Joost: I am in the same position on Heroes as you are. I haven't seen season 4 either. The first season was brilliant. You just felt that the writers knew exactly where they were going and it was satisfying to see all the storylines come together in the end. However, in S2/3, it became increasingly obvious that they didn't really know where to go after S1 and a whole lot of stuff came out of nowhere and then went nowhere. It was still kinda entertaining, but it no longer had that special spark.

Redchild: Oh yes, there was closure. But what absolutely baffled me was

Spoiler

the fact that the colonials just gave up their technology and went to live in the wilds. As we can see in the end, modern day Earth is peopled by their descendants, but they have no idea of their past. Meaning nothing has been learned by the end of the story - humanity is back to scratch. Plus: Hera is mitochondrial Eve? Either someone didn't know what that meant, or all other bloodlines have died out.
