Like, Bill Frist? What does he have to do with Heroes? Has anyone watched the alternate ending yet? How is it? I hope that season three is an improvement on last year. At least the producers are even admitting that season two was uneven at best.

Season 2 didn't completely suck, but it wasn't as good as the first one. Hopefully the third will be better.

Sent someone to investigate a fainting in a high school? "We don't know, that's why we are sending someone over." I'm sure they could have came up with something better than that! Let's hope they put a LOT of thought into season 3 during the writers strike.

Not even close. For now. There was a rumor that there will be on the US version, an unfilmed episode that was pretty much in the can when the strike happened. But not fully completed, mind you.

the smartest one in the room by being in only 5 episodes. It seems like the show is going to make swiss cheese out of the space-time continuum with FutureClaire! and FuturePeter! among others, Sylar and HRG working together, and DOH!hinder wanting him a piece of the superpower action.

The virus is unleashed. Some Primatech employees are infected and pass out. It's in the air. The Sheriff will do nothing about it. Matt makes him listen to Nathan using his powers. Nathan is in charge and they quarantine the town, apparently. Peter causes a landslide on the only bridge in town (in storyboard style, not filmed). Nathan tells the world then collapses as he has the virus. Mama patrelli is on the phone and says "[sic]yes it was inevitable (about Nathan) do you realise that you have opened Pandora's box?" and then hangs up. Did I miss anything?

Yeah this show is pretty terrible. Way too many characters who just suck. I hate the cop who can hear your thoughts and the plot just seems so convoluted. I am going to catch up on Season 2 but I don't know why I even have the urge to do so. I guess I just really like the ads for the new season. I like the whole Level 45 villain idea but I have no hope for this show. I love how so many people talked shit about Lost and praised this show. It's funny how things have turned up but I knew it would end up this way, all along.

seriously, there has been no pay off in any of these season endings. strike or no strike they both sucked. whats the point of watching a whole season to have this pile of shit dumped om your lap at the last moment. kring, you've had more then enough time to get your act together. 3 strikes, you're out

What world are they living in? In todays paranoid world, anytime someone says "pandemic" everyone shits themselves. However, it seems this one cop is the only one who doesnt and is instead incredibly irresponsible. Nice to see that the other cops just hang around the building until the chief there tells them to go to calls he seems in no hurry to get to..

I stand corrected: if they had gone with that alternate ending, the hole they dug for themselves would've been even deeper. Plus, Sulu's "super-power" is pretty lame. As it is, they lost a ton of their fans with the craptastic sophomore season and those people aren't coming back.

People take this stuff so seriously. It is just a TV show. If this season turns out great, you will praising the show, and saying how you knew it would be great. Kring is a god, and all that crap. So, season 2 wasn't as strong as season 1, that is how most TV shows are. Why compare this show to Lost? They are different shows.

Haha. But come to think of it, maybe Tim Kring will steal inspiration from Christopher Nolan's "keep things realistic as much as possible" method with his Batman films, for Season 3 of Heroes. Oh, God....

Think of the best free agent in a major sport, coming off a solid season. That's what KB was; Lost expressed some interest in her, but not enough. Heroes was, at the time, the place for her to go. She had friends in the cast, and she was a fan of the show already.

Bell had three Emmy nomination-caliber submission tapes for supporting actress in a drama, IMO; Four Months Ago (which she ultimately wound up as her tape), Cautionary Tales and Powerless. Has Rebecca Mader been as good or better? She's been OK. Solid. She's no K-Bell, however.

Lost is in Hawaii, Heroes in Hollywood

Maybe KB didn't want to be all the way out in Hawaii for so much time and that's why she didn't do Lost.
I love Kristen Bell as well...

But I doubt things would have worked out better for her had she taken the role of Charlotte on LOST. In case you hadn't noticed, the character Charlotte was kind of under-utilized on that show as well. Fact is, it's going to be really tough to cast KB in another TV series role that was as great as Veronica Mars.
Too Bad There Was No Alternate Season 2

Because that shit was awful. I refuse to watch a show like that again. The writers assume that their viewers are idiots. Not once in the entire second season does logic enter into the show. Everything that happens is forced just to make the plot "work," which it didn't. :|

Get a life and stop reading articles and commenting on a show you don't like. It doesn't make sense. the show sucks but you read stories about it anyway? If I don't like something I don't waste my time reading and writing about it. Why don't you idiots get a clue and go read about something you enjoy so I don't have to read your garbage.
No thanks

First of all... there's not way that alternate ending would have worked, because Hiro could have just gone back in time and stopped the vial from dropping. That's one of the problems with having a character who can control time like he does (which also makes the "Hiro was gone for months" plot line stupid, but that's been beaten into the ground)

Second... a shot that can give everyone super powers... where have we seen that before... Oh, that's right The 4400. Way to rip off other shows, guys.

someone said something about joker up there... dark knight just came out here in tokyo and it was cool and all, but i got a question... why didnt they just blame harvey's murders on joker instead of batman? harvey was his "ace in the hole" wasnt he? it was all the joker (who for an agent of chaos, sure had everything planned to the T, didn't he?)

If you look at it symbolically, Batman was sacrificing himself for the city of Gotham. Blaming the Joker would have been cheap and easy.

If you look at it logically, the Joker was most likely accounted for most of the time Harvey was doing the killing, including the final showdown where Rachel was killed and the cops had the place surrounded. Why did Gordon call the cops to that location? To stop the Joker who was already in lock-up, or to stop Batman who was actually there? What happens when you put the Joker on trial for murders he didn't commit? Does he play along with that, or does he tell everyone about Harvey Two-Face, maybe even finding a way to offer proof? Maybe even to the point where he frees the mob by ruining Dent's character. Maybe even finding a way to blame some of his crimes as a frame job by Dent? Harvey's murders were the Joker's crown jewel, and you know he'll be glad to talk about them in a public forum if you give him a chance. The consequences of that would be much worse than putting Batman on the run.
Why didn't they blame it on a Batman copycat?

There were dozens of those guys running around. Easiest frame job ever. You don't even have to frame a person just "unknown costumed viligante" The ending was cool, but didn't make much sense. (Nor did a lot of things, but that doesn't stop it from being a great movie.)

sit down and plan an elborate hoax that satisfied every fanboy while surrounded by cops and dogs who were closing in, instead of a fast on the spot solution that displayed the character's self sacrifice? Again, if you're looking for Batman to find someone else to blame his problems on, you didn't get the movie.

All sounds just horrible! FutureClaire and FuturePeter, Mohinder with or w/o powers, Sylar andHRG together? All awful ideas. I so want to love Heroes again, but looks like it's not to be.

BTW, I totally agree that having Batman take the rap for Harvey at the end of TDK was the only weak part of the movie. Explain however you want, that sh!t was lame and unnecessary. Still awesome flick, though.

anytime someone says "pandemic" everyone shits themselves.

She doesn't seem to be treated like a regular cast member. She still feels like someone who will eventually get skull capped by Sylar. Maybe just wishful thinking...
