Did Heroes really just do that?

wait, what did they do? i watched it but was half asleep... it's a blur.

oh, right. that. i think they intended to be rid of him for a while after 1st season but he's waaay too popular. my problem with the show is that it's just not fun very often. sure, lots of drama, but the heroes rarely get to be heroes. more soap-opera-y and unrelentingly dark. and i like dark!
