The new season of Heroes started last night. I don't know if you can really call it a new season since it is part of the same production run as the "Villains" season. After the last two misfires I had high hopes for this new season. However, after last night I was unimpressed. Here's what I didn't like:

• Hiro has no powers. He's got the best ones too. But I suppose if concept is catching and imprisoning the Heroes, having someone who could teleport anywhere would be a show stopper.
• Peter's power has changed. Now he can only have one power at a time. If the power is somehow tied to ones DNA like a fingerprint, why would his power change when removed and reinjected? I call shenanigans.
• Mohinder and Peter meeting up was just a bit to coincidental for me. He just happened to pick him up right before they were both picked up by the new baddies? I call shenanigans.
• Finally, they reshuffled the bad guys. Last year it was Tracy, Peter, Syler, and Mohinder. This year Angela and Noah join Peter and the bad guy conspiracy. It seems a bit out of the blue. I call shenanigans.

Luckily Chuck is still awesome and Medium started last night too.
