This was one of the better episodes. Still had the plot flaws, but headed in the right direction.

It was good to see certain matchups and situations. Even better to see a reduction in characters.

The (still employed) writers have been trying to salvage the series these last couple of episodes.  I can understand why they wanted to wrap up this arc quickly, even at the expense of some things not making sense.  They seem to be trying to set up the next chapters as though Villains (for the most part) didn't happen.  And I'm fine with that, because it had gotten way out of hand.

Remember when in season one, Hiro saw a future where empowered people were being registered, and Nathan (Sylar) was the president?  That's looks a bit like the teaser for the next chapter.  By the way, doesn't Sylar still have the ability to shape-shift?

Looking forward to next year.

I've always found the season finale's to be quite disappointing my case when it comes to "Heroes."   Season 1's Kirby Plaza battle should've been bigger than what it all came down to.  Season 2 petered out *no pun intended* obviously because of the writer's strike.  But it wasn't any different here.  Although it was nice to see the heroes not in one location like previous seasons fighting the final battle. 

And yes Sanity Sylar still has a whole bunch of powers that he gained back in the first two seasons he hasn't used, I don't think it was shape shifting but more like creating the illusions around him.  Does anyone else wonder if Ando will be able to keep his powers and Hiro will be the side kick?  Since Arthur's dead there was no way to get his abilities back, and does Peter have his original powers back?  So many plot threads that weren't taken care of, the writers better get back on track or else it's going to be cancelled by the end.

Does anyone else find it funny that Heroes is the Star Trek dumping ground?  First George Takei, next Nicholle Nichols, now Michael Dorn as the president?  I wanna see Jonathan Frakes and Marina Sirtis next.  Or logical choice, Brent Spiner he could fit in.

I too have been really disappointed.  As stated above why does Sylar  not use his other abilities?  Ok so Peter takes the

serum and gets his powers back.  That was fast.  Good thing he got the orginal powers instead of some random ones.  Plus, honestly

did he really need to save Nathan?  Last time I checked Nathan can fly too.  The Mutant Registration Act thing has been done

before.  They could not come up with anything more original?  I am happy to see Sylar back to being bad and Angela is as devious

as always, but  the rest of the cast is .........  well it is boring.  Good thing I have TIVO or I wouldn't be watching anymore at all.

oh little side note....  Nice to see Michael Dorn.  =)

Holy crap this show is turning into Smallville.  When does Loeb's last epsiode air so they can finally MAYBE turn this thing around? 

So now Nathan is the bad guy after he couldn't live with himself in season one if he let New York blow up so now he's okay with rounding up a bunch of Mutants ala Nazi style.  Though it's good to see them going back to X-Men comics with the Mutant registration act.  The writing on this show just plain sucks.

At least Worf became President of the United States.  I thought he was destined for the Kingon council but life throws curves at ya....  :)

This season is pretty much another throw away season...that's two in a row.  Can you say cancelled?

The last two episodes were the worst of any season. It was starting to get good. Then, they threw the whole thing out of window.

I may not tune in next year.

First my normal rant: When do we get to see the bad ass Hiro? I am tired of the silly one

Okay Heroes is one of the few shows I watch live (I usually dvr the others and watch a marathon of episodes on the weekend) and I had so much hope for this season but for the year I give the series a C .

So many avenues were not used - what happened to the girl who could mimic anything from last season? The little boy was in one episode (who leaves a kid in the house by himself with his dead mother's coffin in the room with him?).

They could have introduced more new characters or at least smarter ones. They get points for the Sylar story line but the Peter and Nathan (or as we call him my house - The Pimp - 2 out of 3 triplets while you are still married to a cripple (and where is she?) is straight pimpin') story loss some points. I liked Hiro going back in time but the acting like a 10 year old was stupid. Daphne and the cop was good but the African was a rehash of the guy from the first season - and he still wound up in this season (the finding the last comic arc). I did enjoy Arthur (btw: did anybody notice his body was gone when Nathan was awaken by the Marine?) but the whole catalyst thing was not planned out well.

All in all I still like heroes but they need to step up their game for next season or they may loose me.

I didn't think this season was as good as the first one, but atleast it was better than the second season.  The plot holes and inconsistencies with powers have gotten so confusing because they have allowed people, like sylar/peter/hiro to name a few, have too many powers and to make those powers so ambiguous that its just silly.  Lets start with sylars powers: super strenght, healing, the brain thing, nuclear power, electricity, gold touch, super hearing, telepathy, truth telling, super screaming, "shape shifting", painting the future, the bug thing, alejandro's death eyes thing, any many untold others....so therefore we are to assume that Peter had or now has again the same powers as sylar, plus more, since he can absorb them from others.  With all of those powers, it eliminates all reality or plausability for those two characters because a) they should never be caught off guard, beaten, or even so much as be approached by a foe without knowing they were coming b)whatever task they set out to accomplish, seems to me that it could be done in the middle of a desert, or without ever coming into contact wtih another person.  c) Hiro's ability is too powerful/confusing to comprehend or to be put to good use, which is why they need to keep coming up with silly story lines and plot twists to make him seem like a bumbling idiot.  The characters really should only have one ability, and one ability only.  that ability can be strengthened, but one ability per hero would make the show much more interesting, and allow for teaming up to become effective and necessary. 

This being said, I do love Heroes, despite the execution of the past two seasons.  Fugitives looks to be a much darker, grittier plot line with the heroes being backed into a corner and having to fight for their survival, rather than just for the greater good or the "threat" of some cataclysmic event.  If this show wants more "realistic" and relative story lines, this can be the great savior.
