Mama Petrelli isn't Sylar's mother; she just has the special appeal...to his "mama's boy"-ness.

Sylar and HRG team-up a bit too chummy; didn't the writers forget the latter hated the former with a passion.

Jesse's sonic scream = Songbird; now Sylar has it.

Knox - the African-American fugitive - can absorb kinetic energy and convert into superhuman strength; classic example: X-Men's supervillain Black King.

Nice to see the Haitian again; Hiro and Ando not so useful this episode.

Firestarter teaches Claire how to fight, more like how teaching to be more ***** than before.

The African has Isaac Mendez's powers. Parkman's screen time seem rather pointless.

Is Zimmermann another one of the Twelve? So Tracy is a created humanoid. I'm holding out for the special chemical bath treatment that can separate Jessica's various personalities into individual forms. Did work for a while with the Hulk and Banner. Speaking of Hulk, Micah mentions him while remembering his mother.

Slightly better episode than the previous two. Fewer cross-cuts between character plots. Peter's one is still boring. Hiro's Batman & Jason Todd exchange with Ando is forced and doesn't go over strong. Firestarter's mentoring of Claire would have worked better with some actual brutality. Wasn't she the scheming witch that tried to scam her baby's daddy for money?

I think they are trying to run this show into full obscurity a la "Lost". It seems like they are trying to develop so many characters and sub-plots that they can't really get any point across in their 60 minute time slot. The pace of this show is like the movie Out of Africa on qualuudes, vicodin, and Jack Daniels. They better fix it fast or I'm outta there.

I was ready to leave it behind last season and I'm still waiting for it to "get good" again. Last night I didn't even sit all the way through.
How can there be such stupid, whiny, incompetant superheroes in the world?
At least get good actors to play them (I'm looking at you, Peter Petrelli).

I watched it and am getting a little bored with the jumping back and forth in time. I'm not being entertained anymore.

Default E4: "I Am Become Death"

I wouldn't call it weird. More being dull. It's like watching a plane running across the runway at full speed but not taking off.

Sylar as a dad is nice. Too bad they wouldn't show Mr. "Fear give me super-strength" vaporized by nuclear Sylar.

Noah is Sylar's son. Who's Noah's mother? I know it isn't Claire.

Hayden's cold-blooded Claire isn't convincing. She looks more mopey than ruthless.

Why can't Dr. Suresh mutate faster? I want to see his version of "The Fly".

Maya is now the "eye candy" chick of the show.

Parkman's future wife is Flash. Has to be for sure. He painted the future, not possible "What If"s.

Peter has Sylar's powers and his hunger for brain dissection & consumption.

No Kristen Bell the past two episodes good.

How is Adam Monroe "the key"? Doesn't make sense considering that Mama Petrelli and Company have locked him up in the past because they couldn't stop him otherwise.
