    NBC have said that they think the longer term future of the series isn't in doubt, but so far have not renewed it past this new one (like they have with other series already).

    I lost interest in this series, but had some time to catch up, so did. Will give it a few more and then see how we go - part four is meant to be less complicated and more back to basics, so will see.

    The idea that they keep forgetting to kill the bad guy properly is getting VERY tedious, though - they did it twice in the last three episodes.

    Sylar is brilliant, and the cheerleader is hot.

    ISTM reading an interview with him where he said he realised the second series wasn't very good and promised the third would be better.

    I gave up on the second series, but watched the first few of the third before giving up all over again.

    I was watching it before Christmas and It seems to have disappeared from the schedules.
    Second part of season three (Fugitives) starts on NBC tonight. So should be back on BBC in a couple of weeks.

    Finally got round to watching the last chunk of episodes this weekend. I wish they would remember to CUT OFF SYLAR'S HEAD - they've "killed" him about four times so far...

    The Sarah Connor chronicles seems to be the exception to that rule...

    i didn't get the hype over Heroes

    I watched the whole of the first series hoping it would get better, but i thought it was pretty lame

    hated Hiro and his stupid excited way he talked all the time, just wanted to punch him in the face

    Try watching The Wire instead... thats how good TV should be made

    Sounds like you would be best suited to Hollyoaks
