So it has people, with powers! Some are heroes. Others not so much. Actually, even the ones that are heroes pretty much suck at it.

Americans can watch it online for free at Hulu. Expect to have to wait about half a day after it airs though.

And apparently Canadians can watch it on Global!

    So anyway, I think the show's actually mediocre and doesn't suck horrifically.

    I thought it's been pretty OK, with the exception of the most recent episode.

    See, I enjoyed the last episode. The only ones I haven't been happy with were the first two but since then I've enjoyed what I've watched. It's not award winning writing, but it's an enjoyable way to kill 42 minutes.

    I thought the last two were all right. I was entertained.

    Indeed. It only has the illusion of sucking horrifically because it used to be better than mediocre.

    Missed the last three episodes, sadly. They're recorded, waiting for me to watch. But I just can't muster up the effort to walk to the living room and play them.

    I think the Sylar/Petrelli thing may have ended up killing the show for me. Also the hunger bit. Hopefully when I get to those last three episodes they're better.

    Oh for fuck's sake. Why is Claire so fucking stupid? Someone needs to dust that unappreciative bitch.

    Healing power doesn't apply to brain injuries.

    Claire has been hit in the head a lot.

    And wow, she was a huge bitch to Elle. I guess because she knows that Elle is hotter.

    I think we've reached the point where Mr Muggles is about the only character who hasn't been a gigantic douche to Claire at some point.

    What was the point of Peter learning Sylar's powers anyway?

    I mean, supposedly he needed them to figure out how to save the world, but that didn't stop him from getting nailed by his dad.

    I just realised that Matt is bugging me like West.

    Didn't they have an interview where they said that they just can't write relationships and will stick away from them? Its fairly obvious they haven't learned their lesson considering the incredibly needy, stalkerish Matt and Daphne.

    The whole Matt/Daphne thing is going to end in disaster and then the writers will probably just drop Daphne from the show and ignore that she ever existed for the next season.

    I like Daphne though, she's actually a cool new character as opposed to the rather lame/annoying ones introduced last season.

    To pass it off to his father so his father gets the hunger and is a villain?

    I don't think they rolled with that though.

    They need to do something with her. All shes done so far is be the worlds fastest messenger girl, she runs then runs and runs some more. And despite her powers EVERYONE who needs to be in a scene will meet her there. I mean Pinehearst isn't in NY is it? Yet Knox got there at the same time as her?

    The Awesome to Horrible ratio has again surpassed 50% in favor of awesome. I can watch this show again.
    Depowering Peter+throwing him out a goddamn window was the best thing.

    Also, I laughed out loud at"THE AFRICANtm" Kocking Hiro the fuck out not once,but twice.

    And no one touched on this, but Nathan's original Affair=Fire, New Flame=Ice. I realized this after I watch it. It was enjoyable.

    And The Puppet Purple Man was the best fucking thing. It was horribly predictable but it was still creepy as all hell.The dude playing him knocked that role out the park.

    She's a teenager. Not too hard to imagine her getting pissed off at that.

    So I just watched the last 4 episodes in rapid succession. The most recent one is definitely the best of them, the others had some pretty cringe-worthy moments.

    Their introduction of THE HUNGEEEEER really got to me though. C'mon, really? Really?!

    Its funny because he went to get that power, never used it for what it was intended and had it removed in about 3 episodes.

    I am also extremely confused why Papa Petrelli decided to KILL Maury before he stole his power?!

    I mean, if you're an evil genius I expect you to be intelligent. Maury / Matt's power is one of the most useful abilities on the show, and would definitely allow Papa Petrelli to know for sure if his cronies were betraying him or lying to him in any way (i.e. Sylar allowing Peter to live).

    Also, Adam dying when Papa Petrelli touched him made me think that his power was sucking the life out of people for an entire episode. Bad writing / directing.
