Shades of Gray

Heroes right now is not excruciatingly painful like last year, but I would really like this storyline to end. It's just too meh already.

The Claire story line is OK. It's a vast improvement from where it was, but still it's a bit boring. Claire is a sidestory -- and really what happens to her almost has no relevance to anything -- even if she ends up helping the "Puppet Man" Doyle.

Sylar finally met his father. The scenes were not that bad -- although it did try to go philosophical on us. I wonder what "enlightment" Sylar got from his father. I kinda did not get it -- so I will have to wait for what he does in future episodes.

The big development though is that finally Danko has split up with HRG and Nathan -- and Nathan has been outed as a mutant. Ok, finally, we are nearing resolution.

But just when I thought: Okay, let's keep this tidy, no more surprises so we can transition to next season...

Hiro and Ando arrive in a house and end up baby-sitting... drum roll please... Matt Parkman JUNIOR! Shoot me now. For the love of all that is good, I don't understand why the writers can't see that Parkman has single-handedly destroyed this series. (Okay I'm exaggerating -- but really, the big reveal is Matt Parkman JUNIOR?)

Anyway, new episode in 2 weeks. They've dubbed it: "a classic" -- which means it will probably suck, but I'm still watching.

Milo Ventimiglia is HOT!
