It's sad really

[catalyst2]

I've just finished watching the first seven episodes of Heroes S1. They were so good - I remember watching each episode as it aired and recording it at the same time so I could watch it again for all the bits that everyone else saw but I never did (despite innerbrat's best efforts to sensitize me!)

Hiro's first "Yata!"
Claire waking up on the autopsy table
The near-invisible yet menacing presence of Sylar
The first time Jessica takes over
The first time DL does his Kitty Pryde thing
Peter/Nathan verbally sparring every second on screen
Isaac actually coherent for brief periods
The reveal of HRG as Claire's Dad

I managed to watch until the end of S1 (which was really good), watched S2 intermittently (and didn't like much of what I saw) and then never really watched it after that. What very little I have seen has seemed very disjointed and not too coherent - but that may also be a result of me not following story lines, I will admit.

What happened to that excellent start?

"mess" sems to be exactly the right word from what I can see of much of the later seasons! It really is a shame because there was so much potential there - and some damned good actors too!
