EHK for Darwin Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 The old Heroes thread is 10 posts from 400, so a new one makes sense. And I'll tune in tomorrow or the next day no doubt to rip on the show, because I predict it will suck every bit as much as it has since season 2 began. I have no expectations whatsoever for this PoS. And still I watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superkick Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 apparently they got rid of alot of the people responsible for the downward spiral the series is in..which was why im curious to see if such a chnage is going to make any difference.

Mark Verheiden came over from [b]BSG[/b] earlier but although a good writer (he wrote last week's excellent episode) he's not enough to save the show by himself.

Humble Asskicker Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 What he means is that after the first season, Heroes quickly aborted any shred of quality it had, and dove into a massive, exaggerated shit-pool of stink, and then sort of wallowed there, making itself real comfy and all. The overturn of anything that could be termed watchable by anyone but the most hardcore, dedicated, and most importantly, bored genre addict has offered a very convincing lean to the theory that the writers of season one were assassinated and replaced by doppelgangers from the same covert group that had agents replace Harrison Ford, Robert De Niro and Edward Norton.

haLobEnder Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 While I doubt Heroes can win me back at this point I'll probably tune into tonight's episode to see if anything improves with the new chapter. Inevitably when tonight's episode sucks I'll try tuning in again when Brian Fuller returns to the show. Even though I like Fuller's other work, I have little faith he can save this sinking ship. Why I keep giving Heroes so many chances to get good is really beyond me. Maybe it's because I want a live action superhero show on TV that's not Smallville.

I, like EHK, will probably watch it...but (and I'm gonna get reamed out for this one) I'm totally watching The Bachelor tonight and DVRing it, and watching it on my own time. I just couldn't get into the last volume, and I was one of the defenders of Season 2. It's still mindless entertainment..but ehhh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlingzen Bill Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I'll be watching it at some point tonight. I think I will enjoy the new Hiro and Ando thread. It will be interesting to see how Hiro takes being the sidekick. At the end of the last series I really enjoyed the cameo by Seth Green. I doubt he'll be back though. So in this series the Government is going to round up all the heroes and lock them up together. Sounds like a good place for Peter to get too many powers that they'll have to nerf at some point, or a great buffet for Syler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mack Kilimaro Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I'd stopped watching Heroes by the time the last run of episodes ended. I think I gave it four or so episodes the last time. Whatever happened to villain Marlo? I hope he got to do something cool before Sylar ate his brain. Or is he still at large? Anyway, I'm probably going to try to tune back in, just in case they manage to turn things around. Hope springs eternal, I guess. Promos from the Super Bowl last night didn't look too bad, actually. Haven't we been waiting since the show started to get a giant, planned teamup of all of the characters? I think we have. Maybe it won't suck now that we finally get it.

G'Kar Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I'm utterly confused, as I have missed the vast majority of season 3, but I like that head bounty hunter guy. He was really good in OZ. Has he showed up before, and does he have powers (I'm assuming so as he is still walking after being clobbered by a taxi door)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
