Comments on: Heroes: Boring villains? http://www.thetvshowblog.com/2008/02/18/heroes-boring-villains/ Tue, 02 Dec 2008 00:16:12 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: Josh Kelhoffer http://www.thetvshowblog.com/2008/02/18/heroes-boring-villains/#comment-1379 Josh Kelhoffer Mon, 18 Feb 2008 22:11:46 +0000 http://www.thetvshowblog.com/2008/02/18/heroes-boring-villains/#comment-1379 I guess to go into more detail of what I just said. I think io9 is basically just nagging. I don't consider Mrs. Patrelli and HRG villians, they both see like grey areas. They either seem to or do evil things, but something about them seems that they seems unvillianish, and I don't think they are meant to be considered villians, and at least, not yet. HRG will probably go all good in the end. I can see that happening. And the fact that they are complaining about a season that hasn't aired yet. Sure, they are basing it off of what they have seen in the past seasons, but it seems like they are assuming that a season called "Villians" won't introduce "Villians" and that it'll just be about Bob and HRG and Mrs Patrelli, and possibly Sylar (but according to an issue of EW from last season, he's supposed to disappear for a while, due to his obligations of Star Trek, of course, that might change because "Villians" before the strike, was to be the second half of season 2). I liked Sylar in season one. To me, until they introduce someone new, he's the villian of the series. I love the show. The only things I didnt like from the show is Ali Larter's character, her kid, those two people that were hitching with Sylar. Also, I agree with your comments with Claire. It seemed like she all of a sudden forgot the first season. It's like "Oh, I hate these amazing powers. These completely awesome powers are ruining my high school life," which was just as pathetic and lame as her boyfriend from season 2. I guess to go into more detail of what I just said.

Well, let's see: No one seems to really "die" in this show. No matter what power they have, they always seem to "come back". That's shitty, especially when you continue to bring in other characters. And why is it that people in the same family all of a sudden have powers too? Cousin's, siblings, lovers...Whatever. Season two ended with less acclaim than season one. The villains aren't even all that bad, plus, there doesn't seem to be enough of them. The show is getting too predictable. On the flip side, Kensei dude is probably going to end up being Claire's biological father. Why are the hotter female actor's killed or sent off (Bob's daughter and that shape-shifter from season one)? I know this show pays tribute to X-Men in a way, but come on... At least make it a grown-up version. What do I want? Well, let’s see: No one seems to really “die” in this show. No matter what power they have, they always seem to “come back”.
