Day Late with change in my pocket

Sorry that this didn't get posted yesterday, but... i was busy playing bejewled at work all day.

So the Heroes finale has come and gone. They did some things well, and they did some things less than well. Over all I was pleased with the finale. It falls short of last years obviously, but with the writer's strike Kyp and I discussed that this whole season has felt a bit rushed.

On the up-side we got to see Sylar being a little more Sylar by shooting Maya. We got to see the Bell shock soem people, and threaten Bennet. And we got a little bit of light humor.

I guess I don't have much to say about the episode itself...

But basically I think that they've made a terrible mistake. By showing they can regrow the skin of someone who received burns from direct exposure to radiation, as well as and eye that got shot; and now from this episode to bring someone back to life... How will they actually kill anyone off? For instance, one of the things that I thought was great was Nathan getting shot; his character was great, and I genuinly liked him; however, he got shot twice in the chest... all they have to do (and I'm hoping they don't) is have Claire decide to save her biological father by giving him some blood. As for Nikki dying, eh. As Kyp and I agreed, if you didn't see them die... chances are they aren't dead. The big promo for this episode was "two heroes will fall" well... Maya died (despite being brought back) and Nathan is dead (presumably)... so there's definately a possibility that Nikki will return.

Now, Adam... we have NOT seen the last of Adam, I'm willing to bet anything he'll return... he was way too good of a character for him to be gone. Adam like Linderman in the first season was a perfect badguy because he truly believed what he was doing was the Right thing. Sylar is a perfect bad guy because he's become drunk with power in a sense, and even last season there was a moment where he looked to stop, when he was talking to his mother... but her rejection sent him further over the edge.

Now, the final scene; like I said it was fantastic, however the whole Parkman forces them to listen, kind of makes me think he might eventually go rogue, and become evil. Because the whole idea was what his father was saying how it started by listening to minds, then putting thoughts in people's heads, and eventually he just snapped... I could see that happening to Parkman. Honeslty, I'm hoping next season they will make one of the "heroes" consciously choose to become bad. We've already seen the Bell leaning towards becoming Good with the, 'you saved our lives', "really?... cool".

Anyway, again Overall not floored, but it definately was stronger than the rest of the season. I look forward to next season as Tim Kring has actually said he wasn't too pleased with this season himself... that means he'll push himself to make next season better.
