season 2 is supposed to be legendarily bad, why do people watch this show still.

also never gonna watch this shit, I READ REAL COMICS.
Finally something we share in common.

Heros alone was just awful, I would rather have cancer and aids at the same time then watch it ever again.

dom what the fuck man. you keep championing REALLY BAD THINGS. like first off

kaworu is 100% right. this shit is taken from comic books and somehow unbelievably DUMBED DOWN basically manchildren books (I've never seen it but panda has brought up the numerous flaws). for fuck's sake both DC and Marvel just had a POWERS LOST arc (in 52, the main three being gone, and obviously the Decimation in Marvel). this really isn't up for debate, he's completely right, comics did everything Heroes has done! if you want to try and argue this go ahead but between kaworu and myself we've got an obscene amount of comics knowledge.
no i completely agree, heroes takes a lot of stuff from comics. the thing is this does not make heroes inherently bad, and kaworu instantly disregarding heroes as a comic book ripoff and not worth anything is dumb as hell. the first season of heroes was absolutely quality television save for a couple of annoying characters (and what TV show doesn't have those?), the last two are really mediocre but still have some great parts.

Quote from: Pidgeotto221
we all know he does this and it's very funny but lets face it its not the best comparison. survivor is at least SUPPOSED to be unscripted (leaks have suggested that almost no reality show is though), while you can criticize him for liking a dumb show, it doesn't invalidate his criticism of a show run in a completely different manner. he's not dissing TOP CHEF or another reality program, what does his love of Survivor prove other than he likes bad reality tv? I like almost any cooking program on TV, even shit like Hell's Kitchen, but it doesn't mean I can't say "jesus prison break sucked last night".
jus' sayin his tastes make me question anything he says about TV quality

dom i think you need to raise your standards of what "quality television" is.  heroes was, at its best, a mediocre, predictable comic book in television form (as in yeah definitely a ripoff of your standard/stereotypical comic book plotting/characters/writing).  this is good apparently??  if your idea of excellent tv is basically what all garbage comics that only entertain pre-teens and manchildren end up being, and what people who write actual GOOD COMICS (heroes has never come close to these btw!!!!) aspire to be much more than then idk man GROW UP or something.

but it's not good at all when judged in the context of comics.  it is completely unexceptional, and that was in the first season; a different medium does not make it better if it is the same old shit with no exceptions, only this time on tv instead of in a book!!  2 and especially 3 are downright awful p much 100% of the time and you saying they have great parts makes me think it is funny that you are such a dick while having such terrible, childish taste in entertainment.  do you like true blood too lol.  im what you might call.....a tv connoisseur

im also fond of the JUSTR BECAUSE ITS "CLICH" DOSENT MAKE IT BAD ! ! ! counterpoint.  g&d called, they want their argument back :cool:

First season of heroes was great, comic book shows up until now have sucked e.g. original spiderman, hulk, batman.. they were crappy and they are considered good comic book heroes.

Bang, pow, kablam.. oh no Batman, hes getting away!

uh people pretty commonly call those shows bad.  they are considered good comic book heroes because that is entirely separate from whether or not their show was good.  no one calls ORIGINAL LIVE ACTION SPIDERMAN good and tbh i dont know how anyone could interpret people still liking spiderman as evidence that the show was well-received.  that shit sucked and everyone admits it!  but by comic book standards this does not mean heroes is or ever was exception; it just means that those were awful shows and heroes is a mediocre one.

dude fuck you BATMAN. not the Adam West one, the cartoon. that shit shaped like half of gw's tv watching. even Batman Beyond was pretty good at times (that ep with inque turning that guy into a blobbo was so fucking EARGH) and the creators admitted that show was for toy sales.

the Superman animated that came after was okay as well, and the JLU cartoon is good kids stuff. like I'm the HARRY POTTER SUCKS guy but I wouldn't be embarassed about watching the Batman cartoon at all. the other two maybe...maybe I turn the volume down some if my friends are around.

Buffy's ending as a comic book, it started as a terrible movie Whedon remade into a show.

but yeah live actionwise, most comic book shows have sucked. hell most movies have sucked too and they got millions of dollars behind them.

ya man x-men is awful.  spider-man is okay but not good either.  the only good one out of those was batman and idk probably superman/justice league shit.  but mostly, batman.  and even then it got less good towards the end but the first 50 eps are easily the BEST COMIC BOOK CARTOON ever p much

also steel i think he meant live action!!  i seriously cannot think of anything good, although maybe the hulk wasnt bad since it gets points for being SADHULK.

I've been watching season 1 again and just remembering things gives season 3 a lot more sense.
Play Raimond Ex (if you haven't already)

Really? I thought that it was one of the worst episodes ever. Someone explain to me why Sylar killed Elle because the writers certainly didn't.

Before Hiro teleported Sylar and Elle away, that dad guy revealed something about how Elle was part of the plot to make and use Sylar as a weapon or some shit.

how dare i appreciate an entertaining tv show.... i gues i should grow up and read some comic books. for this tv show i enjoy watching is merely an emulation... with no substance.. you are right. i am a man child because i do not have comic book aspergers. for you see, all entertainment must break boundaries.

i see, now, that my enjoyment of a TV show betrays my immature mind... heroes! pah! i spit on your primetime television... for the only word i care for is that of alan moore, the only man i ever looked up to... just a comic book writer? i think not... the man is a genius... his beautiful visions Art. i will accept no other substitutes... perfection has been achieved already, young man.. i guess this is something you consumerist sheeple will never understand. me? i think for myself.. i dont have a job yet but im working on it

nah you are a manchild because you find this kind of immature shit entertaining apparently

dom you seem a lil....peeved.  no but really liking childish, unsophisticated things means you have childish taste.  sorry brah.  95% of comics are really childish sophomoric too but  at least if you read comics there would be the slim chance that you would read the few ones that aren't really childish at all and not just SAPVE WOLRD (WITH BAD ACTING??)... but with heroes that is not an option because everything about it is stupid, derivative, and shallow.  it is a show targeted towards a specific audience, and if i were you i wouldn't be so proud of myself for fitting into this demographic.  go watch some farscape or something, guy

also lol dom you are the funniest guy man.  i love how your post is dripping with sarcasm, only being sarcastic about this kind of thing makes you dumb as fuck.  heh alan moore??  heh...heh.... what does this even mean.  moore is a legit writer.  also consumerist sheeple is good because you try to imply something about me being a FREE THINKER kind of guy when really i just think you are a moron, and even if this was true, i guess in this situation you, the guy who watches mindless garbage is right, not me, the guy who would apparently think that it is a load of bullshit and that you should go do something less retarded???

that is the best thing, really.  you have somehow tried to defend a pretty indefensible standpoint.  im dom: well EXCUUUUUUSE me for liking stupid shit!!  i gues you think i should read something that is an actual work of quality *big sarcastic post mocking people telling him that brainless nonsense isn't good*. what kind of person seriously tries to take a stand on this?  i'm waiting for you to have an argument about why marketing is actually really awesome sometime.  you are the best for managing to be proud of your stupidity.  it is rare that you meet someone who is actually like HEH IM VAPID, WHAT OF IT??  you should hook up with wackfiend sometime and maybe you two can jerk off over how terrible your taste in everything is
