Regarding Heroes, I only watched the 1st season and part of the 2nd season, but the storyline started to get really disjointed and scattered. I hear that Jeff Loeb and Jesse Alexander were recently let go, so maybe it will start to make more sense.
And while we're at it, let us not forget Elisha Cuthbert, Rachel McAdams, Natasha Henstridge, Evangeline Lilly, and the list goes on and on ...
And of course there is another fine young Canadian Laura Vandervoort, who was Supergirl on Smallville, but I hear has been written out of the new season for the most part. I hear she is going to be in the sequel to the Jessica Alba mASSterpiece Into The blue
Getting back to Smallville -- I also heard that Michael Rosenbaum won't be in the new season either. That's a dealbreaker for me (though I stopped watching regularly around season 5). The whole show revolved around the Clark-Lex dynamic and if you're going to get rid of Rosenbaum then you might as well recast Tom Welling at that point. It's like those long running soap operas where they just get new actors for the same roles every few years -- sometimes the actor or actress does become synonymous with the role. Or to put it another way -- how did you all feel after being blown away by the news of a Led Zeppelin reunion, only to later find out that Robert Plant wasn't on board and that they're looking for a new singer? Bullocks to that, I say!
