r/Heroes

In my view, the government could have easily covered up the New York incident by claiming a terrorist attack using a nuke. There was no one nearby to witness it. While it was a setup that could have been thwarted if Nathan, his mother, and others had chosen to act, they weren't required to disclose the Evos unless it was part of their plan. In which case, I missed that detail. From what I recall, they intended to use the New York events to reshape the world in line with their own goals, but there was no need for them to reveal themselves.

omg wtf! I have been watching Heroes on netflix for 2 days. All of a sudden it stopped playing. During the last hour, fucking Netflix has changed it to a purchase-only show!! I was watching because Hayden Panettiere just passed. I assume others are too. Netflix is literally banking on an actor's death, days after she passed! That is so gross and messed up!!

A few months ago, I randomly remembered the movie Raising Helen, where Hayden Panettiere starred. I googled the movie and looked through the cast because I was wondering why I hadn’t seen her in any other movies as an adult. While I was looking through her filmography, I somehow found out that she had died in her 20s from an overdose.
A couple of weeks later, I started watching Heroes, and every time I saw her on screen, I’d think to myself, “Rest in peace.” She was so beautiful and so young.
Fast-forward to two days ago. I saw a post about her death and thought to myself, “Oh, a memorial post.” Turns out, it wasn’t. She had literally just been declared dead.
Am I going insane?

Just Started Watching Heroes For the First Time Now and it's Great! Couple of Questions?

So yes believe it or not I never watched the show while it was on, as I was extremely busy at work so never was able to catch it on live tv or when it came to dvd, streaming later on.

I actually had a weird friendship with one of the cast members and maybe if I'm being totally honest I was jealous or annoyed by the out of no where success they had on the show. So maybe a reason why I could never watch the show was out of resentment/jealously out of that person???

So now with the recent passing of Hayden this week I was like F it LetsGo! I'll watch this show finally in honor of her. (Ironically I was sitting close by her at a fight in 2009 when she was dating Klitschko but never met her/talked to her).

So yeah I love the show, it's brilliant. I'm only on season 1 episode 14 so far. I'm binging it on Netflix currently. I can see why the show is so beloved and it was incredible writing and it pretty much kicked off a new genre of cool badass action storytelling not really seen before in TV shows.

So I always heard from everyone that season 1 was incredible and that the show really declines in terms of quality as the seasons move forward. Is this correct?

Do they like sum up the larger focal point of the story in season 1 by the season finale and then they kinda just ran out of ideas as the show goes on for the rest of seasons?

I recall many felt LOST season 1 was incredible and then I did not find the rest of the seasons to be as good as season 1, or that it got way too confusing and complicated to follow the show later on. Does that pretty much happen with Heroes as well?

I guess what I'm asking if we get closure and all the questions/stories answered or does the show just stop immediately? I plan to keep watching the show until the end but I'm just cautious of how so many said that season 1 was so great and the rest of the show not so much?

They took away Peter's power in season 3 because he was too OP, yet also introduced the butterfly effect concept that also said there would be consequences. I hate they didnt lean more into this, and showed that Peter had to carefully calculate events in order for things to line up, including letting certain ppl die much to his dismay. If even one event out of place, he has to start over and find a new way otherwise they'd end up with a horrible future if he just does whatever he wants with his powers attempting to solve problems whilst also dealing with grief that he had to let some ppl die only for it to be for nothing as he has to start a new plan from scratch. I can't believe they essentially set this up but took away his powers.

Even better if he's a side character during certain arcs where he's carefully manipulating events behind the scenes whilst others take stage, even evolving his initial powers to absorb abilities to also be able to give other ppl powers because he needs them to.

In other words, he's basically Doctor Strange in Infinity War using the time stone to see the future.

for the first time….

In honor of sweet Hayden! 😭😭😭😭

Her death maybe an overdose an autopsy will be carried out to determine. Such a shame recently been watching her in nashville. Hope she is at peace with her brother.

Ventimiglia dated her for over a year, he knew Hayden better than everyone else and genuinely loved her even for a time. Of all the Heroes castmates, it has to be him that was hurt by this new the most.

I literally finished Heroes today and was still thinking about Claire Bennet ;Then I saw the news that Hayden Panettiere died at 36.
There is something incredibly surreal about discovering an actor for the first time through a show you just finished, only to find out they’ve passed away almost immediately afterward.
RIP Hayden. Claire Bennet was such an iconic character, and now finishing Heroes feels strangely different. 🕊️
