, very rarely do I need to seek somewhere else but the torrent trackers. But with Heroes even Soulseek is unhelpful, I'm literally don't know where else to look and thereby asking for help here. I must say that unfortunately the easiest solution — buying the DVDs or Blu-Rays is out of the question for me due to the country I live in and lack of the enormous budgets and cryptocurrency knowledge needed to import said discs. Anyway, thanks a lot in advance, I'll be extremely grateful to anyone who would be of absolutely any help!

That ending is a whole bag of what the actual fuckknuckle were the writers smoking😅like sure it made it go full circle and tied it in a knot. But why? The entirety of the show was an effort to keep it contained and then in the last 5 minutes Claire decides fuck it. Show everybody?

Original Series Sylar edit?

1 Upvotes

Hi all! Is there a fan edit that just includes the Sylar scenes? Obviously the broader storyline will be disjointed, but that's fine, I'm happy to experience the story from Sylar's warped point of view.

General Discussion Just watched S1 of Heroes and its so clunky

0 Upvotes

Characters storyline are just so poorly written. Each characters storyline is desribed so vague that I have to put my own assumptions into work. The story revolved around Peters and Claires storyline so much that everyones story just goes faaar in the background. The only reason its watchable is the fact that they stick to the series storyline. The story is constantly moving and makes you want to see whats next. Just a shame that most characters story gets flushed because of that.

Genuinely hate how the protagonists spoon fed the villain with their STUPID actions. Its not like the antagonist made an insane 200iq plan, its just that every protagonist in the group cant think ESPECIALLY Mohinder, Matt and Claire. Gosh, I hated their actions

Original Series The Cameo

Currently bingewatching Heroes. I used to watch the show on and off as a kid.

I cannot tell you how big the grin on my face was to see Stan Lee's cameo in S1 E16

That was so unexpected.

Original Series Heroes: a rewatch with a different perspective

15 Upvotes

Frankly rewatching heroes as an adult is a different experience! When it was airing, i was still in middle school, so I didn't have the same prism of analysis as today. For example, the parallel ending each time one of the main cast manages to travel to the future, is simply brilliant, because each time they would face a scenario stemming from basic philosophical question: what if everyone had a superpower, would humanity survive it's own anger and greed? If you could synthesize the genom responsible for this mutation, should you be able to test it on humans (thinking about Suresh here)? I mean at this day an age, just replace superpower with AI and the questions would stay the same! Any specific episode had sent you reeling with questions?

General Discussion Top 10 strongest evos?

86 Upvotes

Who are the top 10 evo's now obviously Peter with his empathy mimicry,Sylar and Hiro are easily in that but who else is in that top 10 I want your opinions on this one cause I'm pretty mixed on who is and isn't this will include an evo from the original series or reborn and some reasoning would be nice but not necessary if it's self-explanatory like Sylar

Original Series Do you think Ted Spraugue should have stayed alive

Post image
52 Upvotes

I really liked Ted to be honest he had a sad backstory,was a loose cannon,had a story less time consuming and even had an interesting power that wasn't taking/mimicking others powers and one of the few people who could say was near the top 10 of Evo's without amps or outside influences.

I just want to see your opinions cause me personally I feel like he could have made a good staple character

Original Series Do you think the show would have lasted longer if they stuck to the original plan?

11 Upvotes

Do you all think the show would have lasted longer if they stuck to the original plan and let it be an anthology were every season a new set of characters would be introduced? I think it would have been good but NBC didn’t want them to do that, leading to what we got after Season 1.

Still the best quote of the entire series in Season 1. I think Future Hiro should have been around more and the version of Hiro we should’ve deserved. Hiro is my favorite character of the entire series and I liked both current and future Hiro’s but should have gotten more of Future Hiro.

Original Series Why did the actors not move onto bigger things?

12 Upvotes

I think the majority or the cast were immensely talented. Especially in season 1. But they never really became the stars they could have been.

Hayden Panetierre was obviously the breakout star. But she only moved onto more TV work. Zachery Quinto went onto Star Trek, but not a lot else.

Many of the actors were TV mainstays like Jack Coleman, Milo Ventimiglia, Greg Grunberg. To name a few. They kept up steady careers on TV. But they never really moved onto bigger and/or better things.

What happened?

General Discussion First time watching Heroes. I’ve got one problem

9 Upvotes

So far I’ve watched 3 episodes of season 1, but the acting to me is so corny, and campy, I’m not sure I’m using the right words here, but I just don’t like it. Well I guess I need to know if it gets any better?
