Heroes: Company Man

Holy Mothering Hell!

Company Man was a superb episode, this is probably the best episode of the series so far.

You might be glad to know that Ted and Matt aren’t even mind-numbingly boring in it, but the episode really belongs to Jack Coleman as Mr. Bennett he was superlative.

The writers of Lost could take some tips from Heroes here this is how you write flashbacks that are both answering questions the viewers have and posing yet more questions for them.

We get introduced to Mr. Bennett’s boss played by Eric Roberts and I’m pretty sure that he ain’t Linderman as he seemed like he was answerable to someone higher in the Company.

George Takei is back as Hiro’s dad and his presence in the flashback opens up whole new possibilities. I’m pretty sure he’s not Linderman either but is probably the Japanese equivalent. Is Hiro adopted? If not does his father suspect he might develop powers?
