Heroes Feedback

[TRu]

This board was made so the Heroes writers/team can easily find suggestions from their fans.  Some writers have stated that they'll be reading comments on fansites, and that we could possibly have an influence on future storylines. Hopefully at some point they can join in the discussion and respond to us.

Please post your suggestions in a respective manner.  Focus on making the show better without being too negative.  Be constructive and creative.

To anyone involved in the making of Heroes (writers/production/cast), I'd love for you to be a part of our community.  Please contact me if you have any questions.

I think this show is cool. However, I do have some constructive criticism: So far Niki just seems like a scizophrenic sl*t. As of episode 3, what super-ability does she really have? None? She's just a crazy violent sl*t.  She does not seem like someone that will develop into a hero, but a candidate for "America's Most Wanted." I have a hard time rooting for her as she goes around killing people, being a horrible mother (burrying murder victims while her son sleeps nearby!) and sleeping with married men. Since I've crossed into that "moral ground", I'd like to represent a minority viewing audience: the conservitave-Christian-science-fiction fan. Like most shows on TV these days, this show lacks moral value. Even though there is some permiscuity in Smallville, at least Clark and his parents have a moral foundation giving the show SOME redemptive value. However, in Heroes, so far only two of the "heroes" demonstrate moral character: the police officer and Hiro. The others? One is a drug addict, one is a professional sl*t & a murderer, one is now a tenage murderer, one is a sleep-easy, and one is a crooked politician. I sure hope that this doesn't represent a cross-section of our society.  I'm sure it makes for good ratings, but you're about to lose my viewership if show continually promotes illegal and immoral behavior. I would love for this show to be one that I can watch with my teenage kids. But currently, it's fringing on something that I don't allow myself to watch! I might not represent the majority of your viewership, but I'm sure that I represent at least 5-10% of them. Please try to keep TV rated PG. Stop trying to push the limits.

Hello 11th post. I shouldnt be doing this. or is it my 12th.
Well I've posted on the rest of the threads on theories and speculation.

I really like the show even after rumors that its the reason that my fav show SG 1 is getting cancelled. Or is it.

Well Show is awesome and I like what they did with asian guy. Im asian too so thats cool. He has that awesome sword and neat costume. The beard is cool too HAHA.

Well So far I believe peter is scyler, he tries to learn more about his true powers so he goes off and gets a chance to steal the time shifter and the stripper's powers. Meets with the old man to learn more, ends up finding out that he can take powers permanently and becauseof the girl's psychotic powers he goes power mad, and on his  streak of  power stealing brain grabbing skull cracking spree, he becomes himself again and starts writing forgive me.
Ends up trying to end this organization that breeds heroes since he and his brother was a part of it . Thus his dad comitted suicide cause he couldnt forgive himself for what he has done to his own sons.

Sounds like John Doe kind of. I just wish I had found out more about John Doe's science backstory. Hope heroes wont leave us hanging on how they got their powers since obviously some if not all  are genetically engineered since the insignia on the girl's back couldnt come off randomly.

Maybe it did come off randomly but then again i believe in intelligent design and I  know intelligent design when I see it.
Anyway this show is a very intelligent design. Lol
Big ups. Keep the stuff coming. I dont want the show to get canceled like SG 1- or was that just a  rumor.
Peace & God Bless.

well you are entitled to your opinion but WTF... i bet off the top of your head you can't name 5 tv dramas even in the last 10 years that dont involve everything you hate about these characters.... if you dont want to see these things in your house hold, turn the freakin channel to watch the christian network channel... BTW  since 1996, your friends at the FCC, and parent groups,  pressure and instill thier beliefs upon the rest of us in the USA. and WE the 90%  that realize that this is FICTIONAL.. really you can belive me they are FICTIONAL CHARACTERS.. like i said if you dont like it turn it off.

This is a place for constructive criticism of the show, not a place to start a flame war. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. May I suggest, Jetstream, that if you would like to discuss the religion implications of the show (which could turn into a great dicussion) that you start a thread in another part of the board so that we can debate it?

Cant everyone just along?

[kopetkai]

Ok so Hiro comes back in time to give a message and he can't be bothered to say where the cheerleader lives? her name? what school she goes to? I guess he just wants to build the suspense? 

And why does it take nikki so long to realize she has two personalities, by the time she talks with herself in the mirror I was completely bored by her storyline.

