Heroes mini-rant

[lady_sarai]

...Seriously, I'm pissed, Heroes. WTF. Claire goes into a comic book store and the cashier says "You're a girl. We don't get many of you in here." And then is convinced that because she is a hot girl, someone is playing a trick on him. There was something about a lap dance involved, but I was too busy gaping to remember the exact quote.

...What the heck! This is not what I expect from you, show. I am very, very, very unhappy about that.

VERY. I have liked you! Fwah! Never mind that Sylar is evil and stupid again and apparently has a mini-me, and I hate that. Never mind that I hate what is happening with the Petrellis. I was okay with these things, because I had some faith that things would turn out.

But I am disappointed, show. Very disappointed.

Edit: Okay, some more thoughts. I know you are not always a great show where women are concerned. I have seen every episode, watched every season. You have many awesome women, who do awesome things.

...Well, you did. You've killed Niki/Jessica, and replaced her with Tracy--I give up on that. Angela Petrelli is awesome! ...Why is there not more of her? Claire and Sandra Bennet are awesome. But Mr. Bennett is stupid sometimes. Daphne--I'm not ready to believe what happened actually happened, and I'm not discussing it yet.

But erg. That is not something anyone would say in a comic book store. Not someone who works in one, at least not in any one that I have ever been in.

I've actually been in a comic book store where something like that happened. Of course, this was also the store where the owner looked at porn behind the counter and could occasionally be heard ranting about the Jews. So that's really more the store's issue than anything else.

Pah. Bad Heroes. I'm offended on behalf of geekdom here. Stop making us look bad!

...Totally agree on Daphne. RAGE.

...Whoa. Of course, I've only been in a handful of comic stores--there aren't many around here, and really, I can only think of two that aren't part of a chain. But the people I've met in them have always been really nice and friendly, so it is annoying on *their* behalf too.

I know! ::sigh:: I think I expect more from the people in charge. Clearly a mistake.

...I am in denial about her. I think we did not see a body, therefore she will show up sometime later and SURPRISE! Speed healing powers! ...Maybe?
