The Morning After: Robo-Version, 11.13.07

What a wonderful tv night last night!

Re Chuck: LOVED Chuck last night! It was one of my favorite episodes so far - the show keeps improving at a steady rate, IMHO. My favorite part was when Chuck's sister went off on Captain Awesome - 'When everything is awesome, awesome becomes just mediocre' (or something like that). The Harry Tang storyline was hilarious.

Heroes - best episode yet. Kristin Bell rocks, I was glad to finally see more of her. I think it was the lack of Mohinder that helped me. And I thought that the Wonder Twins' storyline seriously improved as well. So did Niki's. Finally some decent answers. I want to go back and watch the first part of the season again, knowing what I know now!!!

Who knew that you could take revolvers into clubs in LA? Or that someone would take so much offense at not being danced with. Great episode, but I'd have preferred if they didn't retcon DL's death. We saw him get shot at the end of Season 1. This would've been sufficient.

I TiVo'd both Chuck and Heroes but will not have a chance to watch them until tonight or tomorrow night. My daughter and I watched DWTS and it was ok. I cannot watch to catch up on Chuck and Heroes though!

Chuck was good but Heroes was awful yet again. Such cheesy dialogue and that's how DL died? I mean, that's what the buildup of that story was for, are you kidding me? Plus, Niki right back to the same old problems. These guys love retreading old territory. However, I do like that Adam and Claire's blood can heal people. Heroes, such good ideas, such poor execution.

Heroes had the stupidest death scene since Meg Ryan decided to go for a bike ride in City of Angels.

Please, Mr. Kring, get rid of the Black Eyed Twins. They're not interesting, their powers are more demonic than superpower cool and there is no reason to care for them at all. See the demise of another unpopular couple on another show to get some hints on what to do. I wouldn't mind Sylar burying them alive.

What did we learn from last night's Heroes? Peter is pretty stupid. It took two months for him to realize that he was being held prisoner. So yeah, this episode explained how he got to Ireland but it just wasn't that interesting and far from being shocking. I had high hopes for this episode but it didn't deliver.

Shows we never talk about: "Journeyman" gets better and deeper every week. I'll be sorry to see it go (and I'm sure it will go). And "Samantha Who?" makes me laugh an awful lot. Very Steven Moffaty (thinking of UK "Coupling").

@ Jon88

Glad to hear that Journeyman is improving - I thought it had great potential and I will be happy to watch it on DVD after it is released (it is just way past my bedtime).
