B K @maxmad 4 days ago Avoid. Series One was passable, but subsequent series became dull and repetitive, with poor dialogue and script. All of which is a pity, since the premise should have allowed for a galloping romp of a series and the series attracted some great actors. Sadly, the all too often pedestrian delivery coupled with dreary script and often confusing direction, results in a series that Netflix canned due to poor viewer reception. I'm amazed that Netflix did not see the writing on the wall sooner. But hey, if you like your super hero programming to flow like a teen tv series with a bit of CGI gore, this might be just the ticket for you.

They should not have changed Director and got rid of Greg Beeman because the show really went downhill from there... It was absolutely terrible from S2 and on. See more Moppy T @Hogni Feb 27, 2024 The best show ever created. Were this show here today it would be the one of THE most popular show. How it got canceled i haven't a clue. Some people just don't appreciate a great series. See more Jim n @JimBimBim Jan 15, 2023 Great SciFi show. Good cast, good story, already watched it multiple times. See more Apr 8, 2021 Ah yes. The season where not only you were tired of it being all over the place, but all the little interviews and tidbits you picked up on from actors suddenly leaving and having a falling out just for speaking up etc. (Christopher Eccleston of Doctor who fame in season 1 already had to suddenly disappear, Monica in season 2, people disappearing between season 1 and season 2) on set and very cautiously dropping a hint here and there were finally translated on screen so everyone could see what kind of a person Tim Kring was, with the Sylar/Claire scene where he faced IMMENSE backlash online how similar to a rape scene it was AND how he defended that and similar occurrences (Sylar sleeping with Matt's wife while faking to be him later on was another one) finally was estranging his already dwindling fanbase for heroes. I mean, if you look back at this show and a season like this, or even in season 1 Sanders being just eye-candy and good for striptease shows etc., the woke crowd in 2021 would have a field day if this was showed in the modern age. It's interesting to note that if you look at Tim Kring's repertoire of what he worked with (most of us were hoping he'd never get another job at the end of Heroes), almost nothing ever breaks the 50 to 60 percent ratio of both critics and audience reviews, yet he still got 4 seasons of this AND was able to reboot the series with Heroes Reborn, which STILL was a badly written mess again. It's as if he was an Ed Wood with a larger budget or, more aptly considering with what we know now of what a despicable person he is, the Uwe Boll of superhero shows. We had the excuse there was no MCU, no DC shows, etc. back then so this was about the only superhero fix around, but I sincerely hope nobody ever even thinks about picking this up in the present time. Think a show like MCU's falcon/winter soldier or some of their movies were lackluster? You haven't seen this... See more Dec 6, 2020 It is important that the reader of this review understands that Heroes Season 3 is split into two volumes. Volume 3: Villains is a pile of garbage, and would be a 1/5. Volume 4: Fugitives meanwhile is the peak of the entire series, clocking in at 4/5. Volume 3: Villains has terrible writing, an absolutely awful villain in Arthur, soulless copies of the show's characters that act in very bizarre ways, and a pointless buildup to the "Eclipse" that lasts several episode, while nothing is achieved during it. Volume 4: Fugitives is a return to form for Heroes, bringing back the sublime pacing of its first season and interesting character conflicts- the characters have returned to their old selves again, without giving up character development. The difference between Volume 3 and 4 in terms of quality is simply staggering, but that said, I'm not sure if I would recommend the season to anyone, because that would mean going through the more mixed Season 2 and the absolutely terrible Volume 3.
