Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

So I got into HEROES because of my brother and step-dad. They let me borrow season 1 when it first came out on DVD. I didn't follow it on tv at all. I found the show to be well paced and a good vision of how real people would deal with super powers. And the end of the world crap. The season came to a close at a sort of cool battle with Sylar, the visions and paintings were all converging, blah blah.

Season 2 was sort of hard to watch, although the story actually made sense in it's own way. The writer's strike is partly to blame for its lacking. I even saw the Season 3 premiere at Comic Con and was stoked by how they incorporated the cliffhanger ending and the idea of everyone getting powers. Everyone cheered when Suresh injected himself and was strong. As the season went, I became less interested. The show seemed to be backtracking, going in circles.

The Season 3 finale, which I just watched on Hulu, was the worst episode of the season in my opinion. And has officially ruined my interest in the show. Nothing about the finale made sense. Claire's mom appears out of no where, only to complete a storyline that was dumb from the beginning. Especially how her and her brother caused that train wreck that Claire ran into in Season 1. Sylar becomes Jigsaw for a brief moment, locking everyone in the Company and making Claire choose who to save or some shit. People are losing their powers left and right. Hiro is hanging from a flag pole in the past, only to be brought back by Ando and Daphne because Ando now can supercharge other people's powers. Obviously if he touches Daphne, she'd be able to move sooo fast that she can time travel. Both ways. Does she just run in the opposite direction?

Then to top it all off, Nathan meets up with the President, gives him a folder of pictures and files, and expects him to believe that these people have super powers. Oh, and they should lock everyone up like in X-Men. So many people died in this season, I'm just waiting to see the new batch of heroes that have been minding their own business out in the world while all this shit has been going down. The show is running out of powers anyways. I thought the guy making vortexes was enough. What's next? Super hearing? Oh wait, they already did that one. Well they reused flying 3 times. Why not.

Also, the plot is always the same. Saving the world. Human bombs. Viruses. Everyone having powers. Maybe they should fight global warming next. Ohh oh, but PLOT TWIST. It's actually some guy making underground dams so that communities think it's global warming and will fund his business. Wait. Quantum of Solace did that. Yeah, that movie sucked too. Yeahh, lets just have them be fugitives. GODDAMN IT! X-MEN!

Yeah this show sucks now.

UPDATE:
I have now decided to make a Queeroes Collab. I'll make a post in the forums. I'll organize it KartuneHustlla and anyone else interested in tearing down this son of a bitch season.

hahaha, this is the best rant ever! Heroes makes no sense anymore

Dec. 29, 2008 | 9:20 PM MrAbnormal says:

Haha, thats true. The last was the worst. I cant wait to see the global warming plot twist.

Dec. 29, 2008 | 9:22 PM igott says:

Here's an Idea, make a parody on 'queerores.'

I really tried getting into this new season of Heroes but eventually I just gave up

Dec. 29, 2008 | 9:27 PM SamIam says:

Fighting Global Warming!

That's Captain Planet's Job

Dec. 29, 2008 | 9:36 PM igott says:

I don't think so.

Sorry, I don't think my noobishness is good enough for it, I got CS4 4 days ago and loaded it today!

Dec. 30, 2008 | 2:39 AM Stick-Master says:

i was the exact same way, loved season 1, disliked season 2, and HATED season 3...i was so fucking pissed...

but guess who came back? at the end of season 1, the original writer left heroes for Pushing Daisies, and has now come back! for the 4th season, so hopefully when that starts up, it will be good, he says "i hope to clean the series up and make the fans appreciate the season like they used to"

Dec. 30, 2008 | 5:10 AM eVr says:

Heroes is a great serie, season 3 rocked I watched every week, it's true the show kinda "flipped" from the first season, but that doesn't make it a bad one.

And for the plot, about saving the world and everything... They're Heroes!

Dec. 30, 2008 | 6:06 AM Valerofond says:

They had so many new characters they didn't know what to do with them, and by the end of season 3 everything was a mess. They tryied to go for the 'noone is good, everyone can turn evil at any time and vice versa' approach, but is just ended up fucking confusing

Heroes always sucked broseph

Dec. 30, 2008 | 11:13 AM StickmanClock says:

Who here hates stupid fucking emo-tastical Claire?

