Who has two thumbs and loves her shows a lot?

THIS GIRL.



I am so glad I got caught up on this show so I could watch it live tonight. I had already spoiled myself for a lot of it (*squeezes expatiates*) but it was still awesome as all fuck to watch it anyway. Sylar/Mohinder? YES. I'm sorry, the rest of the show was amazing too (Ando! Grandmama Petrelli! Mr. Bennet/Mrs. Bennet! Dead!Simone!) but that whole Sylar/Mohinder scene killed me DEAD. Mohinder getting all vengeful and taking pleasure in Sylar's pain? I have a HUGE bit of a kink in that department, so, you know. I was basically biting my knuckles to keep from squealing. IT IS GOING TO BE A LONG EFFING TWO MONTHS, YOU GUYS.



So, ok, I was a little worried for about the first twenty minutes, because it wasn't holding my attention, it wasn't really grabbing me the way the pilot did. BUT I SHOULD NOT HAVE WORRIED.

MR. KRIPKE: Plz to be taking notes. TWO TIMES we saw Kevin and Tommy strip down. TWO TIMES. AND we got Tommy stripped to his tighty whities, HOSING HIMSELF DOWN. I mean, WHAT. I would like to know how Bobby Moresco and Paul Haggis have concealed the fact that they are actually squealing fangirls for their entire careers. COME ON. With the naked, and the water, and the wrestling and the fighting and the. I can't even list all the awesomeness. IT IS FAR TOO GREAT TO BE CONDENSED DOWN INTO LIST FORM.

I went back and forth on Jenny in this episode. I didn't care much for her in the pilot, she came off as kind of clingy and...I don't know. Desperate? But oh man. So much love when she was scrubbing down the stairs. I thought, you know what? I may actually ship Tommy/Jenny. I KNOW RIGHT WHAT IS GOING ON YOUR WORLD IS UPSIDE DOWN.

But then they slept together and she was like, "That was nice, peace out, yo." I'm sure there is a good reason for her to be such a raging psycho, but I'm sorry. There is no reason in the world that's good enough to kick Tommy Donnelly out of your bed. (I THINK WE ALL SAW THE ABS ARMS CHEST HOLY FUCK DID WE NOT?)

I don't know if she was angsting over her husband or if Tommy hadn't quite warmed up from that cold hose down (WINK WINK NUDGE NUDGE) but come on. NO GOOD REASON.

This show is definitely going to make a Tommy/Kevin shipper out of me, but I'm sorry guys, I still can't let go of Jimmy/Tommy. I ♥ Jimmy like whoa. "...or I'll bite your thumbs off!" ?!?! Best line ever, Y/Y?

I'm pretty sure Kirk Acevedo could not possibly be any hotter. Thoughts? Screencaps? Nicky Cottero comment porn?

Also, was on the fence about Joey Ice Cream before, but am fully on the I APPROVE side. He looked so much different than he did in the pilot, and I am much pleased with the changes. His eyelashes looked really good, is that weird to notice?

And his suddenly showing up and Tommy and Kevin not knowing how he got there? AWESOMESAUCE. It may be a little geeky, however, that both times it happened I got flashes of Peter Petrelli. JOEY ICE CREAM IS A HERO YOU GUYS.

I'm kinda sorta in love with Kevin. You guys who got the Kevin love from the pilot? You were right on. He's like that kind of not too bright puppy that doesn't really know where things are going or what's going on, but he's trotting alongside you all the way, tongue hanging out and tail wagging. AND WEARING AN UGLY JACKET. I'm sorry, Kevin, but you are not ninety yet. Do not be digging on the old man jackets.

I have rambly meta-type thoughts to think, but I have to rewatch the episode. AND OMG WATCH THE NEXT ONE HOW LUCKY ARE WE?
