agreed, Although I've enjoyed the season 3 ride so far. I think my favourite character of the moment is the new guy who can paint [the future] like Isaac.
Keep in mind that we are 3 episodes deep into a 13 episode arc and the titular 'Villains' haven't really got much [or any] play yet. I'm talking of [Maury] Parkman, Lindeman, Kensei / Monroe et al.
Sylar is a fun character, I don't need for him to be sinister to enjoy the show....Season one was great but the worst thing they could do is the same sort of thing again. - I think they need to give the time travel aspects a bit of a rest.
