Re: 08
I like you, too, for having said what you said above!
The problem with S2 is probably mostly the pace, but I kind of eel that it was too rigid, or too well-planned. Some of the things I liked most about S1 were late additions, the writers taking advantages of unexpected chemistry, or developing a character further because he's turned out more interesting than originally thougt. That's why the finale felt weak in comparison, it forced the series back into its overarching plot.
And in S2, the Maya/Al/Sylar storyline probably had a fixed ending planned from the start, but they were not allowed to arrive at Mohinder until the right moment in his busy plot. So they spend a lot of time on their journey. It... still was not as boring or repetitive as people make it out to be, I thought, but I can see how impatient people would not be happy.
Re: 08
That...that's it! The root of the Maya/Alejandro hate is MOHINDER! If their arrival wasn't so fixed on his plot, their story wouldn't have dragged out so long and they wouldn't have been so boring.
Okay, I'm kidding about that. It's been a while since I watched any of the series, but I can see why people think their plot was repetitive.
Personally, I think the twins would've been more interesting if they were more involved with the virus plot. Neither of their abilities were transmitted biologically like the healing properties in Claire and Adam's blood are, but their abilities still affected other people's bodies in a biological level. In my dream world they could've somehow been used to combat the virus (I'm no science major though, so maybe I'm completely off with that idea), but Maya learning how to control her ability would've made Alejandro's useless like it did in the canon either way. Poor Alejandro was doomed from the start, it seems. I can't win with these two no matter what. XD;;
Re: 08
For a certain subset of Mylar fans that's probably almost certainly true. A lot of Maya hate on the Mylar comms I read seemed to have less to do with race and more to do with "getouttamyOTPktx."
