Spoilers Alert for Heroes!!!

Heroes = Orgy of HoYay!

Case #1. Sylar + Mohinder = SadoMasochistic Lurv

When Sylar assumed the name Zane, he and Mo forged an alliance. Viewers, the Hoyay-enthusiasts anyway, easily ignored the plot and focused their energies to the unholy pair. When they were partners, they were hott. But when they were unleashing their antagonistic, erm, desires, they were SIZZLING HOTT.

Mo softly whispers to Sylar, “It’s going to hurt.” And I was awashed with rampant Hoyay cheer.

Case #2. Death of Simore.

Hah. I think the writers offed her character for either three reasons. One, she has become a purty decoration. Two, it is for the time-old cliche “killing off the girlfriend to unleash the powah/angst”. Three, they want to take out the gal so no more gal distractions for the manly hotties. If you get my drift… winkwink.

Case #3. Hiro + Ando = The Bumbling Romance

Oh, come on. Hiro, playing the damsel-in-distress, is saved by Ando. I guess, that’s how they roll. =p

Case #4. Petrellicest = A whole lot of BroYay! chronicles

Milo is hott. Pasdar is HOTT. The two of them together. BOOM! I think that’s the reason why there will be a nuclear explosion in NYC. Nathan and Peter will finally admit their innermost desires.

NathanxPeter is my OTP.

Case #5. Peter + Sylar = Awesome.

You know where I am going from here, right. Their scene in Mo’s apartment is creepy but hott. And with Mo hanging down the ceiling… Voyeuristic. Hmm, kinky!

Okay, Heroes has reached the Hoyay levels where even Smallville can never achieve. Darnit, I have to wait seven more weeks for another feature of the Hoyay chronicles.

P.S. Studio 60 is kinda boring now. I haven’t watched it for a while.

I wuv Heroes. Muchly. (FYI, I do bullets because I care. And I don’t want to write transition sentences.)

Hah. Now, I know why I hated that Eden twit. Because she is EVIL. That hag. Her loyalties are with CreepyEyeglassesDad. She is very annoying. And she kissed Suresh Jr. Ugh. And worse, Mohinder seems to enjoy the lip aerobics. Or was there some tongue action? I must pause and rewind and pause again. Hm. I can’t say. Anyway, it is unforgivable.

Evil!Pixie has done it. I am geared to despise her. Yet this teensy revelation, which I had suspected, clears a few continuity problems. So Evil!Pixie’s bad acting was indeed “acting”. Unless that was really bad acting and the “minor reveal” and her improved performance are pure coincidental. I call the latter since that will motivate me to start that Evil!Picie sucks campaign. I clearly have issues.

Oh, and yes, I stolen borrowed name Pixie from Erin’s recap on TWOP.

The episode is decent. I like the revelations. But it was a little meh for me. It doesn’t help that Studio 60 is not airing and that makes me cranky.

I realized one thing while I was sitting through last Monday’s offering of Heroes and Studio 60 (I saw it yesterday, though). I like Heroes for its plot but I love Studio 60 for its dialogue. My two favorite shows this season cannot be more different with one another.

I am enamoured with the serendipitous intersection of the lives of X-dudes. Even with the problems of continuity. it is genuinely plot-tastic. Oh, and the FX is wonderful. But I have to admit that the dialogue can sometimes be so trite. WTF is up with this season’s catch phrase “Save the cheerleader, Save the world”? It is as if it comes from a very bad zombie movie. Is there a good zombie movie? It is one of the worst lines I’ve heard, ever. And I’m not that picky. I mean, I’ve watched and tolerated quite a few bad anime shows myself, thankyouverymuch.

On the other hand, Studio 60 is filled with wondrous dialogue. It is music to my ears. I love how the words flows out from the actors’ mouths. I love the inflections. I love the rhythm. I guess this is the equivalent of a hard on (pardon me, gentle readers.) for Sorkinese. The series is very character-centric, which I love. The plot can be describe as day-in-a-life-ish, which I don’t mind.

Yeah, I might as well admit this but I love Studio 60 more than any shows I’m watching right now. Including the anime shows. Unfortunately, America doesn’t seem to have the passion for it as much as I do. Come on people, this show is awesome.

I love Monday nights. First, Heroes and the beautiful and luscious Suresh. Then, followed by Studio 60 and Aaron Sorkin’s wit. I admit. I cheat. Technically, I watch the two series on the wee hours of Tuesday morning, right after I come home from work. TiVo is such a fantastic invention.

I am this close to an obsession for Heroes. Remember Gilmore Girl’s resident James Dean Jess? He is away from Rory and he is now a goody-two shoes. He is currently boinking a lovely woman named Simone. Oh, and he mimics the powers of other X-dudes. He’s brother is a pain in the arse.

And there’s Mohinder Suresh. Omigod. That sexy, sexy man. It’s almost illegal that you just want to grab a handcuff and… Did I just mention handcuffs? Ahem. Yes, Suresh and his unparalleled beauty and. Sorry. I can’t think of anything else to say about him. Call me shallow but that man is HOT. Moving on.

The lovely Ali as a schizo Niki and her genius son. Niki’s storyline started to be a tad boring until this last episode. Darn, talk about a case of split personalities. I’m likely to believe that her ex-husband has some kind of X-dude power. And her super strength probably comes from him too.

As far as favorite X-dudes, its a close bid between the immortal Claire and the time-stopping Hiro. The salaryman edges out the not-so-perky cheerleader simply because of Hiro’s natural enthusiasm for the unexplained.

The writing for Heroes can be a bit uneven and bad acting, at times, rears its ugly head. I truly hate that gal in Suresh’s apartment building. No, not because she is coming on too strong to the prof. Of course, I’d occassionally snap back at the television screen. I mean, the poor dude just lost his dad. Down girl. Geez. But the main thing is that neighbor gal can’t act. It’s darn flat. She makes Ted Dunn’s Duncan Kane seem like Oscar worthy.

Although I give the impression that I merely watch Heroes as substitute for porn, I do love the comic-y appeal. It’s mainstream but it’s not. It’s my type of genre.

Tomorrow or whenever, I’ll babble about Studio 60.
