The return of ‘Heroes’ has me hopeful
I think it is safe to say that the vast majority of Heroes fans have been gradually getting more and more disappointed with the series since the awful season 1 finale.
Well, fellow fans, I think the moment we’ve been waiting for has arrived. The return of Heroes (Volume 4: “Fugitives”) on Monday was one of the best episodes I had seen in a long while.
They appear to finally be breaking away from the standard season template they have been stuck on since season 1: Saving the world from some devastating event.
This season promises to bring most of the heroes together (at last) to fight the forces of evil and I can’t wait to watch it happen.
With the dwindling ratings in the fall of Volume 3: “Villains,” Heroes creator Tim Kring new it was time to make some changes. New writers and no time travel? Sounds promising to me.
I’m not the only one who was impressed. Rob Owen at the Post-Gazette.com also felt Heroes’ return was an improvement.
If you feel like being spoiled a little, check out some of the new cast members that will be joining the latest volume of Heroes.
Side note: Did you happen to catch the un Heroes Super Bowl ad where the cast is playing football against NFL players? If you didn’t, you can watch it below or on Hulu.com.
Did you watch the return of Heroes? Did you like it, or did you feel like it was more of the same? What do you hope to see this season?

I really liked it too. The direction it seems headed is different and better than where they have been in quite some time.
