Should I start watching Heroes.
 
Always considered starting with the first season and trying to get into it. Only saw bits and pieces of it since it's been on.

So, Yay or Nay.

No you should not. First season is superb. Then it starts slowly going downhill... and then it completely goes to shit.

CSL 01-25-2010 09:42 PM

Yup. First season is fantastic. The rest is still better than a bunch of other stuff.

I caught up with Netflix and I still like the show. None of the later seasons compare with the first (and the second season was a mess the show never recovered from), and season three tried too hard with it's political points. I do like season four (especially the first few episodes, great dialogue style introduced) and find people's criticism a bit reaching this year. While the earlier comments on the seasons were understandable, the stuff people say about four is on par with 'it's hip to hate Heroes'. Unnecessary.

Anyway, watch it it if you want - but know season one will set up a bar the rest of the seasons just won't reach again.

First season was good.

Second season was Awesome and my favourite, though everybody hates it.

The first part of season three was a mess. Never saw the second half because I thought the season was over because the "volume" ended.

Never got back into it, don't really feel like I'm missing much. Might watch it someday on DVD.

What Would Kevin Do? 01-25-2010 11:31 PM

Heroes is.... odd.

I hated the first few episodes, but for the most part, really got into the first season.

The second season was pretty awful, despite Adam being awesome.

Third season was awful too, but it had it's moments.

This season has been pretty damn good thus far, besides the fucking deaf girl.

Overall, Heroes is enjoyable. There are some bad parts, there are some good parts. Check it out for yourself.

I have been watching the show since the start, and consider myself a 'fan'.

It is true, season one is/was incredible, but something went wrong...

Certain characters were introduced for really stupid reasons, the whole template of how the story was told changed so much it lost it's greatest narrative structure after season 1.

Season 1 was awesome, season 2 was restructured because of the strike and ended prematurely, season 3, I actually liked, it just fluctuated too much sometimes, season 4, its ok, probably the weakest really.

Give it a go.

Watch it if you can put up with a cheerleader hating her father one week then loving him more than anything the next and so on and so forth.

Jon Kano 01-26-2010 08:56 AM

Sylar, Peter Petrelli/Nathan, Edgar (Ray Park) are the only reasons I really still care for Heroes.

Kalyx triaD 01-26-2010 09:01 AM

You have one less reason, sir.

Jon Kano 01-26-2010 09:30 AM

I know, which is why this season isn't really up in my good books.

Jura 01-26-2010 10:22 AM

Just watch it. If you don't like it then stop. If you like it then keep watching. It's simple. Unless you're going to complain and whine about it later like a lot of stupid bitches do.

Corporate CockSnogger 01-26-2010 11:14 AM

Samuel has been fantastic in series 4. Keeping me interested enough to continue watching

Ermaximus 01-26-2010 11:23 AM

Watch season 1, just take out the cliffhanger ending and be done with it.

Sylar is the new Spock. You are correct about Sulu (although his character is dead in "current day"), but you forgot Uhura played Micah's grandmother in New Orleans.

OssMan 01-26-2010 01:04 PM

I'm gonna need pros and cons in order to make a decision

Corporate CockSnogger 01-26-2010 01:40 PM

Just start watching. If you like it, carry on watching.

D Mac 01-28-2010 03:32 AM

It's a tie!

Yeah watched the first 2 episodes in HD. God I love Netflix. :D

Pretty good, A lot of WTF is gonna happen next moments. Guess thats how they keep you watching.

This. Being an avid Heroes fan is rough.

D Mac 01-30-2010 03:28 PM

Up to Season 1 Episode 6. Without revealing any spoilers, which ones out of these people return after season 1.

Niki, Peter and his brother, Samesh, Hiro, Matt, Claire.

D Mac 01-30-2010 03:29 PM

From what I've seen so far, I don't think Niki has any powers, she just has split personality disorder. :shifty:

Yes.

D Mac 01-30-2010 04:10 PM

So that would be everyone?

Everyone on your list makes it beyond Chapter 1. There are more characters introduced in each Chapter.

Jura 01-30-2010 06:57 PM

Samesh lol

Jon Kano 01-30-2010 07:43 PM

Suresh, Hiro and Ando are top 3 on my hate list. Hiro was awesome in season 1, tolerable at least.

Jura 01-30-2010 07:51 PM

Who is your top 3 on your love list?

Jon Kano 01-30-2010 08:38 PM

At the moment -

1 - Edgar
2 - Peter
3 - Sylar

Really wish Edgar/Ray Park was in it 'properly'.

Have always been interested in Peter's character, how he is in present form, and in contrast to how his future versions were always tainted with pain/sorrow. Future Peter in 'Five Years Gone' = ultimate awesome Peter Petrelli lol. I also think, as well as Sylar's original power (intuitive aptitude), Peters original power (power mimicry) was very interesting and just made his character all the more cool to watch and predict. And I have always wanted him to get his original power back, although its is also interesting how he can only take and have one at the moment.

Jon Kano 01-30-2010 08:38 PM

what about you?
