Heroes Season 2
[Moozik: Girls Under Glass - Frozen]
If you're anything like me, you've been less than enamored with season 2 of Heroes. The past two episodes have started to have a little spark though and last night, finally, we got to see what happened to Peter and Nathan after the season 1 finale. Every week I found myself saying "ok, I understand that Maya kills people and can't help it, can we move on and put the focus back on the characters we care about?". Last night, it was as though the writers could hear me ;-)
Speaking of which, the whole writers strike has prompted NBC to cut the season a little short. Last night after the episode ended we were greeted with a "only three episodes left..." announcement and then I read today that they're considering season 2 a wash and the episode on Dec 3 will serve as the season finale.
Yet while Heroes has finally found some dramatic traction, this second volume is pretty much a wash. The Dec. 3 episode has been retooled to function as a potential season finale — a move inspired by the writers' strike and a desire to give the show ''a clean slate'' when it goes back into production for Volume 3. At that point, Kring wants to craft a rebooted Heroes that can attract new fans and win back those who've tuned out: ''The message is that we've heard the complaints — and we're doing something about it.''
