I like the fact that Peter is the most powerful. It's great because the show is set up so Peter and Syler almost never meet each other. But you know if they meet up..Peter is gonna open up a can of "whoop ass" on Syler.

The last 2 posts just prove that viewers are too hard on Peter. He's too powerful, he's too emotional, he's too stupid...
Well, so what if he's powerful? The show can introduce more powerful villains if they want. Too emotional? Well, maybe THAT's his weakness. He has a big heart, can only see good things from others and easily trust other people. So despite that he's powerful, he has his weaknesses as well. So what's the problem here?
Without Peter, who can stop the virus or Sylar? Or other future villains whom can be as powerful as Peter?
Give Peter a break already! I like Peter the most because I find he's the most complicated character and has lots of potential.
I think Peter's character is great. And his weaknesses or abiltiy to be pushed-over is an interesting element to his hero-status. He's like an anti-hero in that respect because he lacks a lot of the stereotypical qualities of comic book heros ( self-assurance, emotional stability, full perspective on crime fighting, etc). And I think Milo is a good enough actor for the role and for this show. I mean, he's not a horrible actor like lets say, the kid who plays Lyle (Claire' brother). He's just bad. And he's not as solid as, oh lets say the actress who plays his mother. Now she's good.
I will miss Heros but Lost will come back (for at least 8 episodes) in February and that will make me forget all about Peter and his merry band of supers.
But this thread doesnt' have to die. We can just talk about Kristen Bell over and over and over. Think about it
the problem i have with peter is that he almost never thinks for himself. he pretty much does what people tell him. it's just a shame that with all those powers he's such a push-over. and to top it off, personally, i never liked the guys acting. it just seems too forced imo.
^ are you kidding me? Have you seen the guy as himself? He's completely different than the happy-go-lucky geek that is Hiro.
If I saw him walking down the street, I would expect him to be just like Hiro: that's good acting.
