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


Recommended Posts

Do you mean in the last episode mate? I think he made Claire call up her West so Peter could take his flying ability in memory of Nathan or whatever.

Yep, this was the ending scene where Peter and Claire are on the rooftop, and Peter asks for a "weird favor."

Season 1 was so epic.

I mean do you remember the feeling the first time you saw future Hiro on the subway, and having it say "To be continued". Or the first time you learned that Nathan could fly!? Or when you saw the words "End of Volume 1" and then the words "Volume 2"!! It doesn't get more awesome than that!

But now :(

Yeah I remember those days. I just bought Season 1 on Blu-ray just to relive how awesome it was. The best episode ever was the "Five Years Gone" one, that was just EPIC.

There appears to be something to that effect because Peter started flying without having acquired the power again. I know, was totally random.

yep as Bobster said he met West because he and Claire are Facebook friends :p

as for Sylar vs Peter....scrap that its Samuel vs Sylar is where its at now! :D

It's kind of a big assumption that we're forced to accept. Claire stated West goes to NYU, so he would be in relatively close proximity, but the timing of everything just didn't fit well because he and Claire were on the roof of a building, then the next time we see Peter he's on the same roof and he can fly. Initially it seems out of place, but the saving grace for this situation is that Peter isn't wearing the same clothes, so there really was no issue except the timing.

4.17 "Art of Deception"

HRG sets his plan to neutralise the Carnival in motion. Seeking to understand his desire to love, Sylar makes a visit to Matt. Peter warns Emma of Samuel's intentions.

Not sure why so many people are so stuck on Future Hiro, the future he came from has been avoided and does not exist, therefor he doesn't exist.

Because this show has slid down every week since those episodes? I hang in hoping for a return to greatness, morbid curiosity, etc... Now I just hope it ends in some quality fashion, and soon.

Hey, I'm right there with you, but bringing in a character from a future that doesn't exist...? That's grasping at straws

And that right there goes against the Grandfather paradox. This is ultimately when the show went down hill. There is absolutely no way to go back in time to change the course of history. By doing so, you alter the reason you went back in time to begin with, therefore he never would have gone to the past in the first place. This is what ****es me off about time travel in film/tv shows. They always screw something up like this. One of the reasons why I actually have enjoyed the way Lost has done it is because they can't change the past. Whatever Happened, Happened. Normally I hate time travel and this is a prime example why.

For them to keep from having a paradox, they MUST write the show where that Hiro still exists and still travels back in time. Remember when "Bad Locke" gets Alpert to tell John he must die to get everyone back on the island. He did so because he needed to end up in that situation, telling Alpert to tell John he had to die. Had that not happened, 'Bad Locke" would never have been able to tell Alpert to tell John he had to die. That avoids a paradox.

Exactly what I was going to put and use an Lost example. It's the classic grandfather paradox

Doc explains it in the BTTF movies :D :D :D

No decision has been made on a Heroes renewal, but NBC prez Angela Bromstad says she’s pleased with the show’s ratings performance at 8 and series creator Tim Kring is “pitching out his view of the next season.”

But they don't have to bring the future Hiro back. Hiro knows about future Hiro so he knows he is capable of becoming him. All they have to do is show Hiro becoming that guy. He doesn't have to be the exact same guy. Basically he just needs to stop being wasted and be bad ass. I think the writers were too scared of his power and tried to respond to the critic's complaints that he is too powerful. Same with Peter I think.

I want him to exist. I want to forget about the last few seasons. I don't remember when it screwed up, but I want it to go back to what it was before that. I know it won't happen, but one can still do a bit of wishful thinking...

The future Hiro thing gave me a sort of Terminator-like vibe. In a good way. They could have shown the future with badass Hiro kicking ass, and made the story follow both present and future or something like that.

Ausiello from EW got a chance to speak with Heroes cast members Robert Knepper (Samuel), James Kyson Lee (Ando) and Jack Coleman (HRG) at the recent TCA press tour.