Dec. 30, 2008 | 11:54 AM Burning-Wookie says:

I felt it to be slightly better than Season 2... Now that ain't saying much though...

When Sylar went back to being SYlar I was happy hoping there'd be some awesome coming by, but he was used as a jigsaw faggot to write Clairs mom. The Ando thing could be built up as pure awesome, only to be used a comic relief in comparison to the moody Fight between the Petrellis. Fucking bullshit.

I am looking forward to the collab though.

Dec. 30, 2008 | 12:05 PM JDR1195 says:

Yeah, i thought Heroes made no sense and sucked since it started.

Dec. 30, 2008 | 1:01 PM OdHero says:

Loved the season with the exception of the last episode.

Dec. 30, 2008 | 6:17 PM trashcanman says:

the first season was pretty epic
second was awful
3 started good but when that artur person got in it sucked even more then lost started doing after a while

Jan. 2, 2009 | 12:50 PM DilloniusMonk says:

Dan, I could not be more pleased with this information. Rip that show a new asshole, but make sure to patch it up. I mean, they're already shitting on prime-time television programming, so we wouldn't want that to continue.

By the way, you need to call us and let us know when you're coming back in town. For real.

Jan. 2, 2009 | 7:28 PM Scoops12 says:

yeah it just wasnt that good :(

Jan. 4, 2009 | 3:22 PM super-sense says:

I hope it doesn't turn into lost with polar bears and hatches and shit.

Jan. 7, 2009 | 9:40 PM goblin1234 says:

left 4 dead is awesome!!!!!!!

Jan. 15, 2009 | 9:40 PM leob123 says:

the only thing it had was the hot cheerleader that you hoped would get boned on screen. thats it

Jan. 16, 2009 | 6:41 PM nelly12345 says:

well there's always lost

Jan. 27, 2009 | 6:28 PM LazyMuffin says:

I loved the first season... I just can't watch it anymore. It's awful.

Jan. 27, 2009 | 6:33 PM danomano65 responds:

thats why you should make a funny short to bash it.

Jan. 28, 2009 | 1:22 AM sleeeeep says:

How can you say the first season ended with a sort of cool fight with sylar. There was no fight. They biult that up the whole season. Then the fat cop shoot at syler and hes quick enough to turn around and stop the bullets and send em back. BUT hes not fast enought to turn around at a chubby asian guy wielding a sword yelling loudly running at him from 10 yards away. After that i lost interest. But i am lloking foward to your colab... maybe ill do something for it but probobly not.

Jan. 28, 2009 | 1:45 AM Duchednier says:

My girlfriend likes sylar enough to think the last episode was epic. I was all excited watching it because she built it up, and after watching it I was very upset...

Go queeroes!

Jan. 28, 2009 | 2:57 AM MattTheParanoidKat says:

Dude, don't get me started, I've made rant after rant, including those on a Heroes fan forum on how Heroes last season blew and that I should be a writer for them because I could make a story that isn't bullshit and convoluted.

I want flash now more than ever because I want to help this grand flash.... aside from the fact I never learned anything about flash :P

PS Hiro is the reason I watched this show because he was like Dio Brando from the best manga evar, and taking away his power to stop time is faggotshit. Oh, fuck Tim Kring with his idiotic X-Men obsession. fucking continuity alarm.

Jan. 28, 2009 | 5:28 PM Gamemeister128bit says:

The writer behind season one's "Company Man" episode is coming back on. That and the old ringleaders have been shitcanned. Maybe we can get a decent season. And then we might have a worthwhile finale for once.

Feb. 16, 2009 | 3:13 PM KingKombat says:

You NEED to watch Season 4, it dominates the hell out of Season 3. I didn't like Season 3 that much, too. But when I saw, like, the first episode of Season 4, I was like "OHSHI-" Syler's badass, Claire is badass, Hiro is funny, and Ando has powers. Please, at least watch some of Season 4. PLEASE!
