Diageo Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 He also heals though. Does the wound need to have killed him for it to heal? All wounds can kill eventually.

The Mad Monkey Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Another thing about Nathans powers that's been bugging me is, he see's dead people, right, but he doesn't see every person once they're dead. He didn't see either of the probation workers, but you could say his power didn't activate until his first death, Highlander style. But he didn't see the healer girl, the agent or the milk mans dead girlfriend, so it could be he needs to have some sort of personal bond to a person to see their 'ghost' like with his brother and Kelly, but then he saw the teleport guy after he was shot by GTA guy.

Well the first dude "moved on" when the business was settled, so it could be that he only see's people that have unfinished business with him or something along those lines. Like maybe, they choose if they're visible to him.

Daft Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Just to remind everyone, the Xmas episode is on tonight at 10.
Diageo Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Since people just walk around randomly after being dead, unless they have "moved on". It could be that they just fecked off somewhere else.
spirited away Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 (edited) I'll tell you what. This may just be the best thing on TV I've ever watched. Edited December 19, 2010 by spirited away
Diageo Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 That was an interesting ending. Wonder what it will mean for the next season.

dan-likes-trees Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Well I thought that last episode was a bit shit to be honest. I know you're not really supposed to care but there were plot holes big enough to drive a bus through. Reveal hidden contents Missed the first minute or so but how is Simon supposed to know he's superhoodie? The scene with him following Alisha didn't happen in this timeline. And why the hell would anyone trade their invincibility for 20k? Or turning back time? I can understand Alisha's but it felt even more forced than usual Also, Alisha no longer having her power doesn't make future-Simon immune to her powers a few episodes back. So that doesn't make sense either. Least faveorite of the series, it's been mostly brilliant this series though, to be fair. Good moments though. Nathan stamping on the afterbirth was a complete shocker, genuine . Loved all the reactions. And the ending was very good, and very much needed.
Diageo Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Reveal hidden contents What are you talking about. They all know about the guy in the mask. He saved Alisha a few times, and Nathan? He traded it for less than 20k, and it was so he could support the new girl he's in love with. They're stupid kids that want money and to live a normal life, because they think the powers got them into trouble. I don't think this is meant to explain it, maybe a power he gets now from the power trader.

Nathan stamping on the afterbirth was a complete shocker, genuine . Loved all the reactions. And the ending was very good, and very much needed. There's plot holes that go back even further, I'm sure Alisha was watching a news report on future Simons laptop that showed them coming out in the milkman episode, that now never happened. Time travel always leaves plot holes, it's best not to try and make sense of them. As for this episode, I liked it, I thought the whole Jesus thing was great, and the ending obviously opens up lots of possibilities. Alisha will definitely be getting a new power, I predict Simon will be too, as future Simon never became invisible. And there's no saying they have to stop at one power each. I just hope they don't have Curtis go back to save Nicki at the start of the next series, as that'll wipe the possibility of new powers. In fact I hope Curtis gets a new power, the time rewind is a cheap plot device which has only been used once to good effect in the first series.
Daft Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 That was... Reveal hidden contents I hope the next season at least opens with Nicki's funeral. She didn't get a great send off.

Reveal hidden contents They all know about the guy in the mask - but they still have no idea who he is, aside from Alisha. Simon shouldn’t know it’s him, but does, which defies logic. Correct me if I’m wrong. And fuck that, I’m probably like a year older than their supposed to be and there’s no way I’d give up something like that for someone I literally met about a day before. They’re not in love are they, they met about two scene before. I know he’s meant to be impulsive and whatever but he also evidently loves being immortal. Who wouldn’t? Smacks of a shit plot device. Aside from Alisha and perhaps Kelly at a push none of them have ever showed any signs of not wanting or enjoying their powers.

I kind of knew it was never going to tie up very well, but considering it was all in the space of about 6 episodes it’s a shame the writer didn’t make more of an effort to make things vaguely fit.

Diageo Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 Reveal hidden contents Alisha tells Simon that it was him... Also I agree, I wouldn't give my powers away either. But then again, I've never been a delinquent that has to do community service, or been in love.
Daft Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 Reveal hidden contents I think the point of them giving their powers away was them wanting to avoid constantly getting caught up in all the craziness.
Diageo Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 Reveal hidden contents That too. Although other people still have powers now, so they are just powerless against others. But then again, they are stupid.
arnold Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 I loved it, I do hope new girl stays for a bit, her and Nathan were funny as. Reveal hidden contents Do Wonder who will get new powers, Alisha probably will, hers did suck, Nathan will defiantly keep his, Barry will keep his, Curtis will, S3 will go for the Nikki bringing back, unless they just leave her dead, Kelly..i'm undecided, though it wa a good power, I think she'll get a new one Reveal hidden contents Getting sucked off while they all just go off on him, best moment in the show, couldn't stop laughing
ReZourceman Posted December 20, 2010 Author Posted December 20, 2010 arnold, I would personally be very surprised if Reveal hidden contents All of them didn't get new powers. They all said that they could have whatever they wanted. Alisha isn't for certain, Simon probably won't as he's come out of his shell, Curtis can't, Natahan might...blah blah. Nathans girl was awesome. Great ending. <3
arnold Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 I forgot about the old Jewish guy..Ok Reveal hidden contents Curits new power = Super Speed? Goes with his past, Nathan though still I can see him be the immortal guy, who could resist not having immortality
Nintendohnut Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 Reveal hidden contents Well I assumed that Simon would gain some sort of time travel ability similar to Curtis' but not the same, as it would explain how he managed to go back in time and shit I also think Curtis will get something different, Kelly will definitely go with something different as she didn't like hers at all, and Alisha's died with the Jesus bloke so she'll get a different one as well. I'm really interested to see what they actually all get, roll on series three! Why are we spoilering everything? People who read this thread basically all watch the show anyway, right?
Beast Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 I could actually scream right now! I missed it! I've never missed an episode of this before. It's also ironic because this is the one I was looking forward to the most!
The Mad Monkey Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 arnold said: Barry L live how Nathan always calls him Barry.
Diageo Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 Reveal hidden contents Curtis won't just let Nikki die. He'll definitely rewind time. They will all probably have the new powers for one episode until curtis rewinds time.