Each one of them had some interesting tidbits including saying that the Season 4 finale is not really a series ending episode, but could be the last episode for Samuel. Also, Lee hinted at a possible new generation of Heroes.

Would you like the show to reboot with a whole new cast!? This could be one way for the show to save money and stay on for Season 5.

    • This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of by Hamid Ganji While companies like Apple and Samsung have been relatively conservative with their devices’ battery capacities in recent years, Chinese manufacturers have taken the competition to the next level by introducing significantly larger batteries. However, the latest report from China suggests that a local company may already be developing a smartphone with a whopping 14,000mAh battery. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claimed on Weibo that a smartphone maker is developing a device with a 14,000mAh battery. If true, it would be the largest battery ever used in a smartphone and could, in theory, provide up to a week of battery life on a single charge. The leaker did not reveal the name of the company behind the device, but there are some clues. This week, HONOR unveiled the X80 Pro Max in China with an 11,000mAh battery and 90W wired charging support. The company also launched the Honor Win in January, which packs a 10,000mAh battery. HONOR, a former subsidiary of Huawei, has a proven track record of developing smartphones with unusually large batteries. However, other Chinese brands, including Xiaomi, have also launched devices such as the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max with 7,500mAh batteries. Though Chinese users on Weibo also believe the company behind the new battery is HONOR. Interestingly, Digital Chat Station said the device with the 14,000mAh battery weighs around 220 grams, making it lighter than the Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max (233 grams) and slightly heavier than the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (214 grams). The iPhone 17 Pro Max currently packs a 5,088mAh battery in eSIM-only versions, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra features a 5,000mAh battery. Neither device is expected to see a dramatic increase in battery capacity in its next-generation successor. So when it comes to battery comparison, Chinese brands are unbeaten. HONOR smartphones are currently available in the EU, but the Chinese brand has no official presence in the United States due to restrictions imposed by the U.S. government.
    • Qualcomm takes on NVIDIA with new Dragonfly CPU and AI chips by Pradeep Viswanathan Microsoft, Google, Amazon, AMD, Meta, Apple, OpenAI, and several others have been developing their own chips for AI infrastructure. However, NVIDIA still remains the dominant player in the market. Today, Qualcomm announced a major expansion of its data center infrastructure portfolio to better compete with NVIDIA. The new lineup includes the Qualcomm Dragonfly C1000 CPU, Qualcomm High Bandwidth Compute technology, the Dragonfly AI300 inference accelerator, new connectivity products, and custom silicon solutions. Qualcomm claims that this new lineup improves performance per watt, token throughput, and total cost of ownership for AI data centers. The Dragonfly C1000 is a new data center CPU built with Qualcomm’s custom Oryon cores. This chip will feature more than 250 cores, frequencies above 5GHz, and a chiplet-based design. Qualcomm claims that this new C1000 can deliver more than 2x better performance per watt compared to existing server CPU offerings based on specifications. The Dragonfly C1000 will support PCIe Gen 7 with more than 2TB/s of connectivity, along with CXL, advanced RAS features, and both air and liquid cooling. Qualcomm expects the Dragonfly C1000 to be commercially available in 2028. Additionally, Qualcomm and Meta announced a multi-year, multi-generation agreement under which Qualcomm will supply Dragonfly C1000 data center CPUs for Meta’s next-generation server fleet. Qualcomm also announced High Bandwidth Compute, a new near-memory computing architecture designed to address AI’s memory bandwidth bottleneck. HBC Gen 1 will debut with the Dragonfly AI250, which is expected to sample in mid-2027. The AI250 will deliver 133TB/s per card, an 18x increase in effective memory bandwidth compared to the AI200 with LPDDR5X. The new Dragonfly AI300 with HBC Gen 2 is a rack-level AI inference platform from Qualcomm. Qualcomm claims that the AI300 can deliver 4x to 8x better performance per watt compared to existing GPU-based architectures based on memory bandwidth per watt per card. The Dragonfly AI300 is expected to be available in 2028.
