My grandmother died on the weekend. I’m going to try and write something about her life at some point.<\/p>\n
In the meantime all I’ve got energy to write about is TV. They aired the season finale of Heroes* in NZ yesterday. My main reaction was to miss Joss Whedon. I know that he could never have kept as many threads going as the creators of Heroes did, but the season finale would have been much better if he’d written it:<\/p>\n
1. The ending of Hiro’s story for this season wouldn’t have been him leaving Ando to go kill Sylar alone. I have no time for individualistic superhero crap.<\/p>\n
2. The female characters would have occasionally talked to each other, this may even have lead to them developing relationships with each other.<\/p>\n
3. The two characters with the most central arcs in the season wouldn’t be the rich, powerful, white guys.<\/p>\n
Although we are spared yet another crazy, very skinny female character.<\/p>\n
