I decided to post my opinion on season 1-2 and my opinions on characters in order to best understand my future opinions (mainly because my thought process is a little weird sometimes)
I apologize in advance for my English but for some reason I was very tired of writing this text 😅
For @heroes-trash who is interested in my opinions
Actually, it was my second time watching heroes, but I didn't remember much of it, so it felt like I was watching it for the first time
Without further ado, let's get to the point
First of all, number of episodes was perfect, plot was well thought out and I didn't have the impression that the episode duration was misused. The pace of story was balanced, it kept you in suspense until you wanted to watch it over and over again, characters were nicely presented and interesting. humor was funny. In short, it was pleasant to watch
Knowing that the second season only has 11 episodes, while watching the series I couldn't help but feel that this season was too short. The pace was similar to the first season, which meant that all the storylines ended too quickly, often resulting in poor execution of their endings. But I can confidently say that I also liked season 2. The newly introduced characters were fine, and the old ones had interesting stories (well, maybe apart from Niki and DL, I didn't like their storyline and I had the impression that the scriptwriters had no idea for Niki). It would be nice to see the original idea for the 2nd season of Heroes, but I fully understand the circumstances that existed then and the decision that was made.
Now let's move on to saying what I think about characters
Peter Petrelli - I love Peter. His empathy, positive attitude but also sarcasm created an interesting character. How he grew into the role of a hero was well written, and Milo was sweet and sexy. I liked how Peter interacted with others and his relationships with those closest to him were always enjoyable to watch.
Claire Bennet - I like that Claire is not your typical blonde cheerleader, she is smart. She doesn't step out of line and tries to be an ordinary teenager despite her abilities. It didn't irritate me, I was afraid of it because it often happens to teenagers on TV, they are just irritating and that's all. I liked her friendship with zach and her romance with west in season 2 was ok
Mohinder Suresh - (I know it has nothing to do with my opinion about mo, but in the suggested words after suresh word montana appears 🤷)
Mohinder is quite an attractive, I mean nice person (until he's not). It's quite nice that one of the main characters has no abilities, he's a bit like us (who sometimes didn't want to wake up in a world where super powers exist). It was a bit unexpected for me that Mohinder shot Bennet, but I wouldn't say it was out of character
Nathan Petrelli - I have a very complicated relationship with Nathan, sometimes I like him and sometimes I want to punch him in the face. However, his love for Peter makes me unable to cross him out off completely. I really liked his storyline in season 2. However, despite all this development, I have a feeling that Nathan may make a decision that will make me really punch him in the face
Noah Bennet - my favorite character so far. I liked that his love for his daughter made him decide to stop looking away from the immoral activities of the company he worked for. To such an extent that in season 2 he decided to break it from the inside, even if his reason is selfish, it's good that he decided to destroy it
Matt Parkman - whenever Matt appeared in season 1 I felt sorry for him, man he really tries. When at the end of the 1st season it seemed that everything would be fine, in the 2nd season everything went wrong (well, not everything, his relationship with Molly is sweet, I like his friendship with Mohinder) I felt like I was watching some fanfiction adaptation of the type x years after the end of the series, everything it's bad
Hiro Nakamura - I love hiro, his and ando's adventures from season 1 were one of my favorite threads in the series. His relationship with Charlie was bittersweet 😭. The plot of season 2 was interesting, I liked that it was Hiro who influenced Takezo Kensei to become a great hero from the legend his father read to him
Ando Masahashi - I liked that despite his lack of power and initial skepticism, ando ended up being a good balance to hiro. He controlled Hiro and made sure that his desire to save the world did not end with Hiro's death. He encouraged him and motivated him. His crush on hiro sister is cute
Niki Sanders - it's an interesting idea that an abused girl gains a second, strong personality after her ability manifests (I hope I didn't offend anyone with the way I wrote this sentence) when it turned out that Jessica was the one who framed dl, I thought it was crazy but Interesting. The part about Niki wanting to get rid of her powers was the most interesting part of her plot in season 2, I didn't like the rest
DL Hawkins - at the beginning when it seemed that his story would be; he is black, turned out to be a criminal and is in prison - boring. Fortunately, this was not the case. DL gained even more in my eyes when he tried not only to complain but to be a good father and husband
Micah Sanders - I like that Micah was well written as a genius - I have to be strong to help my mom - I'm just a kid. Genius kids on TV are often annoying, but luckily Micah is not like that
Isaac Mendez - I really liked Isaac, it's a pity they had to kill him. His development from a junkie who paints the future to a hero was good
Simone Deveaux - the isaac - simone - peter triangle is one of the few triangles that didn't piss me off, it was so well written that I didn't know who I wanted Simone to end up with. And then they killed her why. Okay, her death was important in development of Isaac and Peter's characters, so I forgive them
Angela Petrelli - I don't know what to say but I like her. I liked that Angela started in the pilot as an inconspicuous woman and then it turned out that she was more important, and what's more, she still leads intrigues.
