OK, I'll raise my hand and answer that first question -- I say YES, "Heroes" can win its audience back and make us forget the first half of the season. A little more than a year ago "Lost" managed to find its voice again in the second half and has hooked audiences ever since.
But yeah, you could say shame on you, Robert for even making that comparison. "Lost" has been better by far. Anyway, there's an interview on You Tube with "Heroes" creator/executive producer Tim Kring above which is mostly audio. The 'Tube clip gives us the short description of the upcoming season and an idea of his philosophy for the show.
Kring says "Heroes" is meant to be consumed at a fast pace and works better in the serial format. And that it is being re-set to its roots as a show with "real world" characters in extraordinary situations.
And will writer-producer Bryan Fuller's return to the "Heroes" staff after the cancellation of his show "Pushing Daisies" have an impact? We will see.
My "Heroes Watch" weekly will return next week but it's on a probationary basis. I'm only gonna give you a tentative TIVO or DVR notice for the first episode only -- if its cool, then season pass.
See a few preview clips from the upcoming episode at Comic Book Resources.
The 'Heroes: Fugitives' volume premieres Monday Feb. 2.
