During his lecture in his first scene, Mohinder states the oft repeated claim that humans only use ten percent of their brains. This is a load of BS.

I thought it wasn't a good idea to have a character jump from a skyscraper to try to see if he could fly. You could have kids copy that.

Noticed some America-centric attitudes in the captions... we have "Madras, India" and "Tokyo, Japan" but the American locations only are identified by city and state. For consistency's sake, shouldn't they have "USA" on the end (e.g. "Las Vegas, Nevada, USA") rather that the US being treated as the 'default' setting?

During his lecture in his first scene, Mohinder states the oft repeated claim that humans only use ten percent of their brains.

He says "It is claimed" or "it is said" rather than actually stating it as fact.

I thought it wasn't a good idea to have a character jump from a skyscraper to try to see if he could fly. You could have kids copy that.

It also has a character putting on a webcam strip-tease... also something it wouldn't be a good idea for kids to try for themselves. I guess the intended audience is people who are old enough to know not to throw themselves off buildings...

Actually, on the sci-fi channel, before the episode began there was a warning that it contained "substance abuse" and something about danger which would appear to refer to Peter throwing himself off the building.

sure.. well I didnt see any warning as I didnt see it on the sci-fi channel. I didn't see any AO sign either...

Consider, Paddy, that this was made for American audiences on American broadcast TV....
