Claire punching the car window. Hott.

Sylar killing the brother, then making out with Maya. Awesome

They keep switching villains back and forth btw the Company and Adam. Meh.

Peter is reminding me of Mohinder. Idiot.

Peter vs Hiro, settling with violence. Its the way the world works =)

I don't like how they don't show people's powers, like Victoria, or the mom Petrelli.

Monica got caught. Haha. Well, she can kick ass, but i would be scared too if there was guns pointed on me.

I do hope that one or more of the main characters will 'leave' the show, making room for new characters.
And i think mom petrelli has some power with her voice, making people remember forgotten stuff, just like peter.
as for that women who dies quickly, she may be super smart for making that deadly virus?

No comments about the latest episode?

Lots of useless crap I'd rather leave out. Quite a cliffhanger, though.

Honestly, the episode made me stop caring. This season has gone from me really liking the show after season one to not carryting about what happens to almost any of the characters. I do for some reason like watchig Claire interact with Kristen Bell, but that's more out of Veronica Mars love than anything else I think. If there was more than one episode left I'd probably just stop watching, but since it's just the one I'll watch the last episode. It's just kind of sad that I've gone from LoveLoveLove~ to "meh, might as well."

I agree soveryshiny. I really liked the first season but this season has been very disappointing, badly written and based upon too many marvel comics storylines (Legacy Virus) and characters like taskmaster, and shadow king (screw you Jeph Loeb) I am happy that there is only one episode left. The producers need to figure out what they want to do with the show and the characters instead of throwing things at the wall to see if it sticks.
They need to get rid of characters and toughen up others because there is too much whining and not enough great characters or truly evil ones on the show. Sylar and Adam bore me. Sylar has no real motivation besides " I want to be special" and mmmm brains good. Linderman was a better character then adam and sylar and having a great actor like Malcolm Mcdowell helped alot.

The next volume might be worse then this one. This was just another bad episode in a bad season. They need new writers and a fecking clue. Did the producers have any damn idea of how they were going to produce this show? I don't think they did.

Saburo · « **Reply #348 on:** December 04, 2007, 02:48:24 PM »

What's frustrating for me (and I am a late bandwagon fan) is that there are pockets of greatness in every 2nd season episode I've seen. But those moments were overshadowed by predictable elements that were probably a result of its own success.

I AM somewhat reassured that Kring was made aware of the series' shortcomings and will get to work on it in the next season. Somewhat...

Dissapointing final battles for the season. Come on Hiro and Peter's and Hiro and Adam's fight should have been somewhat epic, but they sucked. I don't like the conclusion of the finale in any way. It could have been a lot better.

Masa · « **Reply #350 on:** December 04, 2007, 09:17:53 PM »

Alright the season finale wasn't as epic as I expected it to be but it wasn't that bad. My favorite moment was definitely Hiro owning Adam, that shit was ruthless as fuck! I was happy to see Niki dying cause she was completely useless this season. Too bad they didn't kill off her whole family. The whole New Orleans storyline was wack and pointless from the very beginning till the end. Claire's miracle blood is starting to piss me off. Deaths don't mean shit anymore cause people can be brought back. I didn't even care about Nathan getting shot cause they will probably bring him back in the next episode. I sure hope that we won't get more fake deaths during the next season cause that crap is ruining the series.

Overall the season was really average, despite some good moments. The first half of the season was slow as hell and the second half felt rushed. Most of the newbies were boring and they got way too much screentime. Most of the storylines were crappy: Peter's adventures in Ireland were boring, Claire's romance with West was the corniest thing ever, Sylar & The Twins was a waste of time and everything related to Niki & New Orleans made me cringe in pain. The villains were average: Sylar was MIA for most of the season, Adam ain't threatening at all and Parkman's dad got owned way too fast. Basically if Peter wasn't as dumb as a rock, Adam wouldn't have been shit. The Company fell off big time during the 2nd season. At first it was cool that they introduced Elle and Bob but damn, is that all they got? An organization that seems to consist of two people sure is threatening

Despite all the shortcomings, I gotta admit that there were some great moments and one truly great episode (Cautionary Tales). Nathan & Matt Parkman confronting Maury Parkman was classic and so was HRG's death scene. Elle ended up being my favorite newbie and Hiro and especially HRG were the best veterans. Hiro is finally becoming a man and HRG is one of the most gangsta characters on TV right now. I still have high hopes for the next season because Tim Kring seems to acknowledge the flaws of the second season and I doubt he will do the same mistakes twice.

