I remember really enjoying Heroes when it first came on, but I think I mannaged to watch two seasons before I lost track of it. Not because it went bad, but I just lost track for some reason.
I have heard that the longer it ran on many mistakes were made by the writers and it got progressively worst, but I can't make an opinion on it as I haven't seen enough seasons. There's a video about the flaws that it had on YouTube though, but obviously it's this one guy's view, but he makes sense.
I'm with everyone else and was completely turned off by season two, and couldn't bother to be interested in the slightest after that. It's interesting to learn the real reason why it crashed and burned. I had always believed it was due to the writer's strike, and presumed that new writers were brought in that couldn't hold a candle to the originals; or something along those lines. But man did I love the first season. Still a little gun-shy about them doing anything else. I guess I'll wait and see before completely casting it off. But I'm not gonna hold my breath
I honestly didn't think the premise of season 2 was bad. I love pandemic stories. But the WS hit and they had to tweak their original plan, which was a damn shame. Plus it felt way too much like season 1...GOTTA SAVE THE WORLD FROM SOME DISASTER.
I dunno if they had new writers or what; I always just assumed they sort of lost their confidence.

One day maybe they will make a Firefly mini-series.
I don't think 24 ended terribly though. The main problem was that you ended up not wondering if there would be an insider and kidnapping, but who the insider and who the kidnapee would be.
everything is wrapped in gray
i'm focusing on your image
can you hear me in the void?
Firefly is getting the comic book treatment.
Like most people in this thread, I loved it at first and boy did that fandom get squashed fast. Not even Sith Lord Veronica Mars saved that mother. I'm having a hard time working up the momentum to be excited. Hopefully it pleasantly surprises me. If not I can bitch about it, and that's a hobby of mine anyway.
But yeah. The comic books are a pretty good substitute. I have one of the volumes. It's easy to imagine their voices and picture their quirkiness in the scenes they present
I liked season 4
The story had some decent direction and it seemed like the show was recovering.
I rarely watch TV series, but Heroes was one of the few I watched all the way through.
This is great news.
