[Cancelled] Heroes Season 4 (Volume 5 : Redemption)


Recommended Posts

I was expecting this carnival gang to be a flop but they are quite interesting after this episode.

Yeah I thought it would be silly stuff but I love them the tattoo lady seems to get naked alot as well :shifty:

So I take it Peter is still gimped? God, why did they have to nerf Peter, he isn't an MMO!

Yep can only take one...I thought the had more then one power at first then he said it was suresh and his spiderman powers he took

Rest of Season!

Yeah he did more of a Jackie Chan move IMO. :laugh:

Rappy, I have to ask, why all the pics of Mio with his shirt off? :p

Overall very good episode. I am wondering whats up with Claire's roomate, I mean they showed NOTHING to would lead us to know what happened.. I mean I wonder if it was Gretchin... When they were playing GH, and they started some weird music, I said oh wow she has some power to.. But of course we never seen anymore of her even attempting to use something.

My guess is that Gretchin is a mind reader and told the roommate to jump.

looking at the previews Gretchen is some kind of stalker but I dont think she has a power!

NBC was fourth, it's two-hour "Heroes" (6 million, 2.7) premiere falling 46% from last year's one-hour opener. The show's demo also dropped from its first hour to its second -- not a good sign. At 10 p.m., "The Jay Leno Show" (5.7 million, 1.8) assumed its third-place position and dipped below a 2.0 for the first time.

What did anyone who was highly critical of the previous season think of the premier? No offense to my buds that already expressed their thoughts, but I want an objective opinion.

I was highly critical of the previous two seasons and this one didn't do a damn thing to change my view of the show. I was bored for the majority of the episode; sadly, the most anticipating thing I was looking for was when Claire killed herself and I was hoping the rest of the cast would go out the window with her.

I haven't really enjoyed Heroes since the first season, but I've continued watching it. This premiere was pretty poor in my opinion. I'm not sold on these carnival people at the moment, but I like that Hiro changed something in the past and it looks like more of that could be happening. I say more time travel and epic battles, less teen drama and try to not have about 10 different stories going on.

It's getting a bit repetitive where they stop hunting for people, then Noah decides he wants to hunt people again and wants to do it with someone who has powers. How many times has this happened already?

I'm not going to give up on it just yet, but I did eventually give up on Prison Break after that went down hill and I'm not far off giving up on Heroes.

It's hard to give an objetive opinion but I feel like sending a big "I see what you did there" to the writers. They're obviously back at showing most of the heroes struggling to have normal lives. Which is kind of what they did in season 1, although in season 1 it was more about finding who they were and stuff like that. But the whole "normal people with super powers" seemed to be a good formula. Then we had .. two fights, kinda, which is something we didnt have in the latter half of season 3, I guess because of budgetary constraints.

Other than that, the premiere did nothing to me. I can't take much more of claire trying to be normal. And when HRG was injured I couldn't help but think "use claire's MagicBlood? again !!!!!" but it didnt happen. They've screwed up character development. Except for HRG and Sandra Bennet (and Hiro and Ando to some extent), very few actors can pull off the whole thing. It's not believable. They've "rebooted" the peter character in the past, and now it feels like they've done it again. So it feels like.. dunno. Some other dude that looks like peter but it's not peter.

And dont get me started on the whole sylar inside matt's head thing. Sylar's 'mind' should be inside his own body. I would buy it if parkman could hear sylar's thoughts when in the presence of Nathan. But sylar actually getting into parkman's head? No way.

I was kind of disappointed with those episodes. The carnival people I found interesting and the Sylar/Matt Parkman thing is cool, but the rest was meh. I was expecting something better, next weeks looks good though.

I agree with pretty much all of your criticisms, but I think the sylar inside of matt's head thing is because when he "wiped" sylars brain some memories/his consciousness has somehow been transferred into matts. I wasn't a fan of them scenes though, he seemed to get angry too quickly.

I don't get those tatoo powers... The prison break guy can manipulate tattoos and the girl has some kind of telepathic control over them?

It seems like we are seeing some kind of power augmenting like Ando's supercharge.

Really? I thought it was a definite improvement over Season 3. but we'll see if this continues.

I liked Season 3 and the Premiere last night but I am easily entertained so probably my thoughts don't count for much :)

@Rob yeah on Heroeswiki they are calling it empathy and that Knepper can control Earth elements hence how he controlled the hand that nearly strangled Edgar.

    • I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance by Karthik Mudaliar Qualcomm is reportedly in advanced discussions to provide custom chip-design services to Chinese tech giant ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. According to a report from Reuters, Qualcomm could be involved in designing custom silicon tailored for ByteDance's massive data-center workloads. If it goes through, the deal would make ByteDance one of Qualcomm's early anchor customers for its fastly growing custom chip-design division, For years, Qualcomm was the king of making smartphone processors and modems. The company has also been moving into the PC ecosystem and other formats such as on-device AI for Android XR headsets. However, this particular deal is about Qualcomm's custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). For a platform like TikTok, ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. Generalised hardware is no longer the most cost-effective and efficient route, which is why ByteDance is trying to develop custom Video Processing Units (VPUs). VPUs designed specifically for ByteDance’s algorithmic needs could drastically reduce data-center power consumption and improve encoding speeds at an unprecedented scale. The underlying tech behind these processors is actually from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of AlphaWave Semi, a high-speed connectivity specialist company. By combining AlphaWave’s high-bandwidth IP with Qualcomm’s architectural expertise, the company could begin mass production by the end of 2026, if the talks go through. All this also comes at a time when U.S.-China tech relations have dwindled. Escalating trade frictions between Washington and Beijing have severely impacted the export of high-end AI chips from U.S. firms like Nvidia, AMD, and Lam Research. Yet, the Qualcomm-ByteDance discussions show that U.S. tech companies are still actively seeking growth avenues and are open to doing business with China, where regulators still permit. Reuters notes that the outcome of this deal could be uncertain, and ByteDance might also seek partners other than Qualcomm. via Reuters | Image via DepositPhotos.com
