found this online

America’s favorite hit super-hero TV series threw a nice little Easter egg to its loyal viewers recently. Mohinder Suresh was given a business card by Jack Bennett, and sure enough – it contained “real” information!

Bop on over to http://www.primatechpaper.com/ and try everything out – the curiously worded job interview is big fun, but you can only access it after calling the 800 number on the site and getting an access code by punching extensions and listening carefully. I love this stuff…

Ok, I'm a nerd. I applied for a job after calling the 800 number and getting a code. there is a brief personality test involved. Its kinda cool I love when entertainment breaks the fourth wall!!!! I know I said that before but it is true.

Excellent, we now have an official Heros thread.

This is the first show i can remember being excited about from the get go, and it hasn't dissapointed. Started off slow, but I could see the potential, and now I'm hooked.

Something I can't recall, how did they recatch Syler? I hate when they go 6 weeks between shows, but alas who wants to compete with the bowl games. They could have done a better job bring us up to date, I thought I completely missed an episode.

ON:
on a related topic: Welcome back [from the abyss] NBC!!!

Heroes, Earl, Scrubs, the Office, 30 rock, hell, even deal/no deal! finally got some quality shows back on the air....

i heard that show 60 something w/ matt perry amanda peet is pretty good too. i'm just not into dramatic sitcoms.
Indeed. Earl is the funniest thing on the tube right now, and NBC has put together another Thursday block of good ole fashioned 30 min sitcoms for Thur. night. Time will only tell if it's as strong as the Cosby -> Family Ties -> Cheers -> Night Court line up from the 80's, but it is a strong one.

NBC owns or is owned by the same company as Sci-Fi. They share shows sometimes like that. They did it with Surface last year.

I hope it goes for a couple of seasons at least, but it does seem like it will have to have a finite story line.

She didn't kill herself. She came into the room not realizing that she wasn't going to be able to control him, and he telekinetically yanked her through the glass. Either that killed her directly, or Syler killed her right after that and then "ate her brain" or whatever it is that he does.

So, before I thought it was the Haitian dude was blocking mental powers, but it appears that Clair's step dad (can't recall his name) is the one that can do that. Eden couldn't control him, the cop can't read his thoughts, and Syler couldn't do anything around him.

The Hatian dude was there for all of them, except the one time he went to see Syler after the caught him the first time, and Syler was unable to do anything. Or was the Hatian outside the cell and I just recall?

But then again, what kept Syler from picking up the cot or whatever, and just smashing through everything going for the great escape? Lots of questions, and I doubt they'll all be answered.

Hopefully they know ahead of time if the show gets cancled, so they can wrap stuff up before the final episode.

I don't think the show is getting canceled anytime soon, but I dont' think NBC has any experience with these sci-fi shows and the fans they attract with their attention to detail.

I think these questions will simply fall throught the cracks.

Claire's dad is kinda the opposite of Peter, he can block people's powers where Peter will pick up your power.

I think NBD+C is starting to enjoy pretty good success with this show, they seem to advertise like people are realy anticipating it. I don't think it will be cancelled anytime soon. And who says it has to end after they fix this blowing up the city thing? That can just be an intro story to the whole series. Think of the things taht can come out of all of these people with superpowers! I think we can enjoy a long ride (or lon enough) of Heroes.

(anyone remember 4400?)

Like someone said tho....NBC owns Scifi channel, and USA also, not to mention TNT, but Scifi. Unfortunately, Scifi show Fire Fly is the exact show I was thinking of when I voiced my concern. It went for "summer" break and never came back, while Alias knew at the end of one season that they had to wrap it up in the next season.

Sci Fi fans are CRAZY for details. I think the business card shows NBC's attention to detail too, tho.
