Most of my interest in the show is sliding away and I don't even bother looking at the comics or anything. It's a shame.FWIW, they might not be "racist" but the little family IS a racial stereotype in many ways, and for me none of it was done well enough for me to find the home likeable. Monica might be fun, but frankly at this point it's an uphill battle. Sylar & Latins also was boring.I'd have prefered a Candace Replacement rather than a rewrite, but since Michelle was such a horribly vapid replacement, I'm glad they gacked her right away.Nathan's problem continues to be the "baseline" missing. No explanation for wife & kids, nothing. Is it suspenseful to drag out the most basic information in a series?Ma Petrelli gives herself up so no one investigates and finds out about the Powers.So noble, so great. It's not like there was a nuclear blast above the city of NY that provides something of a clue.If Claire's romance demonstrates anything, it demonstrates only that women are dumb and like guys that abuse them. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> I also still maintain that the kid is another illegitimate kid of Nathans and she's dating her half-brother. The fact that her relationship with her father has reverted to Season One's pre-reveal is just badly acted out this time I think. They don't have the means to convey the reversion well enough to make it believable for me.Bennett, Mohinder and the Haitian taking on the Company, it's just been so badly done so far, I don't even care. Either the company is incompetent or knows what's going on, and neither answer means much to me. They know where Matt and Molly are, but they lost The Bennetts and maybe Mica?I'm not sure they ever really explained all the connections of the Company, but if Linderman was in it with the other Seniors, then it's a shame that none of them have taken over. It's even more of a shame that we've seen nothing of the company's response to Nakamura's death.And, heck, it'd make sense if the 8/8 painting was a lie, but I doubt it is. It'd make sense because that way I could justify the fact that they were setting up a new lab before finishing removing the old materials of the art-studio. It'd be fine if they left it to be seen, but I'm of the mind it's just more incompetence. (Either for the Company or the writers...)</blockquote>
