I do understand what you Elle/Kristen Bell fans feel. I would quit the show to if they killed Nathan off and let Peter,Sylar,Mohinder, and Hiro live
Only tolerable characters at this point is Sandra, HRG, Mr. Muggles, Nathan, The Haitian, Angela, Tracy. Matt and Daphne are ok but boring. |

I'm also just a bitter Veronica Mars fan and I don't enjoy having K. Bell ripped off my TV screen yet again. |

Is Kristin Bell even really that huge? She kind of falls into the Megan Fox catagory, hot as hell, and not a bad actress, but doesnt seem to have much staying
power past the next few years.

Ok, get ready for a longass NC rant. Got your drink? Ok:
WHAT THE FUCK HAS HAPPENED TO THIS SHOW?! I remember when the world stopped each Monday night at 9pm so I could watch this show! I remember literally getting excited with the story arc from season one. Remember when they captured Sylar, and then he killed Eve? Remember the first time we saw Peter try to save Claire? Remember the "future" story where Peter and Sylar/Nathan fought? Epic and memorable. Now, the show has turned into a steaming pile of convoluted shit, and "shock" moments that the fucking stupid writers thought would be good. Let me summarize: Basically, the show has one formula - go on and on in long, dragged out scenes introducing new character and/or making the ones that we all hate even more annoying than ever. Rehash the same lines week to week (do we really need to hear Daphne tell Matt that she saw Arthur kill his dad EVERY SINGLE WEEK?!). Then, after several scenes and/or an entire episode, immediately change what you've been building up and either kill the character of focus, or make them go away. Remember how so much of season 2 focused on Maya? Then she's almost immediately shoved off to the side in season 3. Remember how Claire was supposed to turn badass? Then she's immediately turned into this fucking emo cunt who bitches out Noah every goddamn week! Remember how Sylar is now a Petrelli and is changing to be good? Then tonight, he says that was before he got his powers back? Um - HE HAD HIS FUCKING POWERS LAST WEEK AND WAS GOOD! It makes no sense why he's suddenly being bad again - NONE!!! I'm not one of the insane Kristen Bell fans, but it makes no sense that they would spend so much time showing that she actually had feelings for Sylar, and then have them in the dramatic "Sylar can absorb powers through love" scene, then have them team up against Noah.......and then they just kill her off for no reason. Something else that fucking pisses me off? Why in the FUCK is Hiro still on the show? The readers must read blogs and now how much he's hated. I literally hate him! I know that sounds crazy to hate a fictional character, but I seriously HATE him. What do they do? Send him away for a few episodes? Kill him off? NOPE! They give him the mind of a 10-year-old and then throw him into like 14 7-minute scenes in a comic shop that are so fucking stupid that I wanted to throw my remote into my TV. Nathan and Peter go to Haiti to bring back the Hatian to help in the fight against Arthur. What happens? We get what appears to be some rip off of the A-Team for 44 minutes, and then Nathan just "forgets" that they are supposed to bring the Hatian back and flies away. Oh - and look! Peter is now trapped away from everyone AGAIN! Was that grey haired man supposed to be Daphne's dad because they never did say who he was. Did they ever explain what the Hatian's brother's powers were? If so, why didn't he ever use them? Once again - another character that an entire storyline was based on was killed in like 3 minutes. OH GOD NO!!! CLAIRE DIED!!! Then she immediately comes back to life. Who the fuck didn't see that coming?! She's already died in season 1 and came back. They even cut her open (for some reason) just like she was in season one. The only difference was that Mrs. Bennett was with her this time. And instead of showing us how they managed to get out of the hospital (since Claire was dead and all, and Mrs. Bennett spoke w/ the police) - we just zip along to another angst/drama scene where she bitches at Noah. Matt and Daphne are probably two of my facvorite characters, but their storyline was SO dragged out at a fucking corn farm that I wanted them to die. What was the entire point of it?! This show is a fucking disgrace. The ENTIRE writing team should be fired - not just those other 2 fuckers. How in the hell do you take a show that was so awesome in season one, and was basically a new cult hit - and in less than 2 years you turn it into one of the worst shows on TV. I swear to God, this show had better get interesting with the new writing team or I will not watch again. And that's sad, considering how much I loved this show in season one. Fuck you, Kring! |

Kristen Bell isn't THAT big, but the majority of whom has seen her tends to not just like her, but obsess about her. She is definitely on the rise.

A lot of it does have to do with Elle because of the elements that K. Bell can bring to virtually any character she plays. I think most could agree that Elle was one of the few bright spots last season. The character brought a dynamic to the show that was seriously lacking and she kept things moving/interesting at all times. In a season that moved too slow, the Elle character did her best to keep the pace at a strong level. Now I will watch this show regardless, however a show focusing on Mohinder's battle from within and Maya's triumphant return does not excite me in any form or fashion. Characters like Elle, to both the general public and the fandom gave the show a nice balance - a balance that was somewhat stripped tonight... if the character is indeed dead. |

Nightcrawler = B R E A T H!!
Do you need a hug? ETA: I agree with a lot of stuff you said. I liked the beginning of this season, but they keep wrecking too much stuff. I hope the writing changes really show through during the next half. |

What this season is missing is the darkness. Remember the first time we saw Sylar kill Jackie? Wasn't that so awesome? Now it's like "oh look,
Sylar's slicing skulls again. teehee, off with your shirt." Nothing has a consequence (ie: permanent death), so nothing is important or compelling.
Sucks that they chose Elle to die, I loved her, but if they bring her back it will SUCK.

Here's a fun game for all of you to play. This game is also known as "How to Write a Heroes Episode". South Park joked about Family Guy being
written in this manner, but I truly think they do this for real for Heroes.
PLAY ALONG AND POST YOUR RESULTS!!! 1. Choose a person from the "CHARACTER" box. 2. Choose an action from the "VERB" box. 3. Choose a 2nd character from the "LESS IMPORTANT PERSON IN SCENE" box. 4. Choose a setting from the "SETTING" box. Voila'!! You've written a new episode of Heroes!! (add articles, adjectives and adverbs as needed!!!)
