catalyst2 | Still can't see it!

I've just sent most of the last few days watching the first 16 episodes of S3 Heroes, all the way up to Building 26 and a curious thing has happened. I have liked, understood and followed all of the episodes so far! Sure, it's not TV perfection but the tale sure is twisty and turny - and this is exactly what was difficult with it first time through.

For me, I found it hard to watch S3 when it was on TV because, in addition to the 18 month delay we had here between the end of S2 and the start of S3, they changed the time-slot, pre-empted it a few times and generally screwed with the schedule. With a story as complex as this one, missing a single scene, let alone an entire episode, meant I lost the entire thread, especially as Sylar flipped and flopped from one extreme to the other faster than a thrashing fish on the beach. Hell, at times, missing even a single sentence changed the meaning of a scene. Added to this is that the main protagonist for the season has changed at least three times already.

Overall, I am still engaged and absorbed. Perhaps I'll even manage to watch the entire season and be OK with it? Tomorrow will tell.
