Heroes 3.1 - The Second Coming

Is it just me or does it feel like Heroes has jumped the shark? Watching this episode was like someone had pressed the reset button. Everything was too immediate and kinda wtf. Maybe it's the distance between last season's finale and this season.

In a way, I guess it all fits the title.

The Second Coming implies a re-start/re-set through the end of the world. So maybe that Apocalypse that we've been waiting for is finally going to show up.

Heroes 3.2 - The Butterfly Effect

After the whirlwind of plotty chaos that was episode 3.1, I kinda checked out on this one. It was too much too soon and all at once. That damned reset button that smacked of some unacknowledged retcon. We saw lots more of the plot sledgehammer.

( Had the butterfly not flapped its wings, the trajectory of the system might have been vastly different. )

Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles 2.3

We've got all of these models of womanhood wandering around this season:

Sarah, Riley, the hippie Earth mother next door, Michelle, even Cameron and Weaver are approximations of gender.
