Heroes 3.2, "One of Us...." AKA "The Hell?"

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH MY SHOW??????

It seems that everything is getting out of control crazy; moving at this crazy fast pace, in a world where people seem to not get what they deserve. It seems that "Heroes" is starting to lose its charm to me. I still forever love it, but really. I kinda don't feel that passionate about making my "Fo Real

My theory is the writers are overcompensating because so many people disliked the slow starting pace of last season. I'm not sure they know what they're doing anymore. They're just throwing everything out there and hoping something sticks. It's like watching a wannabe at a party who's trying WAY TOO HARD.

I agree with vampedvixen. They're overcompensating by trying every single thing they could do to the characters and hoping that only a couple of those things would be good. It's sad, really...they are focusing too much on plot twists and not enough on the plot itself. I'm not even watching the show anymore, because I get the gist of what's happening by reading all the spoilers of the plot twists. I read spoilers all the time, and they usually make me want to watch an episode, not turn me off from it! Again...I have to say that the downfall of Heroes is pretty sad.

Also, I completely agree with you that Heroes does not treat its African American characters well at all. Whenever a journalist tries to weed out a reason for a character death, the writers always say that it is because they don't know what else to write about the character. What does that say about the African American characters? That they can't flesh them out and develop them into fully-realized characters like the other characters? Again, just sad.