And Suresh fights why too hard against following in his father's legacy, he's such a drama queen, either follow his research or don't. 

...When Suresh finds the lair with the other map in it, it seemed like the set directors didn't even try to make it interesting, instead of making a really scary and interesting room they just tried to imitate "scary" rooms they had seen on other movies with their exposed lightbulbs and random papers taped up everywhere.

....A good point was when Nathan flew to avoid capture, but then was followed with another confusing moment when he gives Hiro a ride.  Nathan already proved he wouldn't do this when he wouldn't give Suresh the time of day. 

....This show has some awesome moments followed quickly by mind numbing cliches or long drawn out struggles with Suresh about will he or won't he take up his dad's research.  (who cares)  Oh and I love how the future Hiro has a little goatee, are all the future heroes going to have goatees and dress in black a la star trek and the evil Spock?  good job guys.

[truewolf]

nathan wouldn't give surish the time of day because HE could speak perfect engilsh.. HE was a threat.. hiro BARELY speaks english and he seems a bit crazy.. he tells EVERYBODY he can stop time.. would YOU believe ANYTHING this person said? I know I wouldn't.. he's MUCH less of a liability. and they say that it's "save the cheerleader save the world" they IMPLY it's claire.. but what if there's ANOTHER cheerleader somewhere.. or even in the same school.. with powers SHE"S hiding and we just don't know it yet.. maybe THAT is why hiro came back.. they've seen the pictures of "a" cheerleader.. but maybe it's the wrong one? now THAT would be a twist in the plot! that might be something the producers might think about.. imagine watching half of the season and they were protecting the WRONG PERSON! and by doing this it would be almost a loop.. hiro would go BACK in time again to relay a DIFFERENT message.. only more clearly this time.. he didn mention just by going there he could cause a rift.. maybe this is because it's not his first time in that location? just speculation but that could prove to be VERY interesting!

[sandy knight]

I'd love to see Claire's brother Lyle as Sylar (that would be a surprise) or other power...seems like a good young actor!

[SupaHiro]

We are all in for a suprise some time.....things will happen beyond our thoughts.....keep me on the edge...thats all i am asking

[truewolf]

the writers are doing and excellent job.. I'm DYING to see how this all ends!

[superBUM]

i think with the popularity of the show.....isaac powers should not be triggered by heroine.

its got me afraid that kids will assume they can do it to

and while it does sound stupid...its the truth

i remember when superman and spiderman were huge.....the number of kids jumping out windows in attempts to fly were huge.


even tho im told isaac

(click to show/hide)

wont be using heroine for powers anymore

[OTHER GUY]

This is a totally awesome creation.  I mean.....how many times can you have shows or stories about people with powers "far beyond those of mortal man" without becoming plagaristic?  The writers/producers/creaters of this show deserve an Emmy, if not several, for this first great fictional creation of 21st century television.

I have been stymied as well most of the public with the fragmentary delivery of the shows.  Showing only little bits of each character keeps us on edge of our seats, keeps us begging for more.  Plus, it's the only way you can effectively develop everyone, so many characters at once.

I was quite disappointed in "HomeComing", expecting it to be a big tie-in of everyone, since "Save the cheerleader/Save the world" was given to us.  But it never came.  It took the next show, "6 months Ago" to do that, bring things together so we understand more of the motivations, the plot developments.  And you can be sure that the writers/creaters/producers are going to continue to do the very same thing.  Because even tho' "6 Months" answered many questions, it gave us more questions to mystify us for weeks to come. 

But that's what makes the show so special.....the creators have come upon the method of keeping us tuned in, keeping the suspense going, keeping the intrigue alive.  Most of us would love to know everything right now, but that would completely change the whole existence of the show, would create a show that wouldn't be as successful, nor as enticing.

My only suggestion is.....have another foe appear, even more devious that Sylar.  You could call him........Timex.  Ooooooo......the mystery deepens!!

Remember, this is just the first storyline... your time is coming Timex

[Wannabee]

Show is a great concept.


A couple of points:

Start developing Nikki, DL, and Micha's story a lot better. If the writers have to, devote an entire hour to their story. Or do a spin off!    To be honest DL is becoming my fav character simply because of the complexity of his story and the seeming adaption of the manga/Japanese movie theme Lone Wolf and Cub.

Another point, stop being ambigous with some story plot threads, be more concise.
