I enjoy Heroes adding a cheesy element now and again. The show has a lot of smart drama in it and I just assume anything like that added is a tip of the hat to sci fi's cheesy roots.

Mmmmm, chessy roots....

And I have to totally give the show props for keeping everything unpredicatable throughout the season. Most of my guessing throughout the episides were wrong and were only correct when they were spoiled by the ads or whatnot.

And this was brougt up on Bennet's Primatech BB but it's stupid funny that Bennet and Claire have this real nice family moment where they say "as long as we're together, we're family," yet they completely ignore the fact that there's a wife and son in the familiy, too.
