First episode critique:
Spoiler:
Mohinder's serum = Promecin from The 4400
Mohinder turning into the fly = Jeff Goldblum turning into The Fly
Linderman as Peter's imaginary friend = Head Six as Baltar's imaginary lover
Sylar strutting down Claire's street = John Travolta strutting down Brooklyn street in 'Saturday Night Fever'
Who shot Petrelli? = Who shot J.R.?
Future Peter trying to change the past and fucking up the present = Butterfly Effect (the movie)
Present day Peter in criminal's body = Face/Off (speaking of which, if present day Peter is in fatso's body, how is future Peter still existing, doesn't this fuck everything up, and how can somebody be so stupid as to not consider the butterfly effect when you start dicking around in the past?
I'm hoping Hiro doesn't waste the entire season on another useless side quest, and they'd better come up with a credible explanation why Nikki Sanders is now icewoman with no memories of her past, and holy fuck, is everybody with an ability raised as an adopted child or something? And how did Ando get The Force to get all Emperor Palpatine on Hiro like that

Cameron originally envisioned the Terminator as a small, unremarkable man, giving it the ability to blend in more easily. As a result, his first choice for the part was Lance Henriksen. O. J. Simpson was on the shortlist but Cameron did not think that such a nice guy could be a ruthless killer.
