Title: Heroes question
Post by: Viking on January 05, 2010, 04:45:55 PM
In the first couple of seasons Peter Petrelli can get another hero's ability by just thinking about them.. now he needs to touch and then only  gets one at a time. Any explation?

He always needed to touch them. I haven't seen past season 3 though.

His dad stole his powers for a while in the last series. When he got them back it was this reduced one at a time version. I can't remember him having to touch them before hand either, just being near them- I remember one or two scenes of shock when a new power unexpectedly kicked in due to a new hero nearby.
The writers realised that he was getting more and more powerful to the extent it was getting quite like justice league and superman- the other heroes need only cheer him on whilst super Peter stops every villain within one episode.
What is odd is that his new version of the power still works with the Haitian aroundl.
And yes. Heroes really really lost its way after the first series.

Season one was amazing, season two...eh.

I'm afraid to watch season 3, should I bother?

Heroes jumped the shark officially at the end of the third season.  But it was struggling from the end of season 1.

Looking back I'd say the highpoint was the late 1st season episode Company Man.  After that it was all downhill.

Way overrated. Half the chicks who've been on the show have been hotter than her. Kimberly Williams, Ally Larter, Jayma Mays, Madeline Zima...

I've been following season 4 and I haven't quite made up my mind whether it's reasonable TV or plain fucked up.

They should've just quit while they were ahead with season 1.

Heroes S4 feels a lot like Prison Break or Lost at this point, with what appears to be a story line hastily cobbled together by a bunch of people who consider the story already told, and are unwilling or unable to take it further without fucking it up.

Writers say: We're done.

Network says: We need another season.

Result is: Shit.

From what I've read of what  the creator has said it seems to be more like
"Blimey...This little superhero series I thought up turned out to be good...errr how the hell did that happen? And why my superhero series? Why does no one like all those family dramas I pitched!"
