		<description>hey its AKRO again with another rant. I used to watch Heros religiously but after the first season, it seemed like it went haywire and all over the place, not to mention that I had school on the night it was usually on. I tried to watch the missed episodes on the net but it just got too lame for me.</description>

		<description>My thoughts? You&#039;re right, it&#039;s Krings fault and he&#039;s using the 2 writers as scape goats. Let&#039;s a dig a little deeper to the down fall of the show. Heroes is experiencing what i like to call The O.C Syndrome.

What happens with this syndrome is that due to poor planning and a lack of creative direction, the show hits it&#039;s peak with the first season. Subsequent seasons will try to emulate the success but that&#039;s like trying to keep a falling ball floating, it&#039;s impossible.

The first season had us all wondering about connections the characters had with one another, like the writers were hinting that there was something bigger behind it all that would be slowly revealed, but because &#039;Heroes&#039; caters for the lowest common denominator (like The O.C), Tim Kring went ahead and just gave us what we thought we wanted. Note for Tim Kring, people are stupid, they have expectations that they want to be met, not knowing that if they get what they want, they will not like it. Play with their expectations you dolt.

Awhile ago, Heroes and Lost were often compared to each other, because perhaps, just maybe, Heroes would go on the same path and create a mesmerizing mythology in a universe with solid rules and boundaries where new events do not conflict with past events but shed new light on them. We were wrong.

A very basic analogy for this whole mess is that Tim Kring is a young man who is sexually inexperienced, and given the opportunity to please a woman, he came too soon. He came all over the place in season 1, spurting out all this stuff, but now he&#039;s empty and limp, and the woman has gone back to her husband (Lost) and her poolboy (Arrested Development).

&#039;Heroes&#039; can not be saved. The only way to keep this franchise going is to cancel the current show with a cliffhangar finale, then start a spin off series that takes us back to square one, and this time, have basic plots and arcs planned in advanced so when the series is done, the entire series works as a whole, instead of this piece of shit we currently have that&#039;s half runny and with bits of corn in it.</description>
