Alright, I was an avid fan of season 01, but I have almost been lost for season 03 after that poor excuse for a season.   So many holes and so many problems.   Not to mention the horrible timelines and acting:

1)  What was with the 8 pictures from the beginning of the season that were such a big deal?  Noah was going ALL OVER THE WORLD to get these 8 pictures and none of them told us anything except that he would die.   He said that they would bring down the company.   What happened with all that?  It was just lost.

2)  Will Claire ever stop horribly trying to cry in EVERY episode?  And that high-pitched whiny speech.   Does she know how to act like a normal person at all?

3)  Peter's powers seem to have absolutely no limits.   This has made everything implausible.

4)  Why is this kid Molly always sleeping - and HOME ALONE.   And, how exactly did she end up in a house with Parkman and Shuresh?  I'll bet that was interesting to work out with the adoption agency.   How do Parkman and Shuresh take off for weeks at a time with no one watching this kid?

5)  How does the regenerative blood work on someone after their cold and dead?  This makes no sense to me as there is no blood flowing in this person at that time.

6)  What does Noah's wife and kid do while all this stuff is going on?  They just conveniently reappear every once in a while.

7)  How did Kensei Takezo (or however the hell you say his name) disappear way back when and yet he still lived up to the legends?  Hiro was him for about a week.   There were stories he heard as a kid that spanned years.   This chick from back then will just make them all up?  This makes no sense.

  It was Noah who shot Nathan, WHY IN THE HELL WOULD HE GO BACK WITH THE COMPANY???

9)  This "company" is getting ridiculous and stupid.   From all accounts, it appears that "Bob" (love the name) is the only one running the show or actually doing anything.   Everyone else of the "12" have been gone and now they're all being killed by Adam.   Don't they have any powers at all?  How does this wuss with regenerative powers kill everyone and get all his strength?  This makes no sense at all.   

10)  If Peter stopped the virus from being released, what happened to that chick Claire?  And, why didn't he just go back and grab her whiny ass?

11)  Why would stupid ass Shuresh give Sylar the blood?  Sylar puts down the gun to get his blood taken - why didn't he a) grab the gun, b) inject him with air to kill him, or c) ANYTHING ELSE BESIDES HELP HIM!  This was too convenient and it was dumb how simply they let Sylar get his powers back.   

12)  Why did Maya survive?  The only one more annoying than Claire is Maya.   All she does is cry and whine.   My God. . .

13)  Molly - what's the point of this character?  She is utterly stupid.   Why do we still have her on there?

14)  How come Micah's cousin wasn't able to fight those stupid thugs or avoid their bullets?  She just weakly was captured.   This whole scenario fit together terribly.

I could go on and on, but it's annoying to do so.   I thought this show was brilliant last year and its let me down on so many levels this season.   Why?  I wish it could have lived up to last years excellence and now it just seems like the writers are skipping around creating scenarios that are way too convenient and with too many gaps.   And the characters are increasingly more annoying.   What a letdown, Heroes. . .

Alot, I think has to do with this being a shortened season, but I have to agree that there were alot of plot points that either didn't go anywhere or seemed less significant once some of them ran their course (Alejandro).  If any of the show's writers are paying attention, less "appetizers" and more "entres" in Season three please.

[ILwatcher]

That was my assumption to - the writer's strike interrupted the flow and caused a lot of plot lines to be cut short, but it's certainly made me less anxious to see next season.   After the first 7 episodes, I was ready to stop watching out of boredom (my wife won't watch it anymore).   Then, they finally explained the previous 4 months and it barely gained my interest back.   Too many holes and too many diverging plots is making it almost like a soap opera.   We have to recap everytime we come back to an existing subplot.   I was very disappointed by the writing this season.

AMEN...

I posted some of my own questions in another thread:
http://www.heroestv.com/forum/index.php?topic=3405.0

As for Molly...I think the problem with her character is that she was very "central" to season 1.  With the entire plot focusing on Sylar and his hunger to acquire more powers, a critical power for him to acquire (the most critical in his mind) would be the ability to locate anyone else just be thinking about them.  This would result in a much faster acquisition of his powers which was his ultimate goal.

Once he was immobilized after the battle with Peter (and his powers gone from the Shanti virus) she became less important.  Now that he has regained his abilities, my guess is that he will come after her again.  That is certainly the main reason why he too Molly along...as soon as he regained his powers, she and Maya were his next two victims.

I see where you're going with Molly and that makes sense, but my God.   It's not that difficult to give her a normal daily life in a separate stream or even include her in the story in a more interesting way.   I think that's what they were trying to do with Parkman's dad.

The killer, I think, is what you wrote your whole forum about.   Peter Petrelli's incredible stream of abilities is ridiculously out of control.   I originally thought that he would only be able to absorb the powers of the supers around him.   But now he can use them anytime he wants.   There's no limit at all to what he can do.   I think that's why they had him blow up in the first season and then have his brother shot in the second.   That way, he's so distracted with all the other bs, that he doesn't have the time to realize how awesome he actually is.   Speaking of that, what was up with all of the passing out in the first season that Peter was doing?  He kept seeing the future and dropping in the middle of nowhere.   Why?  What was that all about?

I guess I'm asking all of these questions because I wish that someone out there would have some questions, but deep down I know that there aren't really any good answers to these questions.   That's why I'm so disappointed.   I WANT this show to be great.   But it's just not.

Lets see if I can help...
The wirters strike destroyed alot of plots. But volume 3 will be apart of season 2!
""""Go to my spoiler page on volume 3 and you will diffiently get siked for seaon 3!""""


ok...(# is the # of the quetion you asked.)

1. That was bennets part of the story. He only wanted to do it because we was worried about himself.
Those pictures were the last by Issac Mindez.
He told mohinder that they may be the key to bring the company down, But he stoped once we found out the last was a picture of him dead he lost that thery.

2. I think Hayden P. is a great actor myself...that's more of an opinion

3. That is why the company wanted to keep peter locked up.

4. The company must have handeled everything. Parkman and Mohinder never went on any adventure's really. During the last episdoe molly was with mohinder and parkman was on slight adventure.

5. the blood regenrates there blood and heals them.

6. I see them in almost all the episode with Claire or Bennet, they have about the same screen time as they did last season.

7. He was there more than a week and hiro MADE him accomplish some of his  legends. Ohter than that they were just retold too much- which change the story.

8.Theret's a common theroy....I thought he made it pretty clear he was going back to keep his family safe.

9.Bennet said all that is left is bob. most the company's big points were destoryed season 1(las vegas)

10. That will be answered(it's kinda the cliff hanger)

11. It all happend fast. Mohinder never noticed he took the blood till after he left.

12.She has one of the "bad" powers.  Only someone like sylar would want that one.

13.^^that was answered by someone else.

14.She's new tto her power.
