Do we have any Heroes fans among us? It is easily my favourite show on TV (although Lost will rival that position when the final series starts), and seeing that there isn't a thread here about it I've decided to make one!

Series 4 has recently started up here in the UK, with episode 3 airing this Saturday just gone.

I'm not sure how far we are behind the American schedule, but it shouldn't be that big a difference. It used to be that we had to wait forever for series' to begin after they were shown in America, but things seem to be getting better lately.

Anyway, who's started watching series 4? I love it already. I like how

Ahh, gotta love Heroes.

HEROES is a lot of fun. I read your spoiler because I thought I had watched season four, but I guess what I really watched was part two of season three. Confusing. :msndistressed: It didn't spoil too much, though, so no worries.

So I guess I have seen up through the end of season three. I still really enjoy the show, but I definitely think it has lost some of its appeal ever since the first season came to a close. I like the entire idea of the show, though, and it's well executed... so I can forgive the occasional lulls in the storyline.

Among all of the positives there are a few things that have disappointed me:

I agree with you that Heroes isn't as amazing as when it first started, but that happens with a lot of things.

I also agree with your spoiler, that

I'm hoping that Monica comes back soon (the girl with some sort of photographic memory, who can copy peoples attacks once she has seen it for herself).

And yes, Peter Petrellis character really is intriguing. I like how he is the complete opposite to Sylar, and it's pretty obvious that at some point there is going to be a big showdown between the two of them. Well, that depends if

OK, I'm finally watching season 4 now! I just finished episode 8 and am making my way through them rather quickly. So far so good! I'm quite enjoying it, actually.

:onion72:


SPOILER up through season 4, episode 8:

Spoiler


There was also a scene where Hiro compared his love for Charlie to C(h)rono and Marle from Chrono Trigger! I thought that was great. :D
I suppose that could be a spoiler, but not really.

Ive not watched Heroes for a long time =[ I think I stopped watching after volume 3 because I missed the first episode of fugitives and wasn't able to catch up =[ I really enjoyed it when I did watched it though =[

I agree they killed off to many good charaters =[ though the original idea around the show was that the cast would be always changing... but veiwers got attatched to the inicial cast so they didn't change it as much xD

OK, I have finished all 19 episodes of season 4. It was a pretty good season, though I must say that the pace of the show is rather slow. Not since the first season have I actually been excited.

That being said...

I hope there will be a season 5 so that we can see how things end. I don't think the show is nearly as popular as it once was, so it runs the risk of possibly getting canceled.

I've stopped watching Heroes. The whole Carnival thing made me lose interest in the series. It's a shame, really, as I loved the first couple series' of the show. However like Eorzea said this series was really slow, and nothing exciting happened.

Well, Heroes has been canceled and thus there will be no season 5. I'm guessing the show will get some sort of chance to wrap things up, but I don't know if the details have been decided yet. :mellow:

Oh, really? When was this announced? It doesn't really surprise me though, but it's a shame that it had to end the way it did (being cancelled). I may show a bit of support and buy the box set of series 4 just to see how it ended.

I was watching a programme about LOST the other day, and the actors expressed how good it felt to carry on filming knowing that it was going to end after series 6, instead of being told you're axed.

IDEA!!!

Heroes could be wrapped up in a film. I'd totally go and watch that, and with a big enough marketing push it could really end up as something special. Then again...I haven't seen how series 4 ended, it may be wrapped up already.

A film may work, but I don't think it would make enough money in the cinema. :unsure: I'm sure they will do something.

Not much really happened in season 4. If you don't intend to watch it, here's a basic summary:

Wow, I really didn't miss much did I! I'm glad about Hiro, though.

It's been on already! You've missed it =o Don't worry, the series was pretty rubbish compared to the first and second series.

Wait so there's not going to be a new season? I've watched them all (and to be honest didn't like the ending season with samuel much but it was ok...) but I haven't kept up to date with the next season (or lack of one). So there's not going to be a new season this year? They always wait like a full year in between seasons, or have a really short season, its annoying and probably helps people lose intrest also.

Edit: I just read the above post and so the season is already going on then (or ended already?).

Yes, that's right. Heroes has been cancelled completely. There's never, ever going to be a new episode of Heroes ever again! :onion19:

Yes, though they are hoping to conclude the storylines with a possible mini-series or movie.

I remember how huge this show was when it first came out. It's such a shame to see it end like this. I watched some behind-the-scenes pieces and they really went to great lengths to produce top-quality episodes each time.
