Season 1 Plot hole: Chromarti's flying head.
Nov 4 2008, 8:15 AM EST
In both the original movie and one of the first episodes (I believe it was the pilot, but I'm not positive), time travelers state that you can't take technology through time with you. For instance, rather than taking back a weapon capable of frying enemy terminators, the resistance had to send back members to build the individual components. Terminators get around this by being wrapped in skin (I don't know how T-1000's get around it since they have no skin...but whatever), but Chromarti's head is stripped of all flesh when it flies through the time machine. It should've been disintigrated like Summer Glau's clothing. Also, his body was left undisturbed in the ruins of a bank. Yeah...the owners of the bank decided to not to attempt to recover a single ting from the vault/safe-deposit box area.This is a great show, though. I love how they handled the shootout at the end of season one: rather than have a laughable action scene due to low budget (compared to a major film) and TV violence regulations, they just showed the effect of the battle and let the audience fill in the gaps while they focused on the plot instead. The writers of this show are sort of an anti-Michael Bay....and that's a very very good thing. Note: they need more instances of Summer Glau's clothing being disintegrated. 6 out of 7 found this valuable. Do you?

Cromartie's head was supposed to be covered in flesh, but FOX thought it would be too graphic. End of the story.

As for the T-1000, James Cameron admitted there was no explanation and he didn't care.

Works for me....but in terms of Fox's aversion to violence, the scene that surprised me the most was the school shooting scene at the beginning. Heroes has a man torn in half (with exposed entrails) during its pilot, but Chromartie's introductory shootout struck me as much more taboo. I'm glad the wound up including it.
