That's unheard of in general, I think. I can't think of a single other time um... ever, that the producer or creator of a show has honestly critiqued their work. Usually you just get the empty promise "it will ramp up soon" or "I think the fans will be pleased with where we're going" or even worse, you get the rare "we don't make it for the fans".

Now I really want to see Volume 3.

Make that a topic of a future post - what would you do with Heroes, Peter?

Hahaha, Tom! This site isn't big enough to hold the combined volumes (1-12) of my opinions about how they should write Heroes for the next twenty seasons. I've even considered spin-offs (Future Hiro (badass goatee intact) travels through time fighting Kensei throughout different periods of history and generally kicking ass and taking names) and new characters (like a teenage hero named Ryan who can adjust his molecular density by thought alone, turning himself lighter than air or denser than steel, and who would start out rather nerdy and unsure of himself, but become a stronger character and an eventual love interest for Claire).

Let's just say I've given it some thought and leave it at that.

BTW, can anyone tell me what happened to Heroes origins? I read somewhere that it was canned. Wasn't Kevin Smith attached? Whazzup?

Boomer: Yes, Heroes: Origins has been put on hold indefinitely due to the writers strike. It had both Kevin Smith and Eli Roth attached to create and direct episodes (I would love to see both of those for vastly different reasons). According to what I've read, it was a combination of not having writers to work on it, sagging ratings for Heroes second season, and struggles with financial backing that sunk it. They have said that they would like to come back to the idea at a later date, but for now, they are focusing on the season at hand.

@The Ash Bringer - Yes, it's part of the Heroes 360 game (or is it called Heroes Evolutions now?). The HG stands for Hana Gittleman, who was introduced in the graphic novel and had a small bit part in the show last season. Also, if you go to www.yamagatofellowship.org and watch the Takezo Kensei documentary you also get to view a conversation between Micah and Hana. Cool stuff.
