TV Thursday: Heroes

**SPOILER ALERT FOR ENTIRE POST**

• Welcome back, Ando! You make a fine sidekick and Hiro retrieved his sword with your help. For your bravery, you'll be able to time travel, too.
• I am digging Peter the Great using the invisibility trait to buzz around and pop in/out when you least expect it. But he was shown scalped in Isaac's latest paintings and Sylar was fulfilling that prophesy in the final scene. Will Peter escape? How?
• New Hero: Candice the Shape Shifter. And you thought it was hard enough to keep track of Jessica / Niki.
• OMG, I thought you were smart Part 1: HRG tells his good old scrambled brains of a wife everything so she'll be ready to refresh his memory after the Haitian "went deep." Smart? Sure, until Shape Shifter tricks him by posing as the wife. Not so smart. And what happened to wifey-poo?
• OMG, I thought you were smart Part 2: Mohinder serves Sylar chai tea with two lumps and a splash of curare when he figures out he's the bad guy that murdered his papa. Smart? Sure, until Sylar stops the IV drip, does him some serious damage, and sticks his bloody butt to the ceiling. Not so smart. Classic Friday the 13th...blood dripping down from an slashed victim up above.
• On a day where Liev Schreiber was a guest on Live with Regis and Kelly, doesn't Nathan's destiny to be in the White House with evil support smack of Manchurian Candidate?
• Product placement alert: Dell has taken a thrashing on Wall Street because it failed to anticipate the computer market's shift from corporate PCs bought over the Internet to laptaps sold at big box outlets. This week's episode featured two huge close-ups of a Dell logo on...you guessed it...laptop computers.

I think the show is going on hiatus. Probably until May sweeps. In the meantime, we'll still have Lost and American Idol to discuss on Thursdays.
