      Since I have ended this deep conversation this evening. All I have to say is that I don't watch the show - I hear it sucks - there is other crap out on TV. I just adore a bitch,like..totally.. an 18 year old with a 'tude and a fat ass. She reminds me of the chick, on another show - don't know, who cares, that was in Old School - on the bed - she is wrecked too. Both wrecked, really two blonde bitch ass hos, I mean C Listers- one hit wonders- can't spell it the name - I forget - I'm bored right now - love life though. The GGB is quite a piece of work….Unlike, Denise Richards (6'1, not 5'0 - like the other overrated chicks). That P chick better watch out - next stop - Weight watchers with Alley - who's cool and the chick from flo? Owen Wilson is a loser, as well as Jess the Mess - Manly MEss

      I actually think this season is finally picking up after monday's show. Its still a little boring but I think its getting better. I hope!

      The show is great. ANYONE who managed to watch past that god awful last episode of the first season can't criticise it because you're still watching! If something was going to put you off it would have been that. Prison Break / Dexter / Lost and Heroes are my picks. Throw in a little Curb your enthusiasm.

      all these comments shock me, im in england so am still on Season 1 and im hooked. Hayden is an amazing young actress and stunning but then we havent had all the publicity stunts over here so maybe id be fed up with her like all you guys seem to be. the reaction of Season 2 is a bit of a disapointment for my future Heroes viewing.

      I adore the show - love Milo & i'd turn les for Bell, but I think there are too many characters and too many arcs to get through - 42 mins just ain't enough!
      I get that it's a ploy to keep people turning in for "next week" but they need to start resolving some of the arcs (at least from last season) so we can get the show on the road.
      I think the old people dynamic is really intruiging, but they need to get some sex on- someone with powers has to be able to sustain a relationship instead of all the marriages etc going bust.
      FYI–> the kid who can fly- Claires BF is incredibly creepy and not hot.

      every show seems to have dropping ratings so it's not just heroes. and i still like it, it's my favourite show
      i am bugged about the hiro in the past storyline. it's just not working and it's totally being dragged out. i loved hiro last season but now he just has this crappy storyline
      and what's up with peter taking any opportunity to take off his shirt?? that's just annoying and cheap, enough allready!
      there is definitely a claire-overload this season and i really dislike this guy wes or west or whatever his name is
      the twins couldn't bore me more. you're supposed to wonder what that girls "mysterious" mascara.. oh sorry.. power does but yeah.. i kinda don't care
      but i, for one, am really glad they kept sylar on. he's my favourite character and i don't think there could be another villain like him and they should never kill him off. they just need to give him his powers back so he can kill those annoying twins, that new-orleans girl and claire and then the show is back on!

      Silly Billy (#5) said it - Hayden SUCKS. She is a cute young girl but a horrible actress. Moreover her storyline is awful - I mean, didn't we go through this whole "clash with the Alpha cheerleader thing"? with her already? Boooooooring.

      The other storylines are weak, even Hiro's. His had the most potential but only a slowpoke wouldn't have realized after ten minutes of the new season that Hiro will turn out to be, in fact, his own hero.

      Thanks though, the first season was fun!

      they have introduced too many new characters, and since there are so many characters only a couple get covered in each episode. they go a whole episode and don't show some characters (the MAIN ones) once, and that is annoying. plus it is confusing and they need to go over what happened between the season finale and the season premier because that still makes no sense. i'm gonna continue to watch it but it better get better fast or i'm out…

      I completely stopped watching it after the first episode this season. I can't stand watching that fat gook and his boring storyline. If I hear him say "Mistah Eeesock!" one more time I will blow my head off.

      It's obviously because of the baseball season and some Monday Night football games. Heroes should be right back up in ratings now that the baseball season is officially over (and the Red Sox celebrations are now done). Not much you can do about Monday Night football though, but it shouldn't effect the ratings as much.

      I loved the first season and only watched the first episode of the 2nd season. I was aggravated because the characters don't even get a chance to rest and I don't want to go through the aggravation of what's going to happen next.

      They have divided everyone up! ALL THE NEW story lines are confusing and NO ONE REALLY CARES! We want them all to come back together and save the world. You know like the SUPERFRIENDS HALL OF JUSTICE kinda thing.

