Sooo, some heroes are going to be turning to the bad side, whilst some of the lesser-heroes are going to be turning to the light side. I cannot wait for this. Has been 9 months since I last saw a new proper episode (minus the webisodes).

 

Starts Monday 22nd September in the US, and Thursday 25th September in the UK with a 2 hour premiere.

Oh god, that looks massive, I sooooooooooooo cannot wait.

 

I guess Seaon 3 will be shown in 2 blocks on BBC2 as usually in the US go for a 4 to 6 week break over Xmas.

can't wait! shall have to buy Season 2, and somehow watch it all before next Thursday :D

NBC doesn't mess up Heroes scheduleing that much reallly. There'll be a gap from the beginning of December to probably the end of January. Then a break sometime near the end of February/beginning of March. Then again maybe in April. I imagine the BBC will want to show Volume 3 all in one go, and then Volume 4 all in one go, as Volume 3 should be finished before they go on hitaus for Christmas.

Oh God it looks amazing!!

 

Things from the trailer:

 

*It looks like Peter Petrelli is going to get hoodwinked by a shapeshifter :o

*Claire's mum makes a comeback which is cool, pyromaniacs are always welcome :kink:

*Sylar vs Angela Petrelli face-off - will we finally see her power

*Looks like neither Nathan or Nikki died then, that's cool :D

*Does Mohinder give himself powers? :o How awesome!!

Can't wait! :dance:

Well, there's only 11 episodes, at an average length of 42 minutes, so will take you less than eight hours to watch it.

stringing 8 hours together at the moment is difficult :P and finding them seperately isn't as easy :( :lol:

Didn't Heroes used to be on Thursdays?? This is annoying, Wednesday night is like the only night in the week I go clubbing and now I'm gonna have to catch up with Desperate Housewives AND Heroes! :(

Yes Heroes was usually on a Thursday, the easiest way is to stay on BBC2 pace for Heroes as its screend at 9pm and watch DH at 10pm, but the first week its a 2 hour show :cry:

Love Heroes :heart:

 

cant wait till the new season

what are the webisodes? ive not seen em how do i see em? lol

Can't wait for this! I love Heroes so much, and Season 3 looks promising. :D

what are the webisodes? ive not seen em how do i see em? lol

 

They're on YouTube. They were braodcast on NBC.com (network that owns the rights to Heroes) but you can't watch them if you live in the UK. They're OK. You're not missing much if you don't watch the 3 episodes that have aired. It's just that the main character in them is going to be a reccurring character in Season 3, and it sort of introduces him and his power, as well as giving him a little bit of a background.

 

We open four years in the future, with the oft-talked about scene where Future Claire aims a gun at Future Peter and pulls the trigger. Well of course you can’t kill a guy who can stop time. Future Peter does just that and disappears into the past, where …

Future Peter shoots Nathan at the press conference, as seen at the end of “Powerless” in Season 2. His reasons: to stop Nathan from revealing the existence of super-powered people. After shooting Nathan, Future Peter assumes the identity of Present Peter. [We later find out where Present Peter has been keeping himself throughout all this.] Future Peter’s ploy doesn’t fool Matt Parkman, who can read his mind. Unfortunately for Matt, Future Peter teleports him to the desert seen in the promos. As it turns out, it’s more a question of when then where Matt has been teleported. [it is hinted at, I believe, that Matt has been transported back in time. Way, way back in time.] Mama Petrelli later shows up at the hospital where Nathan is being kept, and presumably through the use of her powers, knows that Peter is not Peter.

Where is HRG? In a Company prison cell. Also, that fat guy who claims to be Peter Petrelli that we’ve previously talked about, in the cell next to HRG’s? I think he might just be Peter after all. After all, where has Present Peter been kept while Future Peter is out there assuming his identity?

Maya goes to Mohinder for help. He takes a sample of her blood and seems to discover that powers are not genetic, and can in fact be transferred from person to person, basically power on demand, in a syringe. At the end of the premiere, Mohinder injects himself with the power, and becomes super strong. [The Comic Con episode ends here, with a "To be Continued..."] [Newsarama clears this part up a bit: Mohinder discovers that the powers come from the adrenal glands, and are activated by bursts of adrenaline.]

So what’s up with Nathan? Well, he was shot, then he survived. How? Who knows. He just wakes up in the hospital and heads to a church, where he claims to have been given a sign from God. It appears Nathan now believes he is an angel, sent to do good things. Is this why Future Peter shot him? How was Nathan revived? Later, Linderman, alive and well, shows up at the hospital and tells the Petrelli Brothers that they are destined for great things.

As for Claire and Sylar, it’s “When a Stranger Calls” remake, apparently, as Sylar goes to Claire’s house for her powers. They fight. She stabs him. He of course doesn’t die. Eventually, Sylar captures her, and slices her head open. LITERALLY. He then steals her powers by studying her brain. LITERALLY AGAIN! After taking her invulnerability power, he tells her that she can’t die, and indeed, when he replaces the top of her skull (Holy c**p!), she heals. (Sylar tells Claire, “You can never die, Claire, and now neither can I.”)

So what’s Ando and Hiro been up to? Apparently becoming boss of his father’s empire has made Hiro’s life very dull. He longs to be a hero again. He’s in luck. A lawyer arrives with a videotape from his deceased father telling him that he must safeguard a piece of paper containing some formula that holds the lives of half the world’s population at stake. The paper is inside a safe, where Hiro, unable to stop himself, takes a peek at it. Oops! Daphne, the speedster, shows up and steals the paper! Instead of using his time powers to go back in time to stop her, he decides to go into the future to see the damage losing the paper has cause. Here, Hiro witnesses an argument between Future Ando and Future Hiro, apparently over the missing formula. And get this — Ando apparently uses a superpower (described as bolts of electricity!) to blast Hiro!

Some notes: Nikki (now going by Tracy Strauss, perhaps?) is alive and well, and is mistress to the New York Governor. Is this Bruce Boxleitner’s character? Possibly. [Newsrama confirms that the Governor is indeed Bruce Boxleitner, but it's not made clear if Nikki/Tracy is married to him, or his mistress.]

 

 

Apparent spoilers for episode 1, not seen it yet but MY GOD how many

crappy plot holes

does one show need :\

Yeah those spoilers are largely correct, but the guy whose doing to commentary isn't half talking some $h!t when he's saying about he theories.

 

Anyway, 9 months have gone since I last saw Heroes, and to tell you the truth I was disappointed. Seriously right, they've not learned from the mistakes in the 2nd season. Either the writers are always high, or they have no life, and just sit at home in their rooms reading absolutely tons of comics all day, really, the writing is pretty shocking at times (can't believe Tim Kring employs these people...).

 

But there's some pretty promising stuff in it. All I will say is it's pretty confusing at times, I won't go into much as it'll spoil it, but all i'll say is, watch the 2 episodes without any distractions as it is pretty confusing at times. The 2nd episode ends with possibly the biggest WTF moment i've ever seen in Heroes. It'll make you think a lot, and I seriously hope they touch on it in the next episode or else i'll be annoyed quite frankly... it needs explaining briefly asap. I'll put it in spoiler tags if anyone wants to know what it is, but seriously DON'T READ it if you don't want to be spoiled, as it's a pretty big thing.

Basically Angela Petrelli reveals to Sylar, that he is her son, and thus making him a Petrelli too...
