What Are Your Impressions?

So, after the big debate about 'good show,' 'bad show,' from a few weeks bad, do you think that HEROES storylines are improving?

Do you like what's going on now with Hiro?

Are you satisfied with changes the writers have been making to improve the show?

Episodes 9-11, "Cautionary Tales," "Truth & Consequences," and the most recent, "Powerless," have exibited a LOT of shifts.

Which of these has been your favorite episode?

(Truth and Consequences is supposed to have the appropriate 'ampersand' character in the title, but the blogger format wont' accept the ampersand in the 'keywords' area of the post...just a warning for those doing keyword SEO stuff)

Comments Held Back

I'm still pondering over what's happening in Season Two...

Though I DO like the changes that I've seen Kring and Crew apply to the show in the past two weeks, I'll reserve judgment on the show, as a whole until later this week.

Truthfully...I missed the first half of the last show *hanging head low* Yes, it's true. The Canadian Heroes FANATIC, Teeray (me) actually MISSED part of a show...

I will catch up on viewing the most recent episode and then comment on it by the weekend.

What I did see...FREAKED ME OUT!

What the freakin' H--- was MAYA doing with SYLAR?

Again, for a SECOND WEEK in a row...I am in denial...

I did NOT see Maya smooching Sylar...

No, no, no...that just did NOT happen...I closed my eyes and that vision went away!

:)

It exists only as a scant remnant of my imagination now...I am going to close my eyes during that portion of the show once I locate the best online viewing source for Heroes this week!

One part that I DO REMEMBER from the show and will verify, along with a 'thumbsup'.....

*cheering* YAY, Claire! Way to tell that freaky, disturbed Elle right off, my fine cheerleader friend! I really LIKED WHAT I SAW.....Claire has really got some 'umph' going for her at this point.

Way to be assertive, Claire!

*thumbsup*

In Denial

I'm in SERIOUS denial after watching tonight's Heroes episode.

I'm okay with Matt being able to project thoughts to others.

I'm okay with Angela's rant about being OLD...

What I am NOT okay with - and what I'm in serious denial about is...

I DID NOT see a bullet hit the lens on a pair of horn rimmed glasses.

Nope - I'm not going to say I saw that! No Way!

Will Tim and Crew Come Through?

Well, Heroes Fans, we're about to find out - tonight - if Tim Kring and the Creative Crew can pop the Heroes series out of its 'funk.'

I'm settin' up my place for 1 uninterrupted hour to watch Heroes tonight at 10pm, my time (9pm Pacific, 8pm Easter).

Are you ready?

Fan Concerns About Season Two Heard by Kring and Crew

Tim Kring admits that he and the crew that produce the Heroes series had taught viewers what to expect. This happened from the way that they organized and delivered Season One.

The current Season Two, so far, has moved away from whatever format that was used for the first season and, frankly, (some) viewers don't like the current format. Viewers have spoken out, SPOKEN LOUDLY, so Tim Kring and his series-making crew have heard the message.

Tim gave some interviews in the first week of November and made promises to fans that the show will change and viewers will get what they want!

Kudos to Tim!

"Heroes" Creator Apologizes To Fans

Things that viewers liked so far:
Kristen Bell - The way Kristen's character, Elle, was introduced right into the "Peter" storyline.

That's it...that's all, according to the TVNEWS article, that fans liked so far in Season Two.

Criticisms:

* New Heroes, Monica (Dana Davis), and Maya (Dania Ramirez) with Alejandro (Shalim Ortiz), were introduced in such separate storylines that they seemed unattached to the show.

* Love...it stinks! Viewers don't like the cheesy 'love' bits and don't buy these for one minute!

* Main "issue" of the series was held off way too long. Viewers wanted to know RIGHT AWAY - what are our Heroes collectively fighting for this season? This issue (Peter's 'vision') wasn't brought forth until episode 7 and viewers thought this was way too long to find out what kind of mission our Heroes needed to organize themselves for.

* Get Hiro OUT OF JAPAN! For a time-bending Hero, it's not plausible for Hiro to just be in Japan for over more than 2 or 3 episodes. In the first season, we see Hiro jump from present-Japan, all over the place, and even into the future! Why does he get stuck in Ancient Japan in season two? Sorry, not a good place for Hiro to be for so long.

Wow Molly is Messed Up

This is one weird episode!

Matt's dad - is he ever messing the Heroes up!

Everyone is morphing around and flashbacking...I might have to watch this one twice in order to 'get it' all. Once on TV, once online...

Oh cripes - the virus mutated, too - to a strain immune to Mohinder's antibodies..... WTF??? Niki's gonna die now?

And Hiro just managed to time-trip himself home - to find out from Ando that his father was murdered.....whoa - a LOT happening...

Good luck figuring this one out, people...

I'll be back in a couple of hours
