Season 3 Heroes Incoming

Heroes_season3

According to AintItCoolNews.com, we have the first two hours of Heroes season 3 coming up and NBC posted a description for them.

Season 1 was thrilling and fantastic, I had only one complaint and that was when Hiro, Peter and Future Hiro made the assault in the episode, I believe it was 'Five Years Gone'; episode 20. They came into the lobby, they were surrounded by guns, our heroes lept into action.... directly into a commercial break. When we got back a few minutes later we were witnessing them in the aftermath of the battle. We did not see it... I was a bit annoyed, but I got over it.

Season 2 started and I was excited as a little school boy. Hiro in the past...Wow... this is gonna be great. And then we got episode after episode of:

1. Big Danger/Battle coming
2. Heroes Leep into action.... directly into a commercial break.
3. Commercials
4. We come back to aftermath of a battle we never saw.

ASDF!!!!
QWERTY!!!!

By the end of season 2 I realized I simply do not care anymore.

So Season 3? I am really not looking forward to it. I may play a drinking game with the season for how many fight sequences we don't get to see.

My other shows have found a perfect balance, Stargate, Lost, Dr Who, Primeval, The Unit, Eureka....all of them have great character development with their need to use special effects. If they can do it... Heroes can do it. There is really no excuse.

Most of the complaints I heard about season 2 where Claire's angsty romance... I really did not care one way or the other. I am a Hiro and Ando fan through and through. Peter is pretty kick ass...and Sylar is a joy to watch.

What is next?
I may DVR it and watch it when I have some free time. This way if it does turn out pretty sweet then at least I am not behind on the episodes. If it is more of the same then I can always kill it and skip any future seasons.