Exclusive: Tim Kring Explains Heroes' "Generations" Finale

Will Nathan (Adrian Pasdar) die by an assassin's bullet? Was Niki (Ali Larter) truly blown to hot, blonde, gorgeous bits? Will Adam (David Anders) spend eternity six feet under? And — say it ain't so! — does badass Elle (Kristen Bell) really have an inner Girl Scout? The Dec. 3 episode of Heroes, the conclusion of the show's second volume "Generations," left us with lots of big questions. Creator and executive producer Tim Kring has the answers. And, whaddya know, he's even sharing some of them!

The fate of Nathan, who was shot during a TV press conference, and of Niki, who may have died in an abandoned building explosion, are "up in the air and will be determined when we come back after the strike," Kring says. "Things are fairly dire for them both." Immortal Adam was teleported by Hiro (Masi Oka) into a coffin buried in the same Japanese cemetery where his father Kaito (George Takei), who was slain by Adam, is also buried. "It's poetic justice to have Adam end up in the same graveyard as Kaito," Kring notes. "We've given the audience no reason to believe that Adam can figure a way to get out of there. The fact that he can live forever makes this the most gruesome of internments. If this happened to any of us, at least we'd know we'd soon have the mercy of death. Not here."

Witchy, bitchy Elle, who wound up saving the lives of Mohinder (Sendhil Ramamurthy), Maya (Dania Ramirez) and little Molly (Adair Tishler), clearly sparked when Mohinder called her a hero. "Kristen Bell gave us the perfect reaction in that scene," Kring says. "For a moment there, Elle sees she's been given an opportunity to use her powers in a good way. And she absolutely likes the sound of that word 'hero.'" Not to worry. There are plenty more baddies coming after the writers' strike concludes. In fact, the title of Volume 3 — "Villains" — says it all.

"We've introduced a cadre of them over the course of the show and we're going to see them rise up," Kring says. "Just as the heroes have found each other to save the world, the villains will do the same with the opposite intent." And their numbers may be legion. "The Company has catalogued many of these people over the years. There may be more of them down in that basement than we have alluded to so far."

Will Sylar (Zachary Quinto) be their ringleader? After being electro-zapped by Elle, Mister Eyebrows escaped to a back alley and skeevily injected himself with Claire's (Hayden Panettiere) blood. Then, in a wicked salute to Popeye, he telekinetically grabbed a can of spinach and said, "I'm back!"

"Sylar getting his power back does not bode well for our heroes," says Kring, who admits there is one upside to the writers' strike: Originally, Quinto was not going to be available for much of Volume 3 because of his commitment to the new Star Trek film. Now, with the strike dragging on, he'll likely be done playing young Spock by the time Heroes returns to production.

No way, not when there's a chance that Micah will go all emo and snap at the world.

He's a damn Cyber God!

HiME · « **Reply #352 on:** December 05, 2007, 08:20:43 AM »

I think the only thing I liked about this 2nd volume was KBell.
Thank god they didn't kill her off.

Rick-e · « **Reply #353 on:** December 05, 2007, 02:38:13 PM »

No big final battle = fail

still hoping for an improvement for volume 3 though.

Only thing that's cool was Hiro Putting adam in that coffin. that's real cold-blooded!

this seasoned failed for sure, towards the end it got interesting, but the season finale was anticlimatic. i blame the writers strike, but i dunno either from the way things look now, i can just see season 3 being a repeat of season 1.

they really need a new villain i'm tired of sylar, although he's badass. they can't keep killing him off and bringing him back each season.

Rick-e · « **Reply #356 on:** December 06, 2007, 11:13:42 AM »

^ well Tim Kring has promised to bring more villain in season 3 so we'll see..

If season 3 is even as good as season 1, then I'll be happy

Ren · « **Reply #357 on:** December 07, 2007, 03:54:40 AM »

I hope Kristen Bell will still be around for the whole volume 3.

I wonder why Hiro not stab Adam's brain or something instead of putting him in a coffin, because that's just... so much cruel-er than killing Adam.

And I was so hoping someone will kill Mohinder because he is such a whiny boy in this season. And Parkmeat should get Sylar'd before Peter gets to absorb his new mind power. Hopes Niki stays dead and not get revived by some Miracle blood, Jessica was fine, Gina is a no-no.

I'm kind of not thrilled hearing Sylar will return as the main villain, the same villain can be boring.

That's exactly what I was thinking. This way, considering Adam will live likely forever he has a lifetime to struggle trying to get out.
