Heroes season II is just as gripping as 1-- but there are 2 main problems with it.
1. They shouldn't have gone with a second apocalypse scenario. It's much too similar to season 1.
2. Once they brough everyone together at the end of season 1, they broke everone apart. Then they added more people. There's too much story going on without anything being told to the audience in a clear way. In short- the threat is indirect, and there's nothing unifying for us to care about. The only thing that can hold your attention is individual threats to individual characters-- and if you don't like the characters, you won't be interested.
It would have been far more interesting if season 2 had seemed like more of a natural progression from season one.... instead of an, "Ok, let's all go our own way and not talk about what happened at all."
