I enjoyed Heroes Reborn. It was exactly what I wanted, and exactly the tone and feel that Heroes Season 2 should have been, imho.
The only problem is, the Heroes train has left the building. What Heroes was a deconstruction of is now in full tilt swing in theaters, and at high quality.
So while I enjoyed it, I enjoyed it in a sort of what-if bubble. Even the show was still shifting under the weight of Season 1 Heroes-mania and the crash that followed. It's hard to forget the Caitlin fiasco when the villain of the show is defeated by the same fate. And that weight, no matter how beautiful and pure the Heroes concept is/was, no matter how great it should have been, it really is ruined. Something could be salvaged, I think, but tbh, I need, like a whole season apology for Heroes seasons 2 and 3 before I can begin to get the Season 1 level hype I felt. And you have to wonder if it might just be better to tell a new story and let the production of Heroes be a cautionary tale.
