The decision won't come until all the new pilots are completed and viewed by the network, so jury's still out on a Heroes fifth season. And even though there's no justifying it, I have a bad feeling it's going to get another year to waste time and money on an entire season of stagnant filler episodes. What story has been told this season? There's a carnival. OK, there's a carnival. Sylar "doesn't want to die alone." Claire's a maybe lesbian. Elisabeth Rohm is a better actress than she used to be. Parkman is a foodie now. Great. I'm so glad I wasted 19 hours of my life watching all of that groundbreaking stuff develop. Well worth it. Great storytelling, guys.

You might as well put syndicated reruns of Sister, Sister in its timeslot. If you're not going to do anything with the stage, let somebody else have it.

The Heroes finale is on at 9 tonight. I have to watch it because it's my job to. What's your excuse?
