Here be the place to talk about the first episode of the new season. Early word is that the third season starts out very strong, so here's hoping the show is truly back on track.

Whee!
I have no idea what is going on! Claire shooting at Peter, Nathan traveling back in time, to kill his own brother next to himself and Matt.
And now Nathan's dead but suddenly comes back to life.
Whoohoo!!!!!
time to spend a week going through the twop recaps and reading the comic chapters.

Hiro's getting the fine control down pat.
Ando!!!
Hiro, give a lion's share of your stock to your very capable sister.
Cue door knock...
Mr. Muggles!
What foolishness are you up to now, Claire? SYLAR!!!! YEEEK!!!!!!!
CHOP HIM INTO LITTLE BITS!!!!
Crap, she let him have the TK advantage. Or this is a nightmare.
Sadly, he's also got the Iris power of illusion he picked up from whatserhead.... he's gotten too powerful, he needs killing.
What? Why? What?
Why is Maya 1) there, and 2) beating on Mo-Mo with a cricket bat?
Don't make her angry.. blah blah blah..
well, she's gotten better at controlling her temper.
"I just calm down somehow.. by use of my no-longer existent dead brother....
Trust me, Mo-Mo. Bad idea.
And message from dead daddy.
Oh yeah, that's gonna work. Telll the guy with the insatiable curiosity not to open the safe. Hopefully his father knows him well enough to know that's exactly what he would do.
Well, that was easy. "I asked you not to open the safe!" HaH!
She's the Flash, and she's dressed in red. Go figure.
oh Yeah, Nathan already had Adam blood in him.
So Mattie's talking with future Peter.
Yeah, I'm SO freaking lost. and apparently he's got power of illusion, too.

Sylar and Peter are too powerful for effective narrative storytelling.

So we're back with Nathan.
Good Peter or Eveeel Peter?
And he's walking out reight behind us in the middle of the interview. heh.
Chapel. Good place for it.
"I, Nathan, am the Messiah"
Yeah, it would work real well to tell them about your flyng in the house of the lord.
And he's become a preacherman. Ah well.
You'd figure Future Peter would know about the Adam blood.
What, no "save the cheerleader"?
Mo-Mo, this is Sylar's courtesan. Of course, you don't know that..
And why the hell is Molly on an aeroplane?
Great, MORE cross-training power-boosting.
And back to Sylar and Claire.
Oh, freaking great. he's found a listing of everyone.
And she's discovered his nasty telekinesis. If anyone needs some power boosting to deal with him, it's her.

dear claire, the room you were hiding in appeared to have windows, and you appeared to be on the first floor. did you ever consider leaving via one of them and running away instead of running back into the room with the sociopath that has telekenetic powers?
sincerely, artemis.

So they're both in a bad way.
And he's cut her brainstem. Great. not irreperable. yet.
Okay, I giggled at "Claire, that's disgusting"
Great, he's ass laminated her healing power. but she's still alive.
oh, how nice, he put her scalp back on her. Polite of him. And now he's even MORE fucking unkillable.
"You are not like the others" how? Is she different to Adam, even?
Okay, sunshine (clock noises for Sylar in the background) can you be cut up into pieces and stored at odd ends of the planet?
Back to Happy joyful freaky Mo-Mo.
Why is she talking trash about sylar? I so need to go back and read the graphic novels.
Yeah, Mo-Mo, but it might give you a great power like super-hearing or something really useful like that.
Back to the Bros. Petrelli.
No, Nathan, your brother brought you back with the blood of a pretty immortal eurotrash boy.
Okay. Great. Nathan's been godstruck. Somebody hit him with a crowbar or something.
Well, at least the concentration camp future alluded to in the beginning is being avoided.
I WHAT HOW WHAT HWO WHAT I HUH!? Linder-dead-fucking Linder-dead-man?!?!?
And what name is Nikki going by now? And what the HELL is going on?!?!?

Sylar and Peter are too powerful for effective narrative storytelling. i agree. i really really wanted to like this season more than last season, but i'm already feeling confused.

So Mattie got dumped in the middle of the desert? Great
And back to my favorite people.
You just went too FAR into the past, is all, Hiro.
And he's a man of impulse and quick acting.
And he arrives to see Godzilla. No, to see
AAAAAA ANDO SHOOTING DEATH RAYS FROM his HANDS!
SHEEIT, it WAS Godzilla!!!
"I gotta keep Ando from becoming a me-killing asshole!"
I fully sympathize with Hiro here.
And Mo-Mo takes the secret formula. Of course he does. hell, I'd do it.
Mom's a precog? Damn.
OH. So that's where he got it from, with his empathy
Where slash-face Peter came from doesn't really exist anymore.
And back in the tank again.
With a bunch of people, including HRG. Ah, he changed his appearance.
Bonus points for use of "The Second Coming in an apocolyptic piece.
Woohoo! Mo-Mo got supe-supe strength!!! useful, that!
And there's the sigil off the sword on the side of the seatainer.

I WHAT HOW WHAT HWO WHAT I HUH!? Linder-dead-fucking Linder-dead-man?!?!? And what name is Nikki going by now? And what the HELL is going on?!?!? poor hiro doesn't trust ando any more. i had forgotten mama petrelli can see the future. momo's voiceovers still seem pretty pretentious to me. even when he's quoting yeats (guess that's where the title came from).

Oh my, it's SUPER-MO-MO!
But why is he wasting his time with Maya when he could be kissing me?
I missed the first hour (didn't know it was on tonight) and am totally lost, though. Maybe they'll repeat the episode at some point.
I get the impression of multiple timestreams; which I think will be totally lost on many viewers. Will there be a Season 4? I hope so.
Could have done without seeing a certain decapitated head, though. Ick.
GAIL
