No way! David Tennet is the best. I will seriously lose interest in the show when he's replaced.

Well, I kinda liked Peter Davison, but I think I'm the only one. He also played Lord Peter Whimsey, I think, and I liked him in that.

Peter Davison will always be Tristan Farnon to me.

My 3 favorites so far are Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, and David Tennet.

Well, I really liked Christopher Eccleston, too.

Did you see the ep where the doctor reunited with Sarah Jane Smith and K-9? I was squealing!

I totally twigged to who Adam was before he showed up. But I'm sure my neighbor heard me yelling at the television screen when Suresh was giving it up to Bob. I never believe that guy is supposed to be a geneticist. He's so stupid!

I had a hunch that it would be him...they spent way too much time on his character to just leave him behind...and yes, I'm being careful to avoid posting spoilers

That was totally awesome; I love the way that in S1 the 'league' of good guys was established... and now in S2 there appears to be a 'league' of bad guys stacking up.

I'm intrigued by the multi-generational aspect. I keep thinking that cute flyboy bf of Claire's may be her brother; or that Adam might be an ancestor. But although powers seem to run in families, I guess specific powers aren't always the same.

BTW, anyone know what power Mrs. Petrelli might have?

I wasn't really into the second season until this week's episode; I thought it was great.

Was Peter's 'remembering' of momma dearest his own amnesia going away or was it his mother breaking it, or implanting memories in his head?
I find it unlikely that two of the older generation of heroes (nakamura and petrelli and bob and maury and adam and linderman) had the same power, though.

Adam and Linderman didn't have the same power. Adam (and Claire) heal themselves. Linderman healed other people/things.

Lord Peter Wimsey will always be Edward Petherbridge to me (80s BBC series that got me into the books)

As an aside - my Mum fell for Petherbridge in that series. She's seen him in practically everything he's done on stage since (Grandad as an old stage hand gets The Stage, the theatrical paper and she keeps track of him that way) and on a guided walk he did of London Theatreland, and Tea at the National (actors talking about their experiences of the National Theatre - with tea and scones thrown in). Anyway I sent a letter to his agent for Mum's 60th birthday, asking if he would sign the enclosed card as she was a big fan. He did, and added a doodle of himself - she has it framed now. What a lovely man.

Baker was my favourite Who as I grew up with him. Tennant is far and away the sexiest Who - any coincidence that the gay mafia chose him?
