Short Attention Span Review: "Heroes" 3/9

I didn't hate this episode, mostly because I spent most of it imagining that the power play between Denko and Petrelli was an allegory for the struggle between Jeff Loeb and Tim Kring for the creative direction of the show. Denko (or, as I think of him, Loeb) keeps coming up with one crazy idea after another: Making sure Tracy can break free of her bonds, setting up Peter for a hitman, tying explosives to Matt Parkman and dumping him on the Capitol steps. Petrelli (or, as I think of him, Kring) balances this with subversive antics and hidden agendas - and ultimately kicks Denko to the curb.

Maybe I'm just reading too much into it.

John Glover is ALWAYS fun to watch. Doubly so as Darth Sylar.

Oh, look, Hiro and Ando are back. To babysit. Whee?
