Talk:Homecoming (Heroes)

message: I would attempt to upload an image for this episode after it airs, but, since the image I uploaded for the previous episode was replaced, it would seem that my contributions are being made redundant. NorthernThunder 10:12, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Please don't get discouraged - I think you'll find that if your contribution is the most compelling image, it will be the one that gets used. --Ckatzchatspy 10:21, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

message: why did they arrest him
A cheerleader murdered + guy covered in blood = prime suspect.  The cops mentioned something about the janitor reporting a dead cheerleader.  Tazzy531 08:33, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: It's dark on my system, too.  If I hadn't have seen the episode, I'd have no idea what I was looking at. Primogen 20:58, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

message: While the camera pans over the bleachers during the initial teaser (Zach and Claire walk out with lunch, Mohesh does his voiceover thang), one of hte kids is wearing a Battlestar Galactica shirt. Co-exec producer Bryan Fuller worked with BG producer Ronald D. Moore on Star Trek. Too arcane for trivia? David Spalding (☎ ✉ ✍) 00:22, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

message: There is no evidence that NBC or the writers decided to suddenly change Zachs sexual preferences in the middle of the season. The website referenced lists no evidence, just implications. It says "which have repeatedly insinuated, implied and led most viewers to believe that the character is gay" and "how many straight teens love Priscilla: Queen of the Desert, Velvet Goldmine, and  Hedwig and the Angry Inch?". This is not evidence, this is just the opinion of some guy. The reason we do not allow blogs as references is just for this reason. Unless someone can actually find a reliable source that says that NBC or the writers decided to change him, and not just vauge implications, this infomation cannot be included here. dposse 01:11, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Second this. Wikipedia tries to be informative and great way to spread verifible data. However, "Mr. X thinks this" doesn't count. Unless a reliable source can be found stating that the gay/straight issue came down to NBC decision, it shouldn't be stated in the article. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 01:39, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that unfortunately blogs are not normally reliable sources.  We do have a news article from the website of the Pittsburg Post-Gazette, which counts as a reliable source, stating Kring originally intended for Zach to be gay.  However, no one has found a reliable source that Zach was supposed to come out this episode.  If a reliable source is found, then we can discuss adding that information back into the article, whether in Trivia or elsewhere. For more info about editing in regards to Zach's sexuality, please peruse the  Zach's Homosexuality discussion on the main article's Talk page as well as the entry about Zach on the character article. - fmmarianicolon | Talk 04:29, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

text: My bad, it was a link to a second article on the site that had the producer giving confirmation of the change in sexuality. I think there is enough evidence that the rumor should stay in this article, but I won't actively fight it further. --Measure 06:19, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The NBC site itself described Zach coming out in the episode summary for Homecoming, it was changed later.  There are multiple statements directly from Kring about this, I don't know how much more "reliable" you can get.  --Milo H Minderbinder 14:21, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Right now, i believe that we have it firmly established that Zachs sexual preferences were confused at best. I don't think anymore is needed, since his sexuality is not a huge part to the character of Zach, or the Heroes universe. dposse 16:17, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: (Edit conflict, d'oh!)  While Kring is certainly reliable, we need a source for verification.  So far I have been unable to find a news or web article which states he said Zach was coming out in "Homecoming".  If you can find a source, then we can add it back to the article.  If the NBC site stated that Zach was to come out, perhaps you can  use the Wayback Machine or WebCite to get the archived URL for it. - fmmarianicolon | Talk 16:43, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The issue is worth a mention since it has created some controversy, which has been picked up by other publications.  --Milo H Minderbinder 21:38, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not disagreeing that it's worth a mention, nor am I disagreeing that many publications covered the controversy.  The problem is that noone has provided a specific citable source (whether webpage, newspaper article, magazine article, podcast, or TV interview) that specifically states Kring or the writers intended to have Zach come out as gay this particular episode.  Heck, I'll even help put it in one of the citation templates format if you want the help, but we can't do that until we've got the specific source. - fmmarianicolon | Talk 22:20, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I personally don't think it's relevant. Most current students who happen to be  bullied a lot have been accused of homosexuality more times than one may care to count. I, a heterosexual, used to be accused of homosexuality too and I, like Zach, just said that I don't care because I know what I am.Stone11375 13:57, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Zach "coming out of the closet".  

message: Removed the comment about Sylar with "untidy hair and a full beard", as it is later established that Mr. Bennet gave him a haircut, and the amount of time that apparently passes between the episodes is more than enough time for Sylar to grow some facial hair (it was far less than "full beard", it was simply heavy stubble).  Reasoning: the comment was written as if it was a blooper and not deliberate. 203.14.180.97 09:14, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Trivia section

message: The list of Heroes has "Deceased" next to alot of the characters that are alive at the end of this particular episode!
I presume those are spoilers, and of they are I'm annoyed. The individual episodes shouldn't contain information about further episodes. Not without a spoiler warning, at least! Eastlygod 00:07, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that the problem lies in the layout of the list. There are several instances where the fourth column has "deceased" and the first column has the name of a character who is active in the show. However, the "deceased" refers to the names in the third row. Hope this helps. --Ckatzchatspy 00:20, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I See now, thank you. I didn't look too much into the table, thinking it contained spoilers, and I'm a little behind, watching the BBC run in the UK at the moment. Thanks for clearing it up. Eastlygod 11:52, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of Heroes - Spoilers! 

message: I've just been watching this episode on DVD and at approximately 37:36 - 37:39 I think Claire (Hayden Panettiere) say's 'Dad it was terrible, Jack you should...' to Noah (Jack Coleman). She could be saying something about the character 'Jackie' who had just been killed but I think it sounds more like Jack.
I can't be certain though, anyone else notice it? Syko Conor (talk) 02:18, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
