There’s nothing wrong with “Heroes” that a massacre couldn’t fix.

It’s time for TV’s scariest serial killer, Sylar (Zachary Quinto), to get his mojo back and start slicing some heads.

Some mercy killings might get the NBC series (tonight at 9 on WHDH, Ch. 7) back on track.

No matter how you cut it, the highest-rated freshman drama of last season is in trouble.

Just a month ago, the “Heroes” premiere finished at No. 10 in the overall ratings, according to Nielsen Media Research.

Since then, millions of viewers have deserted the show. In the most recent Nielsen report, “Heroes” landed at No. 30.

I think it depends how who Mr. Sylar kills.

These mercy kills might instead piss off certain fangirls and fanboys.

Sylar is cool and all. But his killing spree isn't the main attraction of the show...This isn't Dexter. (not saying that's a bad show, but, not my cup of tea.) *off soapbox.*

LOL, I love this Generations storyline.

I wonder how the show will be after baseball playoffs are over for one thing. Hmm...tonight.

But then again there is that horrid Dancing with the Stars...lol

But still, let's see.

And hmm...the kids are Micah and Molly, not Micah and Maya. Maya is in Mexico with Sylar. And don't realize Molly has an important power?

Hmm...and Top 30 out over 100 shows is still not really that bad either.

Every show goes through it's ups and downs, and as has been said sports is involved with the current Heroes down point. A near legendary hero from Heroes-tv.com has said just a few weeks ago that he watched a baseball game while he Tivo'd Heroes.

With Tivo and DVR being so popular I find it hard to believe the Nielson box hasn't upgraded yet to include the real truth, or that it hasn't gone out the window in favor of a more reliable ratings system.

Nielson is a dinosaur that keeps slipping through the cracks of technology somehow. Hopefully soon the ratings people will see this and find a better way to show what is really popular and what is really just filler that needs to be pushed out.

I think what causes it is the fact you neve rknow if your fav character will be killed off. why give over to a character only to have htem die. If they ever ckill off niki/jessica i'd stop watching.

Probly peple who liked hte other killed characters didnt see a reason to come back this season.

Oh man, this better get better soon. =[
It's so good this season though!

It can't just drop like that. *sniff*
Top 30 isn't all that bad, but we need to get those ratings up.

We definitely need more Sylar killings.

I think that's what everyone's waiting for. xP

No killings needed. Its November Sweeps starting next week. Whoohoo! One death is enough.
