Heroes

8:27 Can we get back to Hiro? 8:37 Nathan: Thanks for stabbing my hands Pete. 8:45 Peter: Here’s looking at you kid. 8:47 No we need Sylar! 8:48 Can’t Nathan just heal if he is away from Peter. 8:49 Peter you’ve always been a dope. 8:55 Claire don’t be dumb.

Tonight on Heroes, Peter and Nathan take on Sylar in a battle that will decide the fate of everything….until next week’s episode.  Should be exciting as well as interesting, since as I understand it Nathan has been a figment of Sylar’s imagination this season.  If that has you mystified too,...

8:01 Let Hiro in! 8:03 Claire is so boring. 8:12 Can we go back to Hiro? 8:15 Understatement of the year Hiro… 8:16 Poor Hiro. 8:27 Claire: I WAS FROZEN TODAY!!! 8:38 Claire stop being dumb it doesn’t suit you. 8:40 Nathan has gone bye-bye. 8:41 Sylar is back!

Tonight’s a very special Thanksgiving episode of Heroes and Oliver Mannion will be right here to live blog it for you with all the trimmings. Question, though.  If Sylar eats dinner with the other heroes, will he absorb the turkey’s powers?

8:16 Claire: Just shatter me I’ll be fine. 8:22 No Matt is dieing in Texas. 8:23 Claire: Just give me my foot back. 8:33 Don’t make a deal with the devil Nathan. 8:37 Nathan: I’m just leaving you in the desert. 8:45 Yay! Hiro! 8:46 Claire: Yes I meat Sam, he’s a jerk.

Undaunted by last week’s computer knockdown, Oliver Mannion comes back swinging tonight for some more Heroes live-blogging. Join him at 8 PM Eastern as the fists and wisecracks fly. Throwing popcorn at the screen when Sylar appears to do his worst encouraged.

Oliver Mannion will be back at it again tonight, live blogging Heroes, starting at 8 PM Eastern. Please stop by his comments section and join in. He has a Spanish quiz this week, so if you could leave your comment in espanol, he’ll be muy argreciado.

8:01 Finally Matt and Sylar are Back! Yay! 8:34 Alcohol hurts your brain Sylar. 8:35 Come on Sylar  you can resist! 8:37 Which is why this is like a comic book! 8:45 Keep on fighting Sylar! 8:46 Sylar? SYLAR? SSSSYYYYYLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR! (That's a video game reference.)

8:10 Who am I? I am.. Darkside! That's a comic book reference. 8:16 I want Sylar. I want Sylar. Oh I want Sylar! I'm singing by the way. 8:22 I can't take Peter anymore! 8:34 Peter: We're superheroes dang it! Or we should be. 8:39 Sylar: Sorry, sorry, terribly sorry.

8:00 I think Hiro will appear! 8:01 Yay! Hiro! Ya Da! 8:13 Yes you are going to save the world. 8:20 Nathan: I think I'm Sylar! 8:40 Way to go Hiro! 8:42 Ando: Did I mention Hiro is a time travler? 8:50 No Matt and Sylar. This is annoying. Always leaving out my favorite characters!

8:13 HRG says to Claire, "yeah, I'm okay, I just got stabbed." (He didn't really say that). 8:24 I agree with Claire that does not look like tasty food. 8:45 I want to see Hiro! I wonder if Ema (unlike the other characters intuduced after season one) will stay with us?

The honest liar, the trickster-hero, the good guy who can outwit the bad guys by thinking like them, the rogue king---this is a type that is not just a regular character in contemporary storytelling, he or she is our favorite type of hero.
