Really... they're gonna put this on hold with just 3 episodes to go and make us wait almost 2 months?

This show had momentum?
Though, it's like, when you're taking a dump and that last bit just doesn't want to come out and you're like, fucking hurry up already!

Well, next week is Thanksgiving and NBC is airing football in primetime.
And no broadcast network is airing new scripted shows on Thursdays throughout December. It's all Holiday programming. Pretty much every show is going on hiatus until the new year.
It is what it is.
This is nothing new. Yeah I know you all hate this new season so much that you just want it to be over and done with huh?

I'm not as hard on it as others yet when it tells a complete story I'm not yelling for another season or anything. With so many other power based shows it ranks lower then it used to along with other reasons.

Yeah, we kind of want to have it over with. I think the issue is, what's the point of wasting money pimping this out for the start of the new year when you can just burn off the episodes and just gear yourself towards getting a new show properly promoted?

They likely should have started the season a bit sooner so they could have shown the entire season before the holiday break.

It's also just that... that was where they leave you? It really didn't seem like it was geared towards being a mid season breaking off point and just something to continue next week.

With that being said, this has been a very disappointing first season. I doubt I will tune in for the final three episodes.

I miss the NBC Thurs night comedy block with 30 Rock and Parks and Rec.
The only reason i would care about Heroes again if they brought back the original cast.
Otherwise just end the show now.
The big mystery will be if Tim Kring continues to get work after this and Touch.

Having a big gap then 3 more episodes suggests somebody wants Heroes: Reborn to fail. It's so dumb only a network tv executive could think it's a good idea.

They should have started it three weeks eariler so they could just run the entire season without a break. There is a reason shows started running bigger blocks in a row. The old way was far to disruptive to the flow of a show.

Yeah, I thought the reason for 13 episode seasons was that you could run straight through without re-runs and then rotate in another show.

I honestly don't remember where it left off or for that matter even really care anymore.

More likely you just were not that into it. With all the other shows that are MUCH cooler with super powers and better charcters overall this just does not hold up quite as well as it could.
It come back they kill a few characters off screen, make one questionable etc... Season two? I would watch if they do, it's just not that high unless they make it amazing.

The season continues tonight, which is the only reason I binge watched the first part of the season. If they had to break, they should've done it before or after the trip back in time to Odessa.
Mexican Batman's storyline still has no point after all this time. Even his use as a weak point for another character produced no new information for Parkman anyway. Hey, she's going to Odessa, I'm pretty sure you could have guessed that. When Parkman called him useless and pathetic, he was basically echoing the thoughts of all viewers, so we'll see if that was a self-aware moment that's going to trigger something changing in his story arc or just dumb luck.
Also, what a waste of money showing us the flashback of him deployed in the war. Absolutely nothing new that wasn't revealed in the short conversation after the military review a few episodes back.
At least the Katana Girl construct story is actually going somewhere, though I'm sure when we find out her father's master plan is filled with plot holes.
