While waiting in the dentist's office last week, I came upon an article in Entertainment Weekly, in which Tim Kring was trying to explain why Heroes Vol. 2 was executed so badly. He basicly says he and his team wrongly assumed the fans wanted the second season to proceed at the same pace as the first. Here is the link to the entire article:

Oh, and I'm hoping that there's more to Elle than meets the eye since I'd like to see Kristen Bell stick around for awhile.

I've heard the reason the second season was lame is that the network execs have something of a ham-fisted control of the show and it's direction.

Tim Kring & co were amazed the show was green-lit in the first place. They expected to get one season out of it and quit. To everyone's surprise, it became NBCs #1 show and the execs took a lot more interest in it.

Apparently Kring intended that the second season would be about another new group of heroes with cameos from the first season characters. NBC shat all over that idea, so they had to start almost from scratch. They went with basically the same "save the world" sort of story arc as the first season...

I really had no issue with the direction season two was headed in...my main issue was that it seemed like the last episode was rushed, like they HAD to have a resolution to the season even though there was a writer's strike. I would have preferred a cliffhanger ending and have them continue the season next year instead.
