A Case of the.... Heroes - Fall 2009 Review

Ah, Heroes. What more can be said? This series is like that person in your life that you have special feelings for – you’re willing to make excuses to yourself and others to justify their behavior, but when you ultimately come to realize what they’ve become, it stings that much more.

As I’ve mentioned on my blog, Heroes can sometimes be so disappointing because it has so much potential. And every now and then, they do show moments of brilliance (like this season’s understated episode “Thanksgiving”). And to their credit, Heroes has made some strides this season. In the first twelve episodes of “Redemption,” we have seen a significant reduction in useless characters like Mohinder and Ando. And previously unnecessary characters like Parkman have seemingly found a new purpose. And, thankfully, it seems that the writers have finally abandoned their tired formula of discovering a grave future and attempting to avoid it.

Presumably at the halfway point of the season, where do we find each character?
