FanFiltration said:I loved season one, but found season two very weak, un-inventive, and much too repetitive. The whole idea of the no one can die if they get a bit of super blood takes so much away from the drama and fear of losing one of our heroes.
Yeah, I agree with you. Season two lost a lot of what made season one enjoyable. Hopefully they gain that back in season three. I only got to see the first half of last nights two part opener, but already we can see that the drama and fear of potential danger to anyone is lost entirely. It is becoming a joke, this show has more people coming back to life than a Soap Opera. It really takes away a lot IMHO. Heroes' changeable time line took this away from the very start, and the Clair blood just added to it.
At the end of season one, I really thought they were going to kill off Nathan, it made since, the guy sacrificed himself to save the world. Would have been much more effective had he really died. At the end of season 2 when they killed him off again, the first thing I thought was, "Yeah, ten minutes into season three and the guy will be perfectly healthy again."
Heroes is a pretty big rip off of just about everything else anyway, season one started off feeling like X-Men, and ended feeling like the Watchmen. Season 2 had some very obvious Watchman themes to it, especially the whole "old" heroes thing. I still enjoy the show well enough for what it is, but season two was pretty lackluster, and felt almost like season one all over again, but with different twist (S1 city destroyed by explosion; S2 destruction by plague; S3 looks like destruction by Suresh's mutant maker), I hope season three gets more interesting and original, but from the previews and what I have seen so far, doesn't seem likely...
Oh yeah, and how dumb can Suresh be? Seems like he is always doing something stupid and being an idiot.
