OK, folks. So what did you think of the Heroes Season 2 premiere?
I thought it was just so-so. I get that they want to re-introduce some of the old characters to both bring old viewers back into the fold and give new viewers a chance to start fresh, but I would have liked to have seen just a little bit more action (not fight scenes per se, but more plot), and a little less teasing.
That said, I’m sorta curious about what this year’s mystery will turn out to be.

On the character side, I’d like to see more of Parkman. I always found him to be one of the most relatable characters because his power seems less "out there." He can read minds, but he struggles with it, and it can only help him so much. He doesn’t have extra strength or speed or time traveling abilities, so he has to learn how to use the information he can glean from others. Plus, he’s just a good guy trying to do right in day-to-day life with the extra ability. And because he only hears thoughts, he doesn’t have to "hide" from society. He’s out in the open.
Then again, so far, I think Hiro’s setting is ridiculous. His time trip back to 1600s Japan may turn out to be very cool–and I hope it pays off–but to start, I’m finding it a big, big dud that seems staged. Not the least bit natural or interesting.
Well, that’s my two cents. What did you think?
