Alright people here's some real important news. In case you are not aware the third season of Heroes begins tonight with a 2-hour seasom premiere. Now I figured I'd be an irresponsible comic book fan if I didn't mention this and give nbc some free promotion.
Heroes is a show that takes all of the sensibilities of a comic book and brings them to the tv screen. Unfortunately season 2 was a bit sub-par so here are my three things that I think Heroes would have to do this season in order to make up for the second season stinker.
- Bring back the fast pace: Last season it took almost 6 episodes for things to even get moving for different characters. I mean Hiro was in japan up until the last few episodes of the season.
- More character development: Last season the biggest problem was that none of the characters grew. I mean you could probably make an argument for Matt Parkman but that's about it. In order for this season to prevail there can be no more amnesia stories and no more retreads of story beats that we've already seen before.
- More Action: Let's be real comics are a visual medium so a tv show based on comic sensibilities should be full of action right? Well last season, while it did have it's cool scenes, there was a tremendous lack of the calibur of action that we saw in the first season.
