Watched the first two. Looked pretty interesting so far, so will keep with it.

[SPOILER - highlight to read]: Poor Rene though. I liked that guy.

Thoughts so far? I've generally enjoyed it but not feeling inspired by some of the dialogue and plot. But not nearly as dreadful as Season 3 and 4.

Bleh. I've watched up until episode 4 and will have to force myself to finish it. I made the mistake of starting to watch Banshee a couple of weeks ago and ended up binge watching it. Now I find Heroes so tedious... The action is atrocious, the story and pace is boring, the characters insipid, the acting mediocre... So far, apart from Noah, of course, I simply do not care whether anybody lives or dies in this series. Quite frankly, I'd be delighted if Sylar showed up and slaughtered them all. The standards other shows are setting nowadays are just too high. Heroes was revolutionary and inspiring when it first came out, but now it just feels like a bad copy of itself.

I will probably watch the last two episodes eventually, but if I never get around to them I doubt that I will grieve much. Don't want to take away from anybody's enjoyment, but personally I found myself browsing on my phone a lot more than watching the screen.

I am just glad they are done with Kitana girl, so I no longer have to look at her cringe-worthy live-action fight sequences. Honestly, that fight with her against that group of employees in the one episode is one of the most atrocious fights I have seen in a long time. Bad camera angles and bad cutting/editing, which does nothing but highlight that the girl they cast has no clue what she is doing when it actually comes to martial arts.

Agreed, glad she's gone and hope she NEVER returns.

This show isn't very good though and rumors are it won't be renewed for a season two.

also glad katana girl is done... Ando 2.0 wasn't any better with all of his over-acting.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they just run this season to the end and go back to web comics and things after that. I'm mainly watching it for the sake of nostalgia right now. I'm not even sure why I feel nostalgic. Heroes started off well but then went downhill by season 2 and never really recovered.

And I also felt like they were trying too hard to do the Hiro & Ando thing again with Katana girl and her sidekick, but it didn't work at all. Those two were terrible and I often found myself losing interest during their bits of the story.

I didn't think this show would be so negatively received. Is it really that bad?

loved this episode.

This show is at it's best when time travel is involved and when they start bringing the characters together and all the puzzle pieces get revealed. The problem is that the buildup is often slow and involves plotlines that aren't as interesting until you know how they fit within the larger picture.


i had a feeling that the Equinox girl was Claire's daughter, but i couldn't make it work logically due to the age difference... they made it work with the time traveling. i didn't at all suspect the twists involving Nathan... that was good stuff.

Yeah, this episode, and the last one to a degree, have been some of the stronger episodes. Nice to see all the little threads finally coming together, though it is shit that it takes them until episode 7 - 8 before the show starts getting proper coherency. Also, hopefully that flashback is the only bit more we see of Katana girl. laughing

Agreed that this show actually handles time travel a lot better than most. They manage to create a scenario where there are ripple effects etc. without necessarily causing paradoxes (or non-major, ignore-able ones), which makes it work better than a lot of other shows and films. They blend the time traveling elements well so that it fits cleanly into the storyline.

I am glad I didn't get into this show much since it's been cancelled.

Loved the first episode. Gonna binge watch the series.

Rotten Tomatoes gave it low reviews. Which means it's probably awesome, because critics have bad taste..

Nah, it's turning out to not be very good. I have one more ep to go and I don't expect much.

I found the last episode to be disappointing, but that's not too surprising considering there were probably only a few decent episodes out of the whole lot. So I expected this show to be canned after one season. It was already getting stale before it even reached the finale.

It's really a shame. There are so many successful super hero shows on tv right now..I'm not saying copy them, but maybe use them as a blueprint to what works and what doesn't.

The original Heroes series pretty much kickstarted the whole current craze with super hero tv. Damn that was a great 1st season.
