It would be awsome if Sylar teamed up with Elle they could be like the new natural born killers but if his past actions are anything to go by no way will Sylar be teaming up with anyone and he certainly won't be tutoring Micah more likley he will kill him and then eat his brains... poor Micah Totally love the points you made.

Remember in Five Years Gone, he now just wanted to get rid of the competiton? Can't see any reason why he would change to being a giving person all of a sudden.

Sylar needs to start a training school and get the evil side going!

Perhaps there's limits to what the blood can do; maybe if you've been dead too long it won't bring you back and if Sylar takes your brains you definitely won't come back. So it's still really super powerful, but not ALL powerful (of course, these limitations need to be shown, perhaps by the blood being unable to bring a key person back). As for Jo's question about possible time travel paradoxes, there's a theory on time travel that states that time travel creates alternate universes, thus solving the grandfather paradox. For example, if Hiro went back in time and killed his own grandfather, the universe creates an alternate world so that there is one where his grandfather died and thus Hiro was never born, and another one where Hiro's grandfather was never killed (the one Hiro came from). It's the same way to solve the paradox of last season, where FutureHiro told Peter to save the cheerleader...but since NYC didn't explode, there was no FutureHiro to tell Peter that...Using the alternate worlds theory, there is still the future where NYC blew up, but in the show's future it didn't. Of course, if this is true, Caitlin is probably still stuck in the universe where the virus killed 93% of the world's population. If I didn't explain this well, I'm sorry. This is based off what I learned for a report on time travel I did for 11th grade physics several years ago. Also, TVaddict, while I appreciate that you are offering constructive criticism for the show instead of just bashing it, you do seem to really hate the show now and seem to do little BUT criticize it. It may not be perfect, but I really enjoy the show and think it hasn't been the waste of a season that you seem to think it is. I dislike all the hate directed at this show and it's a little frustrating to come to this site and see negative comment after negative comment. Of course, to each his own. And you do show some great taste by loving Dexter so much. As Jo already said, killing Claire will not stop the deus ex machina blood: there’s still Adam and Peter.

Claire's blood mixed with Mohinder's antibodies is what's the cure for loss of powers (depending on the strain of the virus used to rid the powers), so we keep Claire and Mohinder...Heroes vs Villains ...group against group ....THAT I like!! Jessica can work with Sylar, too:) I’m thinking that Sylar will have a Legion of Evil Supporters -Sylar’s Army’ - which would include current ‘baddies’ and upcoming ones vs. The Group of Super-Powered Heroes which would include Peter, Nathan and others..

I don't think that last nights finale was mindblowing, but it was an ok episode and one of the 3-4 decent episodes this season. Your Hero-bahsing starts to become a reflex without much substance. And due all respect, but your solutions are none. Murder not a solution. Or not always. I agree with you on Clair's Blood. That is really annoying. And maybe killing her is the only option. I don't see the problems you have with Elle and NOLA Girl. NOLA Girl has to get out of new orleans, where apperently gangsburn down houses for no reason. But let her team up with the rest of the cool kids and she will be amazing. I love her skill. I see a Claire, Elle, NOLA Girl Tag Team. The real problem of the show though is something totally different: We have seen it all. Sylar is back. whoppie. I love Sylar. But another serial killer story is really nothing the show needs. we saw that in the first season. The real threat of the next chapter has two ways to go: Sylar (boooo) and a storyline every superherocomicbook has to have at one point: the threat of being revealed. Heres a synopsis: Peter and Matt and the other good guys (did I mention the three girl tag team?) want to reveal their powers to the world. Mummy Petrelli, Bob and HRG do everything to stop them. That's the clash of generations I want for the next chapter. And theres no doubt Maya has to have contact with Homeland Security soon to get back where she belongs: off screen.

But my passion for the show has only waivered slightly. As much as I hate to say it......kill Claire. You're right that it will always be in the back of our heads, "hey where's claire to save the day" it would also give the show a good shake up. But, please tell me your heart tore in two when HRG went back to say good-bye. Also, Kill Bob. He's just not important anymore unless he spills to everyone what all that junk was in the fault. (Do you know what it is?) I wanna see elle and bob face off in a father daughter battle. Though all Bob can do is turn stuff gold? lol For god sakes kill mohinder. Enough said his story line bores me now that the virus is out of his hands. And that damn little girl too. You're gonna think I'm crazy but, I like Maya. Don't know why and can't really explain why she should stay. Oh and was it just my eyes or did the virus when peter nuked it absorb into his skin. Does he have the virus now? And props to Hiro. But, if Adam was in the grave........where is his father. And please tell me you atleast got a shiver of excitement when it read VOLUME III: VILLAINS Thanks, Josh Alright I’ll back down and agree that yes some of your suggestions would be good if put into action.
