No more Heroes

[galathea]

Okay, today I watched up to episode 1.07 of Heroes and finally decided to give the show up again. It's just not my type of show, actually it bores me to sit 40 mins through an episode and I find myself looking at the clock constantly. This show gets ridiculously crowded with Superheroes, nearly every episode we have a new character with some new ability to spent time on. The constant jumping between various characters within an episode prevents any real investment in the ongoing storyline for me and together with the sheer amount of characters prevents any sense of connection to the characters on my side.

I love seasonal arcs but only if I can feel the gravity of the events through the connection to the characters and Heroes just does nothing in that regard for me. Add to that the constant feel of disbelief (see last entry discussion) this show arises in me and a tendency to be gory without purpose or necessity and you got my dissatisfaction with the show pretty much covered.

Yeah, the show turned me off around those episodes too. Seemed too predictable and forced. The next three sucked me back in though. ;) Well I'll be watching out for you like last year and if it picks up I force you to watch it! :hug: Though I can tell you Heroes could never be as amazing as SN.

ROFL well, it's pretty much a given that Heroes (or any other show that I know of at the moment) could never be as amazing, breathtaking, gripping and utterly absorbing for me as Supernatural is ;) That show owns my heart and soul and obviously doesn't intend to give it back :D But that's not what I was looking for in the first place anyways, I know I can only be obsessed with one show at a time and I was only looking for entertainment and Heroes doesn't provide that for me. :(

Yeah, I agree lots of events in the last episodes were totally predictable and while I get that it's all about the coming together and working on the big overall scheme of things it's just not enough to hold my interest. I am always only invested in characters first and only secondly in the plot. But it's good that you watch out LOL, you are like my personal tv scout *hugs*
