Heroes



It looks a little like they're setting Nathan up to get killed, and if that happens, I'll NEVER watch this show again. That is all.

*after the ep*

Yeah. What I said before. Unless he becomes magically undead.

i was really shocked that nathan got shot. certainly maya would have been a much more expendable character.

I've given up, but then, I was never terribly invested.

Sorry about the suckiness.

I can't believe they'd kill their best character by far. That seems kind of dumb.

I actually said, out loud at the end, "Heroes, you're dead to me now."

I mean seriously? *Seriously*? Freakin' *Maya* gets to come back, but we lose *Nathan*? After a season where he barely got anything to do because we spent all that freakin' time with Maya and Alejandro?

I'm actually really disappointed with season 2 of Heroes. Not enough Peter and Nathan, nicki is barely there, they killed off DL, the twins were super boring (and kind of stupid) and I have no clue what they did with Claire and the stalker boy. Just didn't work so great for me. Hiro's story was okay.

But tonight if Nathan is really dead then this show is probably over for me. The Nathan and Peter stuff was really the only part keeping my interest.

And on this episode I kept wanting to yell at peter to walk through the freaking wall! (I don't even think he tried)

But at least Monica survived I do like her.

LOL, I forgot Peter could walk through walls. I fucking HATE plot holes... sort of like, why didn't they just tranquilize peter when he was about to explode instead of trying to shoot him in the head? And (if Nathan is really dead), why wouldn't Peter just bring him to Claire and have her bring him back?
Plot holes= suckiness. So much can be accomplished without implementing plot holes. It's called being clever... and the genre exceptions of science fiction and fantasy. Come ON, peeps

Heroes as a whole never really grabbed me - too many characters I didn't care about, too much general stupidity central to the plot (has Mohinder *ever* had a single good idea in his life?), and too much hyperpowering up a few characters and thereby unintentionally (?) sidelining others.

This season, they've managed to drop pretty much everything that I *did* like - such as the awesome Mr Bennet and his relationship with his daughter, the general awesomeness of Claire, Nathan, the kicky geek!team Hiro&Ando, and Ando (a sidekick essential to the Hiro plotlines who didn't have a singly superpower and was still indispensable).

I don't really like Claire too much anymore, which is a shame because I used to find her one of the few truly interesting, smart and sympathetic characters. Her boyfriend, I dislike heartily both as a character and as a plot device. Mr Bennet is also looking pretty bad. Ando is AWOL. Hiro is stuck doing... whatever (and I have the impression they got him away from Ando and threw him at a woman specifically to counter the idea that he and Ando might be an item - which I'd actually assumed was implicit canon). And in addition to boring stuff with characters I used to like that now just irritate me, there is even more ultra-boring stuff about characters I don't care a fig about.

*sigh*

It's just a pity, because in S1 I kept thinking that if they just did more with this plotline and this character and forgot about this and that other bit, it could really turn into a good show.

This show had so much potential, but it seemed like everytime there was an interesting dynamic between characters they moved the characters as far away from each other as they could. They really seemed determined to destroy any interesting pairings. I find myself not paying close attention anymore. It was an fascination idea for a show, but without interesting relationships between characters I can't get very invested.

Nathan cannot be dead. *IN DENIAL*

They can't kill Nathan off! They can't. He and Peter are practically the only reason I watch the show. Nathan can't be dead.

*wails*

And was it Mr Bennett who shot him? It looked like him. If it was I'd rather he'd stayed dead, and I love Noah Bennett too.

I don't believe he's dead. I mean, he's related to two people who have super-healing blood, theoretically, and I have an awfully hard time believing they'd get rid of Nathan. On the other hand, they're building up a very disturbing pattern of ending every season with a Petrelli or two dying, which isn't very happy!
