[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.

    • Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft's aggressive roadmap to deliver a commercial quantum supercomputer by 2029 has now hit a bit of a snag, and it's not because of a complex sub-zero dilution refrigerator, but rather because of a few lines of basic Python code. A new critique published in the scientific journal Nature argues that simple software errors effectively manufactured the breakthrough that Microsoft's foundational research claimed back in 2025 into Majorana-based topological qubits. Topological quantum computing, the path that Microsoft chose for its research, relies on creating and controlling "Majorana zero modes." These are exotic quasiparticles that theoretically offer vastly superior error resistance compared to the highly sensitive superconducting qubits currently being championed by rivals like Google and IBM. However, physically proving you have created these particles requires sifting through massive amounts of complex electrical conductance data to isolate a specific "topological gap." Because of the sheer volume of data, physicists rely heavily on custom software pipelines to process the results. This is where the Python scripts come in. Now, according to the critique, Microsoft’s data processing software contained fundamental programming errors that ultimately skewed the published results. By mishandling data arrays or deploying incorrect logic within the Python script, the software supposedly discarded "noisy" or contradictory data. Which is why it only highlighted the specific electrical measurements that supported the topological-gap claim. The researchers behind the critique argued that this makes the findings invalid, suggesting the heralded "quantum leap" was actually a false positive generated by bad code and not a product of groundbreaking physics. However, Microsoft is pushing back hard against these allegations. The Redmond giant has formally rejected the criticism, saying that it's just a minor anomaly rather than a fatal flaw. According to the company, while there may have been a minor oversight in the data parsing scripts, it does not alter the fundamental reality of their physical experiment. Just weeks ago, Microsoft unveiled the Majorana 2 quantum processor, a milestone so significant that the company boldly accelerated its timeline for a commercial quantum supercomputer from 2035 down to 2029. But the new software allegations reopen an old wound. Microsoft's quantum division faced a remarkably similar crisis when a landmark 2018 paper on Majorana particles was famously retracted in 2021 after independent physicists discovered the data had been inappropriately cropped. That historical baggage makes the current Python-related allegations particularly sensitive. If the foundational math and data processing for the 2025 breakthrough are genuinely flawed, the highly anticipated 2029 commercial timeline could easily be delayed or, worse, cancelled.
    • Because of what they have done to VMware I will never buy anything Broadcom again.
    • AMD releases hotfix for driver install issues on Windows 10 PCs by Taras Buria Earlier this week, AMD released an important graphics driver update. Version 26.6.2 brought AMD FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen Radeon lineup, the RX 7000 series, giving users better upscaling tech that was previously locked to the newest GPUs. However, the driver turned out to be a little buggy, with users reporting installation issues on systems still running Windows 10. AMD quickly acknowledged the bug and today released a hotfix to resolve the problem. The AMD 26.6.3 Hotfix update is now available for download from the official website. Given that it is a hotfix release, it has only one change in its release notes: AMD announced the update on its official X account and added that a WHQL driver update with the necessary fixes would be released next week. Meanwhile, users can apply the hotfix or roll back to the previous driver using the official AMD Cleanup Utility. You can download AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.3 Hotfix Preview Driver from the official website here. It is compatible with all currently supported graphics cards and 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11! I guess we all need a good laugh now and again...
