Stupidest/Worst Plot Twists.

SURE! lots of people that get SHOT in the eye/head do just fine. It's really just a flesh wound. (sarcasm)

Thank you for clarifying that you were not being sincere. Would not have guessed the tone of your writing otherwise.


oh, and (sarcasm)

yeah, i have a brother(cousin, but i call him my brother now) who was shot in the head, although he needs constant care now, he's alive. i see your point tho, they really needed to clarify that Noah was technically still alive when the blood transfusion took place... most would assume a bullet to the eye = 'HEADSHOT!!' = dead...

hrg was dead when he got shot in the eye, you can tell because of the few times claire has died, her eyes sort of glaze over, and his eye was glazes over when he got hit, and then unglazed when he came back to life after suresh injected him.

[fatj0]

if your eye is damaged you have to watch out for sympathetic movement with the uninjured eye. that was clearly a protective glaze.

All in all I think we can let them away with HRG 'coming back to life', there's at least argument to support it unlike some things in the show... Mainly why everyone in the show doesn't carry a syringe with Claire's blood in it everywhere with them.

Also hated:

Arthur Petrelli in general. He was a crap villain, he had no rhyme or reason.
Peter losing his powers - fair enough, he was too powerful but they'd made their bed.
Hiro losing his powers - I loved the first half of this episode then Arthur fecking Petrelli had to come in and ruin it.
Peter and 'the hunger' - there was just no need for it, they nearly ruined Peter's character.
Sylar's good/bad complexion - they need to make his motives more clear. During season 3 he changed from good to bad to indifferent constantly.
Mohinder 'the bug' - again, there was just no point to it, other than to ruin his character.

To sum it up the writing in the first half of season 3 was just crap. I've no idea what they were thinking half the time. Season 1, 2 and, from what I've seen of it, season 4 all were building toward something, had a general direction. Volume 3 was like a game of 'pass the story' where every episode would go in a different direction.

For me, it has to be when Sylar took Claire's healing ability. He took the top of her head off, and was all like 'Claire, you don't know how special you are.' and stuff.

This led to Claire discovering that she could no longer feel pain. Which made her feel 'barely human' and thus wanted revenge on Sylar.

We then had to put up with Claire whinging about how she felt. .

But waitasecholdupnowtflolwut?

She did feel pain all those times before? She threw herself off things, rammed her own car into a wall, had all her skin burnt off, purposefully picked up scalding hot things, spent ages ramming ribs and other bones into place, clipped off her freakin' toe with a pair of nail scissors and generally did a load of mental stuff. Are the writers wanting us to think she was experiencing pain then? Cos it sure as hell didn't seem like it.

This is probably the hugest plothole in the show and it ****s me off no end.

This isnt a major plot twist that bothers me, i can even live with Peter not controling his new Empathic ability but the frequent inconsistsncies like

At the end of season 3 at the bonfire, Noah and Angela were talking about starting the company again because Nathan and Peter saved the President and they got funding for it.

But nooooo, season 4 begins with no company and more character disappearances.

I'm pretty far behind in the series, but I just have to vent a little after watching episode 23 in Season 3.
I've enjoyed Heroes a lot from the start. There were several obvious plot holes, but I was willing to overlook them. That being said, I have to say that I'm very unsatisfied with Season 3 overall (I don't think it will redeem itself in the final couple of episodes).
Back to episode 23; this is the one where they go and dig up bodies for Angela with no explanation whatsoever. Did you see how many holes there were and how big they were? It would've taken days of backbreaking, and pretty disturbing, work to do that, but they kept diggin' up bones. I was so tired of that silliness that I almost stopped watching. I'm not joking when I say that I'm confident I could've written a better story than that!
Then there's the sister; so she's alive. Ok, how did that happen? I prayed that she wouldn't tell us she survived on her own for the past 50 years...(people are always coming back to life on this show, right?)...but she did. I was waiting for her to explain how she built her little house out of "dried seaweed and snot". I know, I know, she found some kind of supply warehouse and ate the food there until it ran out then started stealing what she needed.
I find it sad how a show can pull off all that amazing, supernatural stuff but fail so miserably with a storyline like this.

Anybody remember Old Chandra Suresh looking Sylar up claiming he's Patient Zero? At that point of time Suresh was still looking to prove his theory of evolution, but he gave Sylar up when he didn't discover his real ability.

Forward 2 Seasons later, Young Chandra Suresh has a whole freaking camp of people with abilities working under the company. Along with the Angela Petreli's sister and their bull****. OMFG.

haha yea the writers have short term memory
