Heroes Season 4 “Building 26” PT.1 Review; Alex is Aquaman & Lives in Claire’s Closet.

hiro-james2Hi guys and gals! Looks like it’s a new week and with that a new episode of Heroes of Season 4 Fugitives. Today’s episode is called “Building 26” and as usual here is the commentary and review for it! Check it out.

-Looks like the Bennetts are all finally gathered in one room for once, but this doesn’t make it anymore joyful for any of the participants. As usual Noah and Claire are forced to lie to their mother, which ends up angering Claire. And as usual Noah gives her the typical Noah speech, and yes, you guessed it, Claire doesn’t comply. I don’t know about you guys but this never gets old. Ever. (major sarcasm… if you didn’t notice)

– Luke and Sylar are on their fun road trip to the land of Sylar’s father-dom. We all know Sylars going to find his dad, but what will the progression with Lyle be? How is he connected with Sylar? Could they possibly be half brothers? Speculations are awesome. I did enjoy the Serial Killer part of this scene though, this was hilarious.

-Claire goes to the comic book store, where at least I expect to see Seth Green and the Garfield dude, but all we get is this new character we have no recollection of. Though this entire scene seem pretty horrible, it was just too tacky to be believable… even for a show that is based around humans with super powers. I mean really? Did Claire cut her self just to prove a point? That smells like bullsharts to me. I mean yea, showing your powers can be an awesome moment, but this scene felt so forced. And what’s up with Claire’s over reactive facial expression… I know it’s urgent, but is that really required? To me it just seems like maybe she is just slightly taking her acting a little too seriously. As if Claire was trying to look and sound believable, but only ended up looking like she put on a big “PLEASE BELIEVE ME” act. Like I said before, this entire scene is just being rammed down our eyeballs.

-Then in the following scene where Noah shows up to take this Alex away, it seemed even more awkward. Do the writers really want us to believe a person like Noah can’t see through comic book racks? Or be able to hear sounds like people whispering and talking in phones? This entire scene just forcibly treat the viewers as if they were children. I hope the writers aren’t trying to tell the viewers to turn a blind eyes on small details like these, that, in my opinion, should be one of the most important aspect of a successful show. Think Ed Wood the old school director who wouldn’t clean his samll mistakes during the filming of his movies, because he felt his vision would go asunder, which led him to become entitled the world worst director of all time. Small details matter.
