It has been brought to my attention that April 8th was Mohinder's 35th birthday,
according to the props people who made his dental records.

god i miss mohinder when he was still like this.

Personally, I tend to blame the writers and miss the days when they realized people could care about Mohinder, he's a stand-up guy. (Well, the last episode sort of did that, but it was so out of nowhere.)

Maybe it really is due to Bryan Fuller's return, maybe he forced the writers at gunpoint to insert some of the original emotions in the scripts.

[daily_sendhil]

I do enjoy the mental image of Fuller holding a gun on the entire writing staff!

But maybe the guy who wrote it just ships Matt/Mohinder.

*looks up*
Rob Fresco and Mark Verheiden...? I cannot say, I haven't watched any of their episodes, except... well, maybe some and I don't remember because it's stupid boring Season 3.

Did you read that interview that Fuller did with scifiwire? I wouldn't be surprised if he did hold a gun to the writing staff, because he was brutally honest about the suckiness of V3. I was especially pleased with the fact that he mentioned Mohinder as one of the characters they did a bad job with. It's nice to know that someone cares.

Also, how the hell did we miss Mohinder's birthday? His birth sign has been the subject of debate among me and ibroketuesay for quite some time. I am having a hard time accepting him as an Aries, though. Mostly because even though I love Arieses, they also make me want to chop their heads off every now and then (both my grandmother and one of my oldest friends are Arieses). I always pictured HRG as an Aries. Hmm.

Oh well, those props people suck at these things. They made Peter a Capricorn. And a woman!

I did read that, and both of the interviews where he pretty much outright dissed the show were so refreshing, when the other people involved are still keeping up appearances and continuing to hype themselves despite all objective evidence like ratings and critical reception. (Not that I blame them, it's their job, but it gets frustrating as hell to listen to Grunny or Pokaski or whoever go "the show is going great! the next episode will be so epic! season 4 whoooo!") And I agree, the fact that he mentioned Mohinder was a pretty positive sign.

I ... I have no opinion what-so-ever on signs. D: I only know I'm a Gemini and Sylar probably is too and that creeps me out.

[cookie_simone]

Nah, don't worry about it, Sylar's totally a Scorpio (no offense to all the Scorpios out there, if you happen to hate Sylar's guts! I have nothing against Scorpios, except that I do not wanna be around them when they throw their crazy tantrums).

[daily_sendhil]

... I'm not sure that's any better, since that means Sylar is my mom, random tantrums and all.

[frozenfoxfire]

Personally I think Fuller isn't the damn key to any of this and needs to stfu, but that's just me. Mo's been a little better since Cold Wars, at the latest. *Maybe* the crazy sweater episode.

[daily_sendhil]

I tend to agree. I admire him as a writer and show-runner, but I don't buy into him being able to save the show. Mohinder has been better characterized, but I think he's still maginalized and I wonder when they can go back to have meaningful connections to people again.

I do like it when he disses the show so I don't think he needs to stfu, though. ;)

[daily_sendhil]

Gah, *when he can, sorry.

[frozenfoxfire]

lol! Very true. The amount of Petrellis and Sylar is just disgusting sometimes - there *are* other characters, and though I am biased towards Mohinder that doesn't excuse all the *other* characters getting ignored too.

Poor guy has no friends. ;-;

HA! Okay, you win this one. :D
