In defense of Sylar

Its been a long time since superheroes have gotten a show on prime time TV and for the past four years I have been trying so hard to keep all sense of respect for Heroes.

I watch it for Sylar.



Yes Sylar alias Gabriel Grey alias that dude who kills people and does something icky with their brains so he takes their powers.

I think he’s a compelling character that is wonderfully acted by the talented Zachary Quinto-who’s also nice to look at.

I have sat there through many a season rooting for Sylar-hoping he once and for all, kills that damn cheerleader.

Why would anyone root for this guy anyway? He’s a killer!

Well for one thing, besides the first season of heroes- the show has been pure shit. Characters have changed sides more then I change my underwear(and that’s A LOT),the plot is never coherent and what’s worse is that some of the acting is miserable.

For example- why is Ali Larter STILL on the show- she plays the exact same character but THREE times-as three different sisters.

Or Maya Herrera as portrayed by Dania Ramirez. This character was one of the fan’s most hated yet she was allowed to live and walk away and yet fan favorite Elle Bishop as played by Veronica Mars herself Kristen Bell, was given a gruesome and horrid death.
Then there are characters that disappeared- Like Claude Raines or The Haitian.

Clearly the producers of Heroes don’t know wtf they are doing.

But back to Sylar.

So far they have brought us to the pint where we don’t know if he is good or bad. And now they have given him the ultimate lame ass ending--- Posing as Nathan “numb nuts” Petrelli. Oh and look who is back—Ali Larter as some lame ass character that is coping with her powers, yet again.

SO I have this question: DO the Heroes writes consist of a group of chimpanzees throwing darts?

Because it seems that all the plots are dated and/or recycled. Plot holes are the size of my Aunt Gertrude’s ass and characters are switching sides faster Mayor Bloomberg during an election year.

Please. Its neither compelling nor suspenseful television to allow a character to mope about some girl all season just to kill her off and then make him completely forget about her.

Matt Parkman-I’m looking at you.

Don't get me started on the BS that Hiro Nakamura has to go through. Why does he NOW get nosebleeds?HMMM? 4 yrs and nothing but NOW he gets to get an brain aneurysm


God damn it! What happened to this show?

Is Tim Kring in his basement wishing he were JJ Abrams thus forgetting to map out what the hell will happen on this show.

In my opinion- the only good character they have left is Sylar. People know he is bad and people don’t care.

People don’t even care about Peter Petrelli and how he talks like Rocky Balboa.


No one cares.

NBC. Do us a favor-cancel Heroes. It’ll be better if it were an online comic- maybe then it will gain its respect back, otherwise it’ll drag on for another season without guidance or viewers.

Pathetic really- it could have been great.
