Heroes!

I saw the last episode this morning before work. Spoiler free reactions above the cut, one major, major, spoiler beneath the cut.

Without any spoilers I'd have to say: Good to almost the last drop. There's one aspect that was a big disappointment and the cause of a mini rant. But overall an excellent 1st season and looking forward to the next.

Sylar got away? Are you kidding me? With Nicky/Jessica on her feet and tracking well? With Bennet still conscious and coherent? And Claire just standing there? OK, maybe Parkman wasn't handling things too well by then but Suresh was also on his feet. Not to mention Molly.

Come on guys, I know its comics on TV but after such intelligent and clever writing leading up to it this almost shattered my suspension of disbelief.

I guess thats as good an explanation as possible.

It still grated though and at least one friend at work was also disappointed with that aspect.

I think that Bennet was the one that it jarred the most with. All through the series the man has been utterly ruthless when it comes to protecting his daughter and he above all else would make sure in order to protect her again.

As for Hiro he didn't get a chance to make sure - Sylar threw him away before he could.
