    Heroes: any fans left?

    Just started watching the new season, and to be honest, I don't really care about any of the characters anymore.
    I have a "so what?" feeling.

    The creators obviously liked Carnivale, so we get a nice carbon copy of that.
    Ray Park is doing his Darth Maul, with regular knives.
    Robert Knepper is doing his T-Bag from Prison Break.
    We get the next batch of X-Men clones (like The Dazzler).

    Methinks it's time to stop watching.....

    Me too! I had heard it got a lot better after the writer's strike screwed up Season 2, when I stopped watching. Added it to Tivo the other day and we watched an episode...it seemed fine, but we just didn't care at all. Kept looking to see how much time was left.

      I enjoyed season 1, but they really dropped the ball after that. With all the time travel and bringing people back from the dead, or characters loosing and regaining their powers it's no wonder people don't care about what happens on the show anymore. There are no stakes! Anything that happens can be reversed or taken back.

        We are watching it, but the more we watch the less we like it. I'll see them all now since we started with Netflicks last fall and have been catching up ever since. So, yeah, I'm a fan, but it wouldn't break my heart if it ended soon.

            I was a huge fan and as others have said kind of lost interest since Season 2.

            Most of them are available at no charge from Comcast On Demand but I find myself not even missing it.

              I never liked Peter Petrelli and kept routing for him to die since season one. I always thought the series should have focused on Hiro more. Masi Oka's performance is very entertaining and the character is much more original.

                  When I watched (Season 1 and part of Season 2) Hiro was my favorite character and I thought his part of the story was by far the most interesting and entertaining.

                  I honestly don't know (off the top of my head) what Season the show is in now or even what night it airs. I lost all interest awhile back.

                  Initially, I was even reading the online comic episodes and I have all of Season 1 recorded.

                    I have not seen it. I hear about it, but I don't know what it's about.

                      I've only seen Seasons 1 and 2. From what I'm reading, I'm rather scared to check out Season 3 and beyond...

                          I like many others have lost my interest. I TIVO it but just dont care about the characters....Hiro has always been my favorite character....but the rest? We saved the cheerleader already...somebody save the show.

                            Mostly I just listen to it anymore while folding the clothes. The show has a few moments here and there but the plot fails to keep me riveted to my seat. Overall not a bad show, but I would not mourn its demise.

                            The real shame is that the show could be so much more with better writing.
