This week, Miranda, James, Laura, and Jeff discuss NBC’s Heroes Reborn Series Finale – Chapter 13 – Project Reborn

Wow, what a way to redeem your show! We all loved this episode. Due to the fact it was the finale, and since we had so many voicemails, we are goin to forego the usual format and just respond to the voicemails as they came in once the final episode aired.  We respond to voicemails from Susan in Wisconsin, Shawn in Atlanta, Susan again, Lucy and Parker from Indiana (twice), and Carl in Hawaii, and lastly, an email from Steve in D.C.

Thank you all for your calls, facebook posts, tweets, and emails. It was great to get to know you this season.

Wonderfalls, Pushing Daisies, and Halt and Catch Fire,

Tim Kring says there is more Heroes to be told.  Even if it’s only in a video game:

WE LOVE HEROES!

This week, Miranda, James, Laura, and Jeff discuss NBC’s Heroes Reborn – Chapter 12 – Company Woman

We got the news this week that this would be the only season of Heroes Reborn.  Even though we were told it was a one off mini-series from the beginning, we had hoped that if it pulled in good ratings, they’d renew it.

We get the H.E.L.E. explanation, but too little, too late in Jeff’s Opinion.  (Which can be said for most of the series)

Will Matt meet his maker in the river?

Ren holds the key to level 10.

Emily seems like a totally wasted character, that has zero regard for her parents well being!

Ashes to ashes, Joanne is DUST!  We all LOVED how Luke took care of his wifey!

A fire/trash tornado blows through Union Well H.S. gymnasium.

Phoebe escapes and Quentin turns, again.  Laura is hoping for the return of QRG!

We have 2 voicemails this week, one from Lucy and Parker in Indiana (unfortunately it gets cut short), and another from Susan in Wisconsin (apparently a big fan of James, aka Ray), which also gets cut short. The link requested is Critical Role.  

We also get an email from one of our winners, AlienJL, who is also a James fan. Everybody Loves James.

Company Man was a better episode than Company Woman.

Erica’s backstory was interesting and much needed info, but a rape story seemed like an easy way out. It had so much potential but didn’t deliver.

Contest: Laura has chosen the winners over the Hiatus, so thank you to all of those reviews and ratings posted.  We really appreciate the support and feedback.

This week, Miranda, James, Laura, and Jeff discuss NBC’s Heroes Reborn – Chapter 11 – Send in the Clones

Congratulations to James and Laura for their engagement during the hiatus!  To celebrate they watched 144 hours of a YouTube D&D channel.

None of us seemed to miss Heroes during the Hiatus, but we did all enjoy this episode.  Except James was upset he lost one of his favorite characters, Harris Prime.  It was a very cool death battle scene.

Erica’s “I’m Crushing Your Head” scene didn’t play to well, which leads is off into a Kids in the Hall tangent.

Jeff continues to knit-pick things…i.e. Grunny’s over acting,

and Zach’s shave job.

 

Does Matt have a chance to redeem himself, or is he too far gone?

As pretty as Carlos was,

he and Farrah seemed a tad awkward.  We really liked the backstory for him, but why did they wait so long to tell it?

We also think that Jose seemed to be up to something.  (Emily, too, for that matter)

Phoebe has completely gone off the rails!

But she’s definitely mastered the cool factor of her power.

The Holy Smoke goes up in smoke, but at least he died a hero’s death. And Micah makes his reappearance showing that Mohinder was not Mohinder.

The address of Isaac’s old loft is almost real. 

Luke works on his redemption skills and saves the day,  but why are they bringing along the cargo?

Tommy’s comic is telling HIS story now.  We see that he’s not as stupid as we may have thought.

What’s up with “The Chair”? 

We look ahead to the next episode called “Company Woman” and give our thoughts, theories, and predictions  about it.

Can’t get enough Miranda? Catch her on another podcast; The TV Rewind Podcast.

Contest: Laura has chosen the winners over the Hiatus, so thank you to all of those reviews and ratings posted.  We really appreciate the support and feedback.

This week, Miranda, James, Laura, and Jeff ask Hiro to send us back to November 23, 2009 so we can discuss NBC’s Heroes – Season 4, Chapter 10, Thanksgiving.

We’re looking for some voicemail feedback on how you feel about Heroes Reborn. We haven’t heard from some of you in a while and we’re curious as to how you are liking, or not liking, the show.

Call us: 346-202-HERO (4376).

This was Jeff’s choice for our Heroes Rewind discussion.  His reason? Laura said pick a weird one and this one certainly qualifies!   Plus, he loves Darth Maul!

Less than 3 minutes in and we have our first tangent…must be some kind of a record.  All the talk about pie reminded Jeff about Pushing Daisies starring Lee Pace.  

