More Season 3 Details (POSSIBLE SPOILERS)
By Sam | July 10, 2008 (7:22 pm)
Apparently journalists Across the Pond have been treated to a preview of Heroes Season 3 by the BBC, and although they were warned not to reveal what they’ve seen (if that was the case, why would they show it? especially to journalists? sounds mildly idiotic to me, but I digress), Digital Spy, one of the groups invited to the showing, gave plenty of hints as to what we can expect. Some we already know, or suspected based on all the promo videos that have been released by NBC so far, but some qualifies as POTENTIAL SPOILERS. As such, only read on if you want to know.
You’ve been warned. So now let’s get to it, shall we?
Some of the things to expect from Heroes Season 3 include the following (for the rest, head over to Digital Spy):
- Nathan Petrelli is apparently dead. We see him rushed to hospital, where resuscitation attempts fail. “There was nothing we could do,” a doctor tells the family. I don’t believe it.
- Looks like Elle (Kristen Bell) is going to be spending a bit of time sparring with Sylar this season.
- Angela Petrelli introduces us to “Level 5″, a housing place for the most dangerous criminals in the world - rapists, arsonists, killers. Presumably this is where the band of Villains escape from.
- Matt Parkman is alone in the middle of a desert screaming for help.
- New Villain ‘The Speedster’ steals something from Hiro and quips, “Gotta run.”
- Is Sylar in league with Angela Petrelli? In one short clip he is seen approaching her from behind and placing his hands on her shoulders.
- Linderman is back with a prophecy of doom. “The second coming is at hand,” he warns.
- And, perhaps the most shocking tease of all: a big bald man, incarcerated in Level 5, shouts: “I’m not who you think I am. I’m Peter Petrelli…”
WOW on the last one. The rest, we kinda already saw from various promos and videos, but the last one? Didn’t see that coming…
Note: For UK viewers, Heroes Season 3 commences at the tail end of September on BBC Two and BBC Three, 8 days after the season’s premiere in the U.S., which would make (if my math is correct) the UK Season 3 premiere September 30.
Update
Also from DS is news that the BBC has aquired “lifetime rights” to the show. Which means if you get the BBC, you’ll be able to watch every single Heroes episode.
Ok, well here we are episode 10. How great compared to last year Huh??
But, alas.....how in the he?? did ...
I dont think all of them should lose therye ability....i dont think the eclipse is anything to do with it ...
no way! i dont think killing clair or hiro will do any good to the story! their part is just ...
What worries me is what may happen to Heroes that we don't see on screen. 
Damn, things look hot now for Season 3. Someone with the ability to SWITCH BODIES switched with Peter Petrelli and is now on the loose? So the Peter we will see is actually the baldy bad guy and the baldy bad guy in the prison is Peter? So maybe that’s why Claire wants to kill him in the future? (say, he got locked for 10 years time)

I like the point Snakehead makes and i think he could be onto something! Whwn i saw the bit that said ….a big bald man, incarcerated in Level 5, shouts: “I’m not who you think I am. I’m Peter Petrelli…”……….i didn’t think of maybes a bad guy has a power 2 swap bodies but i think it could be possible, that or he has Candice’s power absorbed from Sylar & he can’t control it….

MrWithaz, Sylar wasn’t able to steal Candice’s power, though if the Bald Man has it, he may have gotten it some other way, perhaps via proximity like Peter.

Tarot, of course Sylar has Candice’s power! He ate her brain remember? Just because at the time when he ate her brain he wasn’t able to use his powers because of the virus doesn’t mean he didn’t take her power. I think in Series 3 we may see Sylar changing in2 other people a fair bit.

MrWithaz, Trust me, I have it on authority that Sylar didn’t get Candice’s power. Go
here
and
here
Whatever Sylar did to Candice’s brain, he didn’t get her power.

Still wanna tell me he has her power? Just like a bunch try to tell me Sylar got Claude… he didn’t.

To the two posters above, im pretty sure Kring has said Sylar does NOT have Candice’s power.

I just linked the article that says that but for some reason it’s not coming up, even though one of the links is for the overview of that article on this site.

I remember being worried when I was in Uni that I’d miss Star Trek: The Next Generation. I wish you all the luck in viewing and I hope the BBC i-player access is allowed.

thank you finally some resolve on the sylar candice power question i knew he didnt get her power and i was right yay me!! i think sylar has to aquire the ability with his ability in tack and then try it out right after for it to be “stored” thats my guess anyways and i think hes gonna go after molly again cuz now he has a couple more powers on his side so that nothing will stop him this time and of course as we see in the previews hell go after clair and peter will have to save the cheerleader again.

i just had a crazy thought remember how mohinder found those brain surgery books in sylars apartment when mohinder broke in?
wouldnt it be crazy if sylar had to perform a self brain surgery and to use his ability to see how things work find the part of the brain that gives the host the abilities im thinking he did this with the telepath at first and then used his power to do it “hands free” from there on in just a thought on how he got started stealing powers.
eating that part of the brain doest really make sence as it would hit the stomach acid and start breaking down and be digested Molly said he ate the brains but she also called him the boogey man lol she also claimed that maurey was much worse and then matt single handedly took him out or at least locked him in his own nightmare.
