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?

The latest episode of Heroes was fantastic and things really seem to be heating up.

The development of Peter’s powers has been brilliant. He’s gone from having an interesting but relatively useless power, when it was thought that he could only mimic those powers of people he was in proximity to or had just been in contact with, to being probably the most powerful individual of all now that he can access all the powers of those people he’s come in contact with and possibly the only guy who can possibly stop Sylar.

Hana, Matt and Ted’s confrontation with Mr. Bennett at the end is yet to play out and one wonders what Claire will make of encountering yet more people with powers who like her are very pissed off with her father.

And finally it was a great shame to see Ando go but I predict he will return, his relationship with Hiro and the way they interact is too good a thing to be cast aside.
