Speaking of the completely LAME finale, someone at work took me to task when I was complaining bitterly that a) the show-down was a boring, disappointing whimper not an epic clash of good versus evil, b) why did Peter need Nathan to fly away? and c) why didn’t Claire just shoot him when she knows he won’t die?
Because — they told me somewhat self-importantly — Peter can only use one power at a time and its not about the fight . . . . .
And now I feel so vindicated — I didn’t miss the memo on the powers thing. It WAS just lame. (You called it, TVAddict!)
“Because we wanted to?” That’s it???
‘I’m not supposed to be thinking about that?’ What’s the hell??? That man seriously doesn’t get the OCD nature of a genre audience, does he?
Doesn’t bode well for season two.

“Because we wanted to” that explains the lamest most boring cliffhanger for a series ever?
