Villains – 2 Minute Replay and full Episode
(No Ratings Yet)This is the 3rd time I’ve recreated this post due to the server induced technical difficulties – let’s hope it stays this time.
SPOILERIFIC OBSERVATIONS: OK, who ELSE thinks that Elle is gonna wind up as Sylar’s future baby momma? After what we saw on Monday, we now know that Elle probably blames herself for the monster that Sylar became. He sought redemption – even attempted suicide rather than kill again, but she set him back on the murderous path. If he is ever able to defeat the beast within, I’m sure she’ll be there for him. It takes a redeemed sociopath to love a redeemed sociopath.
If they introduce another new character who can paint the future, he should wear full body armor and a protective helmet – seems to be a doomed powerset.
I don’t get the low ratings this season. There were many things wrong with season 2… too many characters, slow pacing, Maya’s and Hiro’s subtitled storylines (just weren’t as compelling as Hiro’s introduction in season 1) and most of all the big climactic event they were trying to stop was avoided by not dropping something. Talk about anti-climactic! Thus far, Volume Three: Villains has masterfully avoided all those pitfalls and yet all people and critics can do is complain!!!
November 10th Villains was an intriguing peek into the past of Heroes, exposing previously unrevealed connections and motivations between significant events. I know retconned stories often seem forced, and the timeline does seem a bight tight at times, but all-in-all I found the revelations to be both fascinating and major eye-openers.
It seems that some are determined to bitch about the show no matter how good the episodes get. Newsarama posted a whiney post-game bitchfest after Mondays show that was a nitpicky rant complaining about Clair being related to eleven characters (Petrelli grandparents, bio-dad Nathan, bio-uncle Peter, two half-siblings via Nathan, bio-mom Meredith, her bio-uncle Flint, her adoptive brother, and her adoptive parents) and the timeline being off.
The only explanation I can find for the low ratings is that many of the people who jumped on the Heroes bandwagon first season were lemmings who stopped watching mid-way through season 2 and didn’t return for season 3. The rest of the dropped viewers just didn’t care enough about the show after the long writers strike. Firing the writers who not only were very instrumental in Heroes initial success but also who have been delivering a fantastic season is both unfair and unwise and will do nothing to bring back the lost viewers.
