'Heroes': Season 2's Best and Worst

NBC's great sci-fi hope actually led lots of fans to abandon hope thanks to a sophomore slump. Jeff Jensen recalls the creative valleys and the occasional peaks that have (against all odds) kept us excited for season 3

WHERE WE LEFT OFF

NOOO! Don't make us remember! Please! The critically panned sophomore season for the tights-free superhero saga came to an end with Peter Petrelli saving the world from death by plague and Nathan Petrelli (Adrian Pasdar) getting shot at a news conference where he was going to out himself as a ''hero,'' thus making public the closeted existence of super-powered peeps. Oh, and Niki/Jessica (Ali Larter) got blown up, too. Ugh. Happy now?
