PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

1. "RE: Save the Cheerleader, Save the Show" |
I'm with ya. They seem to be consumed with how many new characters they can weave in, and how many new abilities they can conjure up. Sure, I'm "slightly" interested in exactly what BurgerWorld chick can do...but I'd trade that in for some story arc in a heartbeat. Sylar, Peter, Hiro...that's who the show should be about and we're getting a whole lot of other fluff. I dunno, maybe it'll all tie in later on and be even better with the hero additions.

2 weeks ago I would have agreed completely with you. Last week about 95%, this week maybe 80%. I have seen some improvement. But there are storylines that I just cringe when I see them...Peter in Ireland Hiro in Japan Claire in California The twins in Mexico Other stories I dig...I am cautious with Syler now that he has hooked up with the Boredom Twins. But Mama Petrelli is the storyline that is bringing it for me. NOLA chick is definately promising. Arkie's Art! He's real and he is looking for you!

With action shows or shows with extended plots your gonna have slumps. Star Trek is good example. Every show can't be fantastic. Gotta build to get somewhere.

4. "RE: Save the Cheerleader, Save the Show" |
Nope, sorry PRE, but I still think this is one of best shows on TV. But then, I don't hate Lost the way everyone else does, either.I like good writing with challenging stories. This show gives it to me in spades. Certainly, it's about 3,000 times better and more interesting than 99% of any other drama on TV. In fact, it's pretty much the only drama on network TV (at least until Lost is back) that I'll stoop to watch. I actually wish it wasn't on network TV because of their failure to stand up for anything different or challenging or that actually expects an audience to think and delay gratification. They'll fvck it up for sure. Eventually. But they haven't yet. "And now the whole nation -- pulpit and all -- will take up the war-cry, and shout itself hoarse, and mob any honest man who ventures to open his mouth; and presently such mouths will cease to open. Next the statesmen will invent cheap lies, putting the blame upon the nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse to examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by convince himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception." Mark Twain

14. "Finally" |
The show had a spark of interest last night. It could be a good story-line that really features Hiro, who has been sorely missed this year. Sure, the End of the World Part Deaux is a little repetitive but so is any Superman comic. Best thing about last night? No Maya and Miguel! Even if that does mean no Sylar. As far as I'm concerned he could have stayed dead and that would have been fine. A new villian can be interesting. I'm still finding myself disappointed this season. I know that they set the bar very high last season, but I'm still not loving it. BUT it is, finally, getting better. I'm a man of my convictions Call me wrong Call me right But I bring my better angels to every fight. You may not like where I'm goin' But you sure know where I stand Hate me if you want to Love me if you can

LAST EDITED ON 10-13-08 AT 12:09 PM (EST)oops, premature postulation. I'm bumping this thread because I could post the exact same things about this season. The tumbleweeds blowing through this forum tell me that I'm not alone thinking this show needs some serious help. This article sums it up pretty well- http://tv.msn.com/tv/how-to-heal-heroes/?GT1=28103

25. "Pro Wrestling" |
That's what this season reminds me of. As a kid, I remember how pro wrestler "characters" were always changing sides. One week Hulk Hogan is a good guy, next week he's all in black looking badass and getting booed. Be one thing to make a hero or two change their spots...but it seems like every.single.character has a brand new view of the world. I turned off my regular recording for Heroes a few weeks back. Missed it last week, and just happened to be able to watch last night. Probably will be the last ep I see. Sad too. I really liked the potential here. Seems they put SO much money and energy into getting a hit show, then appear to panic after season one is over. Or maybe they had TOO much time off because of the strike.
