Heroes Episode (26 Feb 2007) - SPOILERS

Cafe Society
1

Last ep of Heroes airs (cite) tonight in Canada. And subsequently on the computer screens of tens of thousands of Americans…

17: 1x17 | Company Man - Official Synopis:
H.R.G.'s past catches up to him as Matt and Ted Sprague, come to Texas looking for answers, and take him, his wife, son and Claire hostage – leading to a tragic, explosive showdown. Secrets are revealed and new threats to the “heroes” are introduced.

Free healthcare, medical marajuana and the season finale of heroes one day in advance, I love this country!

I bloody well hope it’s not the season finale. And it will be on during the boring Best-Corseted-Costumes awards hour of the Oscars so I can channel flip with impunity.

3

hey, you’re right! Its actually the 2nd last ep…oops.

I’m still excited.

4

Are you sure? Spoilerfix.com says the last episode (episode number 21) is supposed to be in April.

5

Here is a second source: http://www.tv.com/heroes/show/17552/episode_listings.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=tabssh&tag=tabs;episodes

6

That can’t be right. Heroes got a full-season order. A full season in the US is 22 episodes.

7

I’d be highly surprised if they didn’t have at least 22 episodes.

I didn’t know it showed on Sundays in Canada though.

8

It usually shows on Monday, the same time as on NBC

9

yeah the sunday-night thing isn’t standard, perhaps that channel is just trying to compete with the awards show.

10

Apparently it’s something that the Canadian company GTN is doing, but not the regular NBC station.

But anyway, have no fear, it isn’t the season finale.

11

That’s back-asswards. Most stations try NOT to compete with the awards show.

12

I think TV.com hasn’t listed the other episodes because they are as of yet untitled. spoilerfix.com has a list of 21 episodes slotted til April, and they also say that the show is scheduled for 22 episodes before the season ends. There’s no way this week is the finale.

13

:smack: I, xiix, do hereby affirm that I totally goofed and that there are lots more Heroes episodes left and that Canadians while still an elite tribe of god’s chosen people will only be seeing episode 17 in advance, not the finale, and not even the second last ep.

I wonder if all this yolk is good for my complection?

14

Dads! Dads everywhere~! And on the roof! Yeah, I’m gonna taunt the Yanks in retaliation for all that time we didn’t get the WB and had to wait until Saturdays to see Buffy.

15

Many answers come to light…finally!

16

Awesome episode!

17

Great episode! Already available over the wire.

Radioactive guy looks just like the Geico caveman.

18

Are we treating this as the official thread of the week? Could we perhaps ask a mod to clear up the title, as to avoid further disussion about this being the season finale, when it’s not.
Anyway. What an excellent, excellent, excellent episode. I was actually, for the first time in a very long time, feeling genuinely excited , riveted, on the edge of the armchair, prone to nailbaiting. The flashbacks really helped to clear up many things, Eric Roberts was a good choice as a slimey guy (he’s gotten old) and I’m feeling really smug since I was the first one (here at SDMB) to predict that Bennet wasn’t evil at all, at least not in his role as Claire’s father.

I didn’t see the Haitian dude mindwiping Bennet though, although in retrospect, it sure makes sense.

And if Mr Zulu is so keen on keeping our heroes under wraps, why does he let Hiro run around, bending time and telling everyone about his abilities?

19

I’ve changed the title of the thread to avoid further confusion or trauma.

20

It isn’t the penultimate episode any more than it’s the ultimate episode.
