Heroes, Prison Break and Journeyman

Holy crap.

Stop reading NOW if you don’t want to know what happened on Prison Break.

Did you stop? If not, you’ve been warned.

It only took 20 minutes to answer the “what was in the box” question, which was a shocking development. I expected a finger, or a hand, or a foot, but not the almighty “Se7en” angle. I had heard Sarah was returning to the show after her pregnancy, but maybe that was a cover story or something. I can’t believe she’s dead, and am still not entirely sure.

Otherwise, the show is starting to flow a bit better than early on. I really felt the anguish of Lincoln when he was so close to saving Sarah and his son but failed.

Heroes is plugging along at a steady, if slightly slow pace. I wish the twins would get the heck out of Mexico already. Three weeks of really nothing happening with them other than learning a bit more about their power. My favorite storyline has to be Peter, but probably because he’s the best thing on the show still. His powers and abilities are flat out awesome if you get into superheroes. There is really nothing he can’t do. I sort of chuckled at the Superman moment when Claire was flown up into the clouds by the new boyfriend.

What about Sylar’s return? What is going on with him? Where is he? And Kensai…Hiro is helping him, making him aware of who he is, but people out there speculating think he’s still alive in the present day. If he heals like that, he might be immortal in a way. Could he be the one killing people? Or the evil one of that little girl’s dreams? The actor who plays him was a pretty evil guy on Alias and he can play someone pretty sinister if he wants, so I can see that happening.

And Journeyman…it’s close to my favorite new show. I really like what they are doing, the bits of information we find out, the way they reveal things to the characters, like the watch at the end that gave away that Dan has seen Olivia. The plots have been pretty good, and keep me glued to the screen. Tonight we found out that Olivia has been doing this for a long time, before she met Dan, and then it stopped while they were together.

I’m going to assume it happened again when she was on the plane and that saved her life. Why do they keep meeting?

As invested as I am getting in the show, I hope the payoff or explanation is good.

Oh, on a side note, Smallville has been okay, the Supergirl aspect hasn’t been as horrible as I thought it might be. But the one question, the most frustrating of all questions remains:

When will he stinking FLY already???

So what did ya’ll think of these episodes?
