WHAT.

This is a spoiler for Heroes. So, okay, I must put it behind a cut. But you must promise me to read it because I'm flipping the fuck out.

I haven't seen Heroes in weeks, but your enthusiasm makes me almost want to do so.

[trinityvixen]

The second I posted this, I was like, "No, wait, wtf, they're just going to make you cry when they ruin this."

This Monday's episode wasn't terrible. It had one or two moments where I didn't feel like experimenting with bulimia rather than sit through the show. Brian Fuller is coming back, too, and the way he talks about where the show has gone wrong makes me think he might be able to fix some of the problems. (Some, not all; damage done, alas.)

BUT IT IS JOHN GLOVER. This is the guy who makes Lex Luthor look like a NOOB on Smallville. So, yeah, I exploded a little. It will be next to impossible to get over him not being Lionel Luthor, but I'm prepared to go with it until they ruin it and then start burning things down.

[jendaby]

We used to watch Smallville and he was pretty slick evil. Of course, by the time we gave up on that show I was only watching in the hopes that Lex would wear leather pants. LOL. I never got my wish.

But it would be cool if some of the damage done to Heroes were mended.

[trinityvixen]

We can only hope at this point. They added some entirely decent actors this season, and it went nowhere fast. I dunno. SIGH about Brian Fuller, though. Even if he could fix it, I DON'T WANT HIM TO HAVE THE FREE TIME. GO BACK TO PUSHING DAISIES FOREVER.

I haven't looked at the spoiler, but...does this mean I have to catch up on the show?

[trinityvixen]

Hmmm, maybe? I mean, it is related to something else you've watched and that's all I'll say about that. I can say, however, that this is probably an overreaction on my part and they will find a way to ruin this guest star as they have everything else. If you could watch the episodes you've missed on fast-forward or while drinking, then maybe it's worth it. (Those episodes were REALLY bad. Maybe recaps?)

[gryphonrose]

I've missed . . . no, that's not right. I *haven't seen* the last three episodes ("I wouldn't say I'm missing it, Brad."). And I find I just don't care.

John Glover is awesome, and was brilliant on Brimstone, which was a fun show in general. He was a bit too over-the-top-evil in Smallville, though that was the writers' fault and not his. But even he can't save Heroes at this point.

[trinityvixen]

OMG SOMEONE ELSE HAS SEEN BRIMSTONE!?!?!?

No, really, I thought I was the only one. The former roommate used to tease me for liking it, but that was as close as ever I got. Oh, happy day!

John Glover was a tad over-the-top on Smallville, but that show's motto is "Go big or go home," so, yeah. YAY! JOHN GLOVER!

[negativeq]

Dude, I've seen Brimstone. You know that!

[trinityvixen]

Have I been hit on the head recently? Or have we all just like hidden in corners and not spoken about this to one another? WOW!

[arcane_the_sage]

I Gabriell's "real" name turns out to be Ezekiel I will die, auto-rez, and die a second time.

Come on now, you got to remember how he said "Ezekiel" on Brimstone. It was half the fun ^_^

[trinityvixen]

OH OH! SOMEONE ELSE HAS SEEN BRIMSTONE TIMES TWO!

You don't get it. I WAS SURE I WAS THE ONLY ONE. Everyone looks at me as though I've grown another head when I talk about that show. And I watched it before it was even on Sci-Fi. And now I put this up and TWO people have seen it and WHOA.

[arcane_the_sage]

I use to make subtle Brimstone references when talking about Smallville (I guess too subtle). But yes, I use to love that show. My two favorites where the Typhoid Mary eps and the eps with the guy who attacked his while.

[ecmyers]

Wow.

And of course I've seen Brimstone. Just a few episodes on SciFi Channel reruns, but I enjoyed it. Good concept.

[trinityvixen]

Dude! THAT MAKES THREE!

Of course, I should have assumed you'd seen it. You've seen everything.
