Does anybody get the whole Mid-Season 2 of Twin Peaks feeling from Heroes right now? The show is just getting ridiculous with random plots and characters, while nothing really happens. And the whole present and future bullshit is not making the show any better.

Yeah, I never followed the show but I heard how the second season was just so incredibly awful. Surprising that you say it's still bad since I thought all the reviewers were like "It's back now!!"

Someone called last week and asked about Entourage. Anybody on FOT watch that show? It's one of the few shows I've followed from pilot to today and I never really liked it, but feel I have no choice but to watch it. I agree with the caller though. That episode with Eric Roberts was just so bizarre. It's either the worst or best episode of the show.

Heroes sucks so much this season and I was a season 2 apologist.

Hey Bubbles was on tonight (Andre Royo was totally wasted of course)!

I cannot take much more of Heroes. Learn the lesson of Lost. At a certain point, kill off or marginalize your dull characters. Suresh has been pulling down the show since Season One. Likewise Ando. And for God's sake, remember that this is a story. You are not duty-bound to report on all the characters, you are duty-bound to make those characters serve the plot. Don't tell us what each character is up to, don't give them all their own little things to do, tell us a story.

To be fair, that would leave the show with only 3-5 characters.

I'll be skipping the debate but I'm not really in any hurry to watch the finale. This season has been mostly boring/annoying.  Top Chef can't come soon enough.

Wow, I'm glad I never even bothered to start watching it again.  I've given up on so many current shows recently and am re-watching season one of the Sopranos and catching up on Netflix instead.

I agree that lots of the designers were boring, but Kenley kept things entertaining at least. I'm torn between  her and Leanne.

How could you be torn between them?  Kenley is probably the most annoying person I've ever seen on the show (yes, I know she had a hard life on the tugboat).  Seriously, how can you treat Tim Gunn like dirt?  At least Leanne is just quietly passive aggressive.

I'm glad it's moving to Lifetime so I can totally forget to watch it.

I am skipping the date for reasons I hope to make clear on tonight's show.

I don't care about the tugboat, and she's an absolute brat--- but she makes me laugh because she's so ridiculous. And her clothes are really fun.  Leanne is cute, sure, and her clothes are really awesome, but she has this droopy-hipster-Chan Marshall-Portland thing going on that makes me want to shake her really hard. So they're about even.

Kenley is the best.  She's temperamental and a brat, but aren't artists supposed to be passionate and stubborn about their art?  Also, what's the technical term for the little speech impediment she has (kind of a soft lisp).  Whatever it is, it's kind of sexy.

OH SHIT! NO RESERVATIONS IS BACK ON WITH NEW EPISODES! SPAIN!

KENLEY WAS ROBBED. I was actually really pulling for her in the end. Then they predictably went and picked Leanne. BORING.
