* It's still cool. I've stopped watching every episode twice, though that means I pay more attention when I do :) I'm still a week ahead so I can miss one.

* I withdraw some of my earlier comments, some things make more sense than I saw at the time.

* What powers has Syler shown? Strong telekinesis, but what else has he actually used? Was there some way of disappearing?

* Unsurprisingly, I like seeing Claude :) Again, it's a good example of how a power isn't just a power, but reflects someone's whole personality.

* Obviously learning to use things at will is vital training. It hadn't occurred to me before, I'm too used to stories where being taught about your magic is just a black box, you're good at it or not, have a wise mentor or not, and *trying* to understand it is never considered, else the author has to make it's use halfway consistent.

* So Peter can actually absorb powers permanently? That could be extremely powerful if he could do it reliably. And worryingly similar to Syler -- how are their
powers connected?

* Like radiation-man and fire-woman. They're obviously related, but woman's fire is a lot cleaner. Are they very similar powers, one under control, and one not, or just both fire-related powers?

* I like the Haitian more and more. When I first saw him I assumed he damped other people's powers. Then we see he sucks memories out of people. But now, does that give him some immunity to non-mental powers? When he and Bennett ran in, it seemed to suggest he might stop Syler blowing them all up.

Oh dear, and I forgot about that until I was already at a Ceilidh at 9.00 :(

And there aren't any repeats. Should I try ep #2 or wait until you have the DVDs and borrow them?
