It’s time to stop watching ‘Heroes’

Right after the two-part Season 3 premiere, I lobbied on this very site to give Heroes the benefit of the doubt. Unofortunately, things have only gotten worse, and very quickly.
Ratings have plummeted. The show’s reputation has been harmed to such a degree that even the obvious scape-goat firings of writer-producers Jesse Alexander and comics scribe Jeph Loeb can’t save it. NBC wants to let you know that the’ve heard you, and that this time they plan to get it right.
When I saw last week’s episode, I knew it was too late. I promised I would tell you if the show “nuked the fridge”, and it has.
It’s time to stop watching Heroes.