This episode had us all fairly confused. It was definitely NOT a standalone episode.

This week we dug out the actual recap segment from our Original Heroescast Podcast as recorded by Kim.

Samuel discovers his true potential in terms of his ability.  Because we don’t remember, we hypothesize that he must have sent Hiro back in time to retrieve the film, since we thought Joseph had destroyed it.  We also discuss Hiro’s naiveté being one of the things we didn’t like in the original run.  Since this isn’t a standalone episode, we really never recalled what Samuel’s plan was and, in trying to explain it, probably made it more confusing

This week, Miranda, James, Laura, and Jeff ask Hiro to send us back to December, 2008 so we can discuss NBC’s Heroes – Season 3, Chapter 12, Our Father.

We’re looking for some voicemail feedback on how you feel about Heroes Reborn. We haven’t heard from some of you in a while and we’re curious as to how you are liking, or not liking, the show.

Call us: 346-202-HERO (4376).

This was Laura’s choice for our Heroes Rewind discussion.  Her reason?

Sylar covered in blood, of course.  James now understands why Laura has been such a huge Sylar fan

This week, Miranda, James, Laura, and Jeff ask Hiro to send us back to February, 2006 so we can discuss NBC’s Heroes – Season 1, Chapter 17, The Company Man.

This was an interesting episode as it was more centered on a few of the “Heroes” instead of all of them. In fact, was the first episode that Masi Oka isn’t in, although his character is.

Ted Sprague is NOT Eric Christian Olson or the Neanderthal Man from the old insurance commercials.

    

We all seem to agree that watching the original run episodes has made us want to watch them all again.  They seem to do what the new series hasn’t yet, which is make us WANT to watch the next episode.

The Doctor Who Connection:  Christopher Eccleston and Eric Roberts have both been in some type of Doctor Who incarnation.

 

Christopher Eccelston was the 9th Doctor for the 2005 reboot, and Eric Roberts was in the 1996 “movie“.

James liked “The Little Haitian” and we were surprised by how many times the Half Helix kept showing up.

 

Jeff is alone (as usual) in thinking that Missy Peregryme’s character, Candice, looked like Erica’s Daughter, Taylor.

But that’s not as bad as Miranda forgetting that George Takei was Hiro’s dad!!!  

And thanks go to Laura for letting us in on this little Easter Egg.

Our final thoughts on “Company Man”:  Laura was a bit disappointed since it wasn’t a full cast episode. James thought it was 90% better than what we’ve been watching on Thursdays. Jeff and Miranda really enjoyed it, in fact so much that they both wanted to immediately watch the next Heroes episode “Parasite” to find out what happens, and maybe even the first full season.

Be sure to VOTE for which episode you’d like us to discuss on our last hiatus episode.  You can do that HERE

Contest: Laura will choose winners on December 12th, 2015, so there’s still a bit more time to get those reviews and ratings posted.  We really appreciate the support and feedback.

This week, Miranda, James, Laura, and Jeff discuss NBC’s Heroes Reborn – Chapter 10 – 11:53 to Odessa.

So right off the bat, Laura is not happy with the so called “hiatus” episode.

But Miranda doesn’t care since she got her some Ren and Miko, and Jeff continues to try and throw logic into the mix!

James is a Hiatus NEWB and feels that if he were just a casual fan, he’d probably not be back to see how it all ends.

Matt Parkman brings new meaning to the phrase “giving you the stink eye”

Look into my eyes…

Janice and Matty Jr. are out there somewhere, but are they part of anyone’s plan?

Whatever Erica’s plan is, we all agree that no one should trust her?

Is Phoebe dying by using her power all the time? 

If so, what effect will this have on Quentin?

With Erica trapped in the future, who’s in charge?

– Harris Army (Harrisses, Harri???) The Scientist?

Apparently Harris is a good tipper, and it shows: 

And we see more easter egg nods to the original series, plus a funny Brit. 

Micah is back…well, sort of.  And still no explanation on how the Haitian is alive, because what would an episode of Heroes Reborn be without some mind achingly wibble wobbley timey wimey stuff???

A quick shout out and thanks to @PrimatechFiles for the heads up on the reason the story jumps 7957 years into the future.

Thank you to Jeff in Massachusetts for the voicemail. He gives his theory on Matt’s power and what he’s doing as Sunstone Manor.

Carlos (aka Prince Charming) is trying to redeem himself.

Why is HRG so distrustful of Luke? And who saved HRG?

The Hero Truther group goes in to find Micah, but doesn’t really try.

If a Shogun Warrior strolls through an internet cafe, does anyone see it? Is Ren a construct?

We all agree that it would have been better to binge watch this series.

Contest: Laura will choose winners over the Hiatus, so thank you to all of those reviews and ratings posted.  We really appreciate the support and feedback.
