Ok, I wasn't going to say anything, but I'm having trouble getting over it. Yesterday, I ditched 'Heroes' in favour of a documentary about Japan's obsession with fish. Yes, a DOCUMENTARY ABOUT FISH! It's crazy, I know. I used to watch 'Heroes' religiously; during the first season, almost every episode seemed like a cliffhanger. Sure, season two was short, but I didn't think it was as bad as other's have said. Season three; things were slowly grinding to a halt and now, season four has completely lost me.
Ever since the show first started, I wondered how it would stop itself from turning into an X-Men rip-off, and I think they did a pretty good job of it...until now. I'm no X-Men fanatic, but I've seen enough of it to know that this season of 'Heroes' is pretty much the plot from the last X-Men movie. Rounding up mutants and removing their powers sounds rather familiar...Next thing you know, Magneto's going to show up to lead the resistance.
And the characters...I don't think I even want to get started on the characters. Suffice to say, it's time to wipe the slate clean, blow them all up and start again. And no more painting the future!

Woah! Serious? I stayed up to watch ep 20 (s3 part 2 - how weird!)... and I love it~ much much better than s2!
ReplyDeleteHmm... yes the x-men factor... I try not to think about that and because I never really understood the real storyline behind it, I'm not going to try to now :P
I've actually been missing out on watching Heroes. Luckily I've got sources and I'm updated with the latest one.
ReplyDeleteLOL @ Magneto
I think once they start wearing costumes, then it will turn into an X-Men rip off. They should get rid off Captain America Nathan Petrelli, he just pisses me off!
LOL I never liked Nathan either. But no one ever dies in Heroes...and when they do, they come back as ghosts, apparitions, blah blah blah...