Molly Walker - she's sweet. I'm glad that she's trying to be strong despite adversities, too many bad things have happened to her, leave her alone, she's just a child. And Molly, Mohinder and Matt make a lovely family together
Sylar - I've always had a soft spot for people with power to steal/copy other people's abilities, so Sylar is high on my list of favorite. When I saw Gabriel Gray for the first time in the episode Six Months Before, I had deja vu, I was wondering who he reminded me of, until it suddenly dawned on me that he reminded me of Jeremiah Valeska from Gotham. They dress quite similarly, they both have glasses, hair combed to one side and wear a suit and a sweater (or whatever it is, sorry but I don't know anything about men's clothes), they are insecure and end up as villains (I hope I didn't ruin the viewing experience for anyone with this spoiler) This is another reason why I like sylar
Maya/Alejandro Herrera - of the two, I liked Alejandro more. Maya is nice and I actually like her too, but her naivety irritated me
Monica Dawson - nice and positive character. The duo monica and micha was great
Elle Bishop - I absolutely love her, my favorite female character. A crazy but tragic character. I can't wait to see what the next season will show
Adam Monroe - great idea that Takezo Kensei started as a drunk and a cheater, with Hiro's help he became a hero and ended up as a villain. I really liked him (crosses fingers hoping he'll show up again) his alliance with peter, or rather how he framed him, was great. He wanted to release a deadly virus so that humanity would be reborn again through extermination - crazy, but I appreciate the creativity
I guess that's everyone, let me know if I missed anyone and you would like to know my opinion about this character
Ps: it's a pity that there was no lizard!mohinder this season, lizards are cute
Wacky ass formatting, i know- Matchups under the cut, polls will be starting soon!
(note: i know nothing about like. 80% of these characters. if their names or where theyre from is incorrect, just lmk cuz i have NOO IDEAA) also i am fully aware of every mistake made in this bracket. whoops

Paul Ellefritz, Kentucky inmate 298777, born 1986, incarceration intake in 2018 art age 31, sentenced to life, scheduled for parole consideration 11/08/2036
Murder
A Radcliff, Kentucky man, showing no emotion, admitted to stabbing his female roommate in early November 2016 multiple times and killing her.
Paul Ellefritz Jr., 31, was given a recommended life sentence in the stabbing death of Kimberly Mayberger.
According to a sentencing fact sheet, Ellefritz killed Mayberger sometime between Nov. 5 and Nov. 7, 2016. She was discovered in the living room of a Park Avenue residence the two briefly shared, covered by bedding, Nov. 14 by Radcliff police.
Radcliff Police Department Sgt. Micah Skeeters said Wednesday afternoon after the sentencing that Mayberger had sought a roommate on Craigslist and that is how Ellefritz came into her life.
Authorities say Ellefritz also stole several items from Mayberger after her death, including a television and jewelery and took the items to pawn shops for money.
DNA evidence pushed the case to a plea, McCrary and Ellefritz’s public defender Adam Sanders said.
Ellefritz’s DNA was found on Mayberger, McCrary said. If the Commonwealth had decided to say the slaying occurred with aggravating circumstances, prosecutors could have sought the death penalty in the case.
McCrary applauded local investigators in the case. He said Skeeters, then a detective, displayed “steadfast persistence” in the investigation.
Ellefritz was arrested after police received a call from Walmart about a man stealing a 22-pound bag of dog food. He was charged with shoplifting when he was found walking with the dog food near New Street, about 150 yards from his apartment.
While Ellefritz was at the police station being questioned about Mayberger’s whereabouts, police executed a search warrant and found Mayberger’s remains.

ALMOST LIVESTREAM: JOE FARNSWORTH with Sarah Hanahan, Micah Thomas, and Yakasushi Nakamura, SMALL’S JAZZ CLUB, 25 MARCH 2024, 7:30 set
I had just seen JOE FARNSWORTH yesterday on a December gig in support of Emmet Cohen and Houston Person with Yakashushi Nakamura in the bass slot. That seemed like a good fit, solid reliable swing with enough interesting flourishes from the rhythm section to spur on the soloists. Farnsworth is kind of goofy, playing in suit and tie and yet very aware of how his career relied on mentors like Harold Mabern, Cedar Walton, and, oh really?, Pharoah Sanders and a cohort including David Hazeltine, Steve Davis, and Eric Alexander.
I got to know him during lockdown when he would take streamed trio gigs and hire Kenny Barron, Cedar Chestnut, and George Cables, often enough with Peter Washington in the rhythm section. If he was good enough for all of them, who am I to doubt? He has an eye for young talent to nurture and for at least the last six months he has brought along altoist Sarah Hanahan, who goes outside more often than your might think Uncle Joe might. Except he played with Pharoah Sanders, remember.
The last time I saw Farnsworth as a leader was also from December with Hanahan and, interestingly enough, Cohen at the piano. They did a lengthy Welcome>Ole medley and then closed with McCoy Tyner’s Blues on the Corner that indulged Hanahan’s modal/outside tendencies. That’s what they did this time too, though Micah Thomas was right there with her. Cohen is one of my emerging favorites and he can go there, but, though I’ve found Thomas prickly, this is his milieu and his discussions with Hanahan were intense and illuminating. I was more aware of more components in the medley with the Ole theme emerging late in the proceedings and other shifts, driven by one or another member of the band with Nakamura standing out both as a soloist and an indefatigable accompanist, before and after it. The finale this time was the ballad I Want To Talk About You which went interesting places but firmly established that Hanahan and Thomas know the canon and the fundamentals.
I have learned not to discount Farnsworth’s projects. I’m pleased that, even as I ease back into the music, that I was ready to take on some outside music. Maybe I’m back.
