A city that was to live by night after the wilderness had passed. A city that was to forge out of steel and blood-red neon its own peculiar wilderness.

Didn't the original run of Heroes have to have Peter and Sylar have their climactic battle off-screen because they were both too powerful to show using their powers like that on a TV budget?

Yes and no.

The leadup to Heroes finale had episodes that were in the future. Where there was a Peter who had full control of his powers, vs a Sylar who had an assortment of powers as well. That off screen battle, with Mohinder's door, at the time I at least wrote off as being understandable, as "obviously" they were saving that payoff for the face off in the final fight of the season in the season finale where they would both be able to show out.

Then that fight turned out to be a dud too, and I should have realized then that Heroes was going to do nothing but disappoint me.

But man. Company Man was sooo good, and to this day is still one of my favorite episodes of Television.


Edit: Also man, I forgot how bad the mid-00s were on Youtube. There are way too many Peter/Sylar fan music videos with terrible music.

It was 5 years later. He spent two years in the house and then ran and won the senate seat.

I mean it probably wasn't mentioned in the show, and was more than likely a mistake, but it is possible.


Also Senator's are congressman. As are Representatives. Both the House and Senate are a part of "Congress"

Weirdly, this is not the common usage in America.

Really? I live in the Midwesst and I've only heard Senator's and representatives used. That's weird.
