Re: Heroes Season 1 end

I loved the final episode as well as most of the rest of the first season. It was fun how they not only brought together different superpowered people to help against Sylar in different ways, but also incorporated little things we've seen along the wya but might not have been thinking about, like when Sylar kept Matt from shooting him. How did he know Matt was there and about to shoot? It had to be because he heard him.

Some of the other unanswered questions are only unanswered if you don't think about them much based on what we know from before. Peter, for example, can't use his other powers like flying because his concentration is taken up with trying to suppress the energy burst. And Hiro said once before how he expected saving the cheerleader to save the world, so that's already been explained: he had stabbed Sylar and watched him heal originally, so he figured he'd die this time if he didn't take Claire's power.

The only frustrating thing about it to me was that he only stabbed Sylar's chest instead of cutting through it or his belly or neck or just repeatedly cutting and stabbing over and over to make sure he'd really die... and that he used the sword intead of grabbing him, popping into space above, letting go, and popping back down to the ground alone. I guess he was caught up in doing this kind of thing in the image of how a samurai would have done it. Other than that, this final episode was exactly as it should be.
