Yeah, it's still good. Nothing like the 1st series though.
Sylar is by far the best character.

Where have Ando and Hiro gone, havn't seen them in a while. Did I miss something???

I think Hiro was found to be too powerful, so they had him neutered. Plus time travel is very expensive.
It is starting to warm up now, as it has more direction, iynwim.

I loved the first series, the second truncated one was frustrating, and this new one if particularly annoying. I'll stick with it, but I'm struggling.

My main problem is that they've turned all the main characters really really dumb. Peter's so stupid I'm surprised his lungs work. And Parkman is practically a vegetable.

Oh and they've really started being lazy with characters use of their powers - they conveniently forget to use their powers if it moves the plot forward.

In summary; it's plop.

Im up to episode 20 "The Cold Snap" it really has grabbed my attention again. I wont give anything away ( for those following the UK schedule, but Rebel has just been revealed!

Good times!
I just watched episode 20 thought rebel was as expected to be, seems to be getting better again although there is only about 4 episodes left so going to be a rush to get anything decent in i think.

Agreed 100%, I'm so bored of the characters, especially Peter, he's possibly the stupidest of the lot.

I'm so bored with the series I wish they'd just can it.

it had so much potential if only they cut the crap out of it...its like each week only 25% of an episode is watchable...

the cheerleader cant act..at all...its like she getting to big for her boots or something...the story lines with her mother and hrg are just a pointless waste...

the whole nathan story line just doesnt make sense...why would he do that...it makes the assumption that he is a complete idiot without any thought of the possible consequences of his actions...

one for the spoiler police...hiro gets his powers back...

It's a trifle weird that he's banging her in real life.

If their going to attempt to tie up any story line from Series 2, then Peter needs to get all his powers back too, so he can kill Nathan and randomly travel back and forth in time to save the other Peter etc.

'Neutering' Hiro was probably a good thing, the time travel thing makes it all to easy to just pop back in time and stop something ever happening. Likewise changing Peter's power so he can only hold one at a time is a good way of getting rid of what had become far too powerful a character. They've sidetracked the other too-powerful character in Sylar with the parent story line, but can imagine once he's back in the thick of it then the Haitan will be their only half excusable way of stopping him when he conveniently turns up alongside HRG to slaughter whoever his eyebrows disapprove of.
The way Heroes goes though, I'm still expecting Arthur Petrelli, Linderman & Mr Sulu to show up again for convenience of moving the story on. They've practically re-invented Isaac into so many other characters its unbelievable, and usually only for the benefit of providing an audience teaser or cliff-hanger.
