Seems to have lost its way this series. I almost stopped watching half way through last night. What they should have done after Series One is started doing actual stories with the characters. That's to say, bring them together into a fighting unit, and make them have some actual story each week, not just eternally build and build the characters.

I've seen the first two, and haven't been bothered to watch the other three yet. Got them on tape and will do a marathon with the missus. It's funny how shows like Lost and Heroes can lose their way in the search for being original and unique. You never got that with Prisoner Cell Block H.

I'm totally lost now with Heros. :(

I get so confused with episodes and series being on more than one channell and on at different times, and repeated and catch ups.......my heads spinning.

I saw probably 3 episodes of series 2 (not inclusing the last episode twice) and 2 of series 3. Not recomended to keep up with whats what and who's who. :lol:

I'm not a great user of TV listing mags. :?

You can tell the studio that makes Heroes has sacked several writers.

Instant changes in the last 5 eps to bring the show around.

1. No more wandering Heroes around the globe. They are all in one place and creating faction groups to combine powers.

2. One clear goal - stop the bad guy (thank you Syler for that one).

3. The departure of some very un-needed characters (wont list them all as that would be spoilers).

4. The conclusion of a chapter with some really good action/drama/twists/shocks/blah blah, etc

5. Everyone (apart from Clare's adopted mum) has a power.

6. There is less "growth" and "control" of the powers. New powers are being understood, but there is no adapting of powers to make it fit the storyline.

Overall Heroes has become a much better show.

Now for improvements on Bones and Lost please :D

The last set of Heroes was pretty good after a slow start, but now we're back into silly mode, it seems to me. Perhaps it will pick up again.
