Shoot the cheerleader, save my Monday nights

So I'm giving up on Heroes. It was fun to start with, but it was a good 24-episode idea that has gone on way too long. Veronica Mars couldn't save it, low ratings and a writer's strike pre-empted the doom of the spin-off series Heroes: Origins before it could begin production, and even creator Tim Kring publicly apologized for his wrongdoings.

I remember watching the pilot episode of Heroes back when it aired for the first time in September of 2006, and just at the end of the episode, I knew that this show would be the next favorite show of mine.

It was one of the best choices I had ever made in my life...continue reading this article at Geeks of Doom!
