Agree 100%. The focus on Claire and Noah has gotten ridiculous. What happened to the ensemble cast? Just boring boring boring. 
How did Heroes get SO AWFUL?!

At least before they used to wait a few episodes before they started undoing things, but in this past episode no sooner did Matt trap Sylar in his brain than Peter shows up to pull him out again. And after killing people for their powers, learning how to take powers without killing people, and deciding he prefers to kill people for their powers Sylar now wants to get rid of his powers?

Make Sylar a good guy so it fits the future "Good Guy" Sylar story-line. I like the Hiro story-line this season and Noah is definitely the best character on the show with Peter dead last. Claire's lesbian girlfriend is getting boring too. It doesn't seem to fit the atmosphere of the show. I will keep watching the show since I like the characters, however killing off Lydia was kinda dumb. UNless they plan to bring her back by having Hiro put on a bullet proof vest and save her as he did with Mohinder, her death was meaningless.

I agree.. Peter is still a wimp, and Hiro has no sword and trench-coat anymore.. Peter will need to get his powers back where he can use them all at once.. This one at a a time thing is boring in my opinion.

I agree Peter is just some dork taking everybody's powers for a test drive.

At first I liked the idea that Peter had to choose which power he used to do his "Superman" deeds. First he liked Claire's powers best because he could heal people, then he took the empath's powers so he could arrive on the scene faster. Now its just flavor of the week stuff.
Never could get into this show, despite it being very much up my alley. Not even the much praised first season. I've since heard nothing but bad things about it from those that once liked it.
Man the Sylar character is such a mess right now...They have no clue what to do with the character anymore,i suggest they start thinking about an ending to it all,they are clearly out of ideas.Ending the company and revealed everything about them so early messed up the show,keep the mystery alive and reveal little by little leading up to the final solution in the end,kinda like Lost.
I wonder how they will explain how people got their powers,that should have been something the Company could be involved in.

I agree with you on that one. The Company was such a great device...were they responsible for creating the powers?? Why were they the only organization that knew about the powers??? Who led/funded the Company?? I know that it was already repetitive by the season 2 Villains stories, but at least you got to see what happened to people that were captured by the Company.

Going from my admittedly foggy memory, weren't the powers somehow related to the eclipse seen in the show's opening credits? I know that storyline was conveniently forgotten from season 2 onwards, and has been contradicted a few times due to events seen in more recent episodes.
Last night's episode wasn't too bad, despite way too much Claire and Noah garbage. The Peter/Sylar storyline was interesting in a surreal kind of way, but we're left yet again with good Sylar, which was a mistake the last time they tried that in season 3.
What's become painfully apparent is that Heroes works better in smaller story arcs of four or five episodes each. These season-long stories just drag on endlessly in the middle, which is why viewership always plummets after the first few episodes of the season. They'd be better off dividing each season into 4 self-contained stories than one overarching story arc in order to maintain interest.

I usually am pretty supportive of scifi dramas on regular channels but they literally sucked the life out of all the characters on the show, and I can't watch it anymore

This is what they went with for that season, but they also went on with the Company/government conducting research on people with abilities. This also showed how a couple of the protagonists were connected...Suresh's father was one of the Dr.'s doing the research and Peter's mother was one of the test subjects. I really liked this storyline because I felt it added more to the whole conspiracy theory vibe.
I liked last night's episode but it underscored what I am coming to believe is Heroe's biggest problem: Claire and Noah. I actually really got into the Peter/Sylar story line, I missed Hiro and Ando, but the whole claire/noah thing.. sheesh.

The problem with Claire and Noah in last night's episode is that its happened in every other season. We find out more about his past, Claire gets pissed at him, then makes up with him and decides he's really not that bad. At least last night it all happened in one episode. Usually it spans most of the season.
Peter and Sylar were the same. Since season 2 Sylar hasbecome a good guy for a little while in each season.

in my opinion Sylar should have skipped all the season since the first. Peter and Nathan's father should have been a bigger Big Bad and they should've kept future Peter. And could the deaf cello player be any closer to the Umbrella Academy????