      P.S. Why are they trying to save NY from destruction again?…..LAME-O :P

      232

      Heros's is in a sophmore slump–much like Friends Season 2. The over attention from the media has caused backlash, and the show doesn't suck, everyone is just sick of them already. I still love the show, I don't understand why everyone expects action every episode. Sometimes character development is important, and last season was the same way. A big buildup until the last two to three episodes. Everyone needs to have patience, and the show needs to stop running so many ads.

      Its the whole Hiro in the past plotline IT SUXXX…more SYLAR!!!

    34. Latronda Sherill Simmons says – reply to this


      234

      1. Story lines out of nowhere that make no sense. You will lose viewers real fast.

      2. Hiro warped back in time has got to be the single stupidest plot line. We actually groan when they go to that story line. It's boring and just drags on and on.

      3. Peter in Ireland. How he got there is a complete mystery. At this point we don't even care how he got there. They didn't even explain it instead they just jumped to some plot line that alienates him from the entire cast. His character has regressed not progressed. Viewers hate that kind of shit.

      4. The biggest mistake is the pace and complex story lines. It's moving along at the pace fo a snail. The whole black goo out of the eyes girl has got to be the single biggest fucked up thing I've ever seen. Her power is simple. She gets upset, black crud oozes out her eyeballs and people die. Who the fuck thought that one up? Some stoner?

      The only interesting situation is Clair and her flying boyfriend but you can already see where that is headed. Some how he will morph into a bad guy when the time is right. Sent to watch her by someone we haven't met. So the one plot line remains the same which is a huge mistake. Someone is always out to get the so called hero's. BORING! They are fucking up big time.

      They've got the story-line too strung out. No focus.

      The show got totally boring. Hiro back in 1600's Japan is totally boring. I now scan past it. Peter in Ireland, boring, scan past it. Too many new characters. What were they thinking? The only new character is the flying boyfriend, and it's not because I think he's cute since I'm straight. I don't even remember the characters names anymore except for a few. I also don't remember some storylines because most characters are not on every week. I am definetly thinking of giving up on the show.

      Hate to say it, cause I'm a fan but heavy suckage so far this season. 6 episodes in, no cohesive storyline, everyone is STILL seperated, new characters no one cares about. Bottom line is that the season finale last season was a HUGE letdown and they have not yet recovered.

      I luv the show but it carries on. Its time for Tim Kring(Director) to get to the point . Also, I think the show is too complex for a lot of people to follow. Many people in this world suffer from ADHD…cant sit still for a minute. Dancing with the stars/Pushing Daisies…WTF???? Heroes is still the shit

      260

      The show is a crazy mess. Too much weird shit and not enough explanations. Seriously, what the fuck is happening on the show? PP wakes up in a trailer somewhere and can't remember a thing. His bro has a beard now and all kinds of mental illness. Hiro's stuck in the past. The show and characters have so much potential, the writers are just clueless as to where to go and how to drag it out long enough for the season.

      Boooring. Not enough sex ; ) No, but seriously. They need to step up their game badly. I am sick of a lot of the characters, especially Sylar, who is supposed to be this dynamic villain. For me, he is just some dumbass punk who needs a psychiatrist. His 'scary' image is gone. Where is the main antagonist for the heroes?? The characters seem so one-dimensional. What you see is what you get, and that is just plain boring. The plot is also stalled. I am losing interest very quickly….

      It reminds me of Lost. Lost started out so strong, and now fans keep getting plucked off one by one.

      i'm enjoying the new season somewhat,but i'm scared that heroes is going to develop the "lost" syndrome….too many unresolved storylines,too many plot twists,too many new characters…and if you miss just one episode,you're totally confused.plus,there's a lot of older characters(niki/jessica,mohinder,matt,etc)that aren't getting much airtime,while a lot of the focus seems to be on new characters and the goddamn cheerleader!plus,most people probably dvr heroes instead of actually watching it when it comes on.that's what i do-unless heroes starts getting better…i'm watching i love new york first,and heroes second.

      I love Heros I am a faithful watcher of the show, however, the storyline doesn't have enough action in it… All these ppl have powers and they make it lame by not allowing them to utlize them more… Plus, they have Peter not wanting to use his powers right now and he really makes the show cool with everything that he's capable of doing! That is bogus.. But HERO'S FOREVER! Please, get some better writers!!!

      hate the fact they keep bringing new people on. bring a few on each year, but throwing a bunch of new characters at us is crazy. they lost me the same way "LOST" lost me last year. don't even plan on watching that crap this year either.
