I like when a show has a big twist now and then like on Lost and 24, but on Heroes there are way too many twists and turns per episode. Just tonights episode... *** SPOILER *** 1. We find out Nathan's mother knows about Claire 2. We twice get tricked by believed that Simone is alive and that Mr. Bennett is talking to his wife when its actually that girl who works for the company 3. Linderman knows Nathan can fly 4. We find out Mohinder knows who Syler is and then he is left for dead and then for the second time this season there is a cliffhanger ending about Peter possibly dying I like Heores a lot but it seems like they are cramming too much into an episode and in the long run you'll forget 2 episodes down the line what happened a while ago cause there is just so much happening at once.

1) Yeah that was cool but it was kinda foreshadowed that she was keeping some sort of secret, especially the scene when she was fixing her make-up in the pocket mirror.

2) I actually saw that coming....sucks being smart all the time :P

3) We all knew Linderman knew about the Heroes since he's been linked to all of them and since he's been picking up Isaac's paintings.

4) Peter won't die. Sylar is gonna SCAR him though (remember the scene from future Hiro...."you look different without the scar")!!

Not that many really.........Awesome show, nevertheless.

I definitely disagree that its too much; I love that it moves so quickly.

Exactly, if its pace becomes slower, it'll start to lose its momentum. There's so much story to tell and characters to cover, that even with this pace, it would take many episodes to do so.

I like it cause you can't really predict what's going to happen each episode.

Also wasn't simone in peter's vision of blowing up NY, so how could she die?

Also the twist with Ando helping hiro was awesome.

too bad we have to wait until april 23 to find out WTF is going to happen next.  I hate waiting more than a week for cliff hangers.

It's a requirement due to having so many characters in loosely connected plots. They have to keep pushing the stories forward else, as has been said, the show will quickly lose momentum.

The difference between Heroes and Lost is that Heroes actually wraps up some of its plotlines at a reasonable pace as well. Lost has exactly the same problem with continual twists because, although there may not be as many crammed into a single episode, they meander around for half a season without progressing them.

I like Lost and Heroes but the only way I can watch them is by taping them on my DVR reciever because they both have so many dang commercials...every 5 minutes another commercial.

Peter doesn't see the future, unless he's using Issac's power. Peter's visions just seem to foreshadow things, like his vision of him thinking that he could fly or seeing Claude, Nikki, DL, and Micah in the explosion before he met them. Like Claude said about Peter, he's a empath. Everybody is connected, even though they don't know it, thru Peter.

I just got a major craving for cookies when I came into this thread....

I don't like shows that always have new twists. It's really annoying.
