Heroes Volume 3 : Villains

Hayden Panettiere is hot we know this :p

I don't know, if i have to listen to her say "Its payback time, Blueberry style!" one more time I driving the damn car off the road. She voiced Dot in A Bug's Life in case you didn't know and I've had to listen to it 1000+ times as it is my son's favorite movie.

Great thing she is in no adverts over here :p

And it is her hotness that is ruining the show...

If they'd stuck to the "revolving cast" idea that they had originally planed, the show wouldn't be so stale now.

The average viewer wouldn't have anybody they could continually identify with or have a favorite character because they would be bumped off right? I'm not a heroes expert so I don't know the details of the "revolving cast" or whatever, I'm just saying.

Just saw a COOL new Promo on NBC ... with Sylar asking "Are you really my mom"... and Tons of other great stuff.

Can anyone upload this?

If it was shown that Spoiler TV will probably get it later.

Actually this is true in a way, but for Ali not Hayden. Niki was killed and now her twin suddenly appears. Usually that is jumping the shark.

It's true for all the characters, not just the female leads:

the two known Patrelli brothers, Sylar, Noah Bennett, Hiro&Ando, Parkman and Mohinder all could leave their "lead roles".

Some of the current cast could become supporting characters to new characters with new powers that have to solve "their own problem", but some could go and free up some screen space.

They need to inject some mystery and mysterious people back into the show.

Peter and Claire are the two big leads on the show (and some would argue Hiro as well) and I think most people would be quite negative if they either killed them off, or made them supporting characters/less important. And while I'm all for new characters and keeping things fresh, I admit I'd rather have Peter or Claire stories (or Hiro) then new characters that have to be built up and may not pan out at all in the end anyway. Though I will admit, if Claire doesn't get some backbone soon, I may change my mind :D

Now that we've all got used to the show it's nowhere near as interesting and exciting as it was back in the first season, when we just discovering the first details about the characters. Like what 'save the cheerleader save the world' meant, what power peter petrelli was, who was HRG and was he a good guy, who is sylar etc..

It's getting a bit formulaic now, with one of the heroes going forward in time and turning up right at the time everything bad is happening then he goes back and says 'we must save the world' then lots of bad guys come up and they face internal issues about their powers etc.

From one of the sneak peeks...I wonder if we will find out who the woman under the sheet is...at first I thought Elle...Sylar obviously took her power as well her being the girl under the sheet!

There are no leads in a show with an ensemble cast. If Peter and Clair are now "the leads" than it's a classic case of breakout characters which means the show is just that much closer to jumping the shark, if it hasn't already.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
    • They said by this time everyone will have flying cars. WELL...
    • A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.
