Heroes Ranting is Back...

Okay, it's time again for another rant about how crappy Heroes has become. You know you want it. You've been waiting for it.

Anyway, apparently this week's episode was stealing from Star Wars, and Splash. That's right, Splash.

I'm already annoyed that Peter Petrelli's powers are weak and pathetic now. Come on, he didn't even need to touch people in the past, and he could collect powers, that was awesome! Now, he has to touch someone, and collect their power, but that seems to be totally random. Can he control that? We don't know, because in the plane, he was accidentally collecting them, now he seems to be able to touch people with or without taking powers. Lame, and lazy writing because the show couldn't figure out what to do with the super powerful Peter, the same thing they did with Hiro. Take it away, because we can't write around it.

Hey, wasn't Mohinder's formula supposed to perfect powers? How come it made PP's powers pathetic?

And back to the Star Wars bit. What was with Peter and Parkman with their little raid on that building pulling Jedi mind tricks on everyone? They might as well have been dressed in Jedi robes carrying lightsabers. WTF? We all want to do Jedi mind tricks, but come on.

What about Splash, you ask? Here is the conversation at home while watching:

Husband: "How is Claire breathing under water?"

Wife: "Maybe it's like Splash."

Husband: "Oh, so it's Splash rules... i see."

Yeah, how was this new guy's underwater breathing ability transfering to Claire via kissing? There was no extra oxygen as far as I could see. Not like in that hot James Bond Tomorrow Never Dies scene. Hmm...

Too many plot holes. All the time.

Oh, and the whole Sylar thing. Yikes.

At least maybe it will be interesting when we find his dad, who seems to be as evil a bastard as he is.
