Heroes…The begining of the end? Consequences of betraying the original idea.

Well, while Heroes is under the attack of the criticism and the low ratings, everybody thinks to have the answer for this, and the reason is that Heroes is bored right now, some people say it is the speed of the story, the cast and so on…I think this is a consequence of the betraying the original idea of Heroes, Kring stated that every season will start with new characters and new storylines, this idea was betrayed by the fact that Hayden, Milo, Masi, Ali, Adrian, and Jack became popular and they’re stars now. But by keeping this people on the show the surprise effect of Heroes ended, but we, as fans, were blaming everything but the characters because we’re fan of them. Me, for instance, I’m a fan of Sylar, and it was great in season one, but the wish to keep watching him is what lead the writers to keep all the cast to keep the viewers, but whar we’ve seen is that all the characters just shouldn’t be in the story, let’s do a mental exercise: what if the characters of this season were other people? No Mohinder, No Parkman, No Claire, No Elle…it’s interesting that only good criticism in the middle of the bad one are for Daphne this season, and for Elle the last one: the reason they are fresh.

Once again in order to keep viewers they decide to have more than one Volume for season (according to them to have more interesting episodes) this leaded to densify all the storylines in few episodes, instead of opening the story and make it get some fresh air, this had leaded to condense and make everything so superficial. The sum of this two facts is disaster, low ratings and bad criticism.

Why I’m so excited about Heroes:Destiny, new character, new storylines, NEW FACES. Also Daphne who is the only one I want to see this season.  Why don’t they return to the original ideas. Heroes has a potential for not dying…but if they want to they must get rid of the buch of old characters, and go back to the one volume per season formula, and that will do it.

Why Heroes’ Ratings are falling?

I want to state that actually the third season is written very well, the only episode I did not like was I BECOME DEATH, and the reason is simple: they showed us the future. What’s going on with Heroes writers?

Well they’re trying desperately to clean the mess of season two (and thank god it was only 11 episodes) and they’re doing EVERYTHING to get the viewers back, I think this is a “buffer” season, I like it (except I BECOME DEATH) because the disaster of season two is NOT easy to fix, and they’re doing a great job so far, the story is good, I have to recognize that the story is a little bit forced, specially Sylar’s being Angela’s son, and the feeling that they had no idea what to do with Matt, so they sent him to Africa (God I hate that Matt guy), this thing with Tracy is good, and also Nathan, even the thing with Claire, HRG and Sylar, all that is ok, they’ve got something in hands, and the episodes are getting better and better, they’re getting out the mud of season two, but they’re still dirty and we are aware of any detail to blame the writers again, so we hope that once the story gets strong enough we can say: WE GOT OUR HEROES back.

Heroes Falls

We told you so

Well after Homecoming Heroes hasn’t been able to keep its viewers and after the huge fiasco of season two, well we all thought about it and heroes is losing thousands of viewers every week, we told you…that season two was a huge mistake, the best they could do was start fresh with all new heroes, we’re tired of Sylar, Claire, Hiro and Peter, and even more tired of Parkman, Molly and Mohinder, let them go and show us new heroes, with all new fresh storylines. But anyway you can keep working to see if you can figure a way to take Heroes out of the mud.
