Heroes: Volume II Finale




Wow. Where do I start? This season has been a little bit of a letdown. I wouldn't call it the train wreck some have labeled it but, vol. 2 has been weaker than the first season. In season one the show gradually build to it's climax but there was a sense of something grand from the very beggining. Volume 2 felt rushed. The writers strike couldn't have helped but one gets the feeling that the creator lost touch with what made the show popular. New characters were introduced with very little care for there place in the overall scheme of things and old characters were killed off without much thought.

Something good things to come this season were the introduction of Kristen Bell and David Anders. Both actors and their characters have made an impact on the show and it should be interesting to see what happens with their characters in the next story arc.

Nathans death is shocking and serves as a great finale to vol. 2. but, I felt he was one of the best actors on the show and his character was the most layered. It'll be interesting to see how the show fills the void of one its most important charcters.
