    Well, think about that funeral you went to for that very old great aunt of yours. Now think about that birthday party she had a couple months before that you weren't at.

    This is what they need to do with Heroes. Close the curtain at the end of season 5

    Of course, the shows have to be on long enough to gain an audience. Babylon 5 had the right idea - long, overall storyline, smaller story arcs, all in 5 years.

    Sometimes ending everything on a good note is much better than having something drag on and on and on and on and go completely off track and then you wish you could watch it for the two cute female leads but after 8 seasons they got kinda annoying so you want to watch one of them star in a video game movie but even that doesn't really follow canon so you just give up and go to a bar instead.

    @EyeHeartPie: I tried back in college back when it was like season 3 or so. Could never really get into it, but seeing how the stories have developed I'm kinda glad I didn't invest too much emotional stock in it.

    @crashedpc: Everything is better when it ends on a good note! The only other option to ending on a good note is ending on a shitty note.

    I didnt actualy have any problems with the accent.

    But I'm still not watching out of protest of how they stole from the online fans.

    Bad accents are unforgivable. In the modern era of globalization it isn't hard to either find a British actor or write the character as an American. Both options are less distracting and more believable.

    @Harrison_Bergeron: How many trained actors can't do accents? Apparently some.
