What I want to know is, if you only watched season two, how can you possibly hate Maya for being "annoying and pointless" and yet still like Claire? Not that Maya's storyline was perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but Claire's endlessly whiny emo high school boyfriend drama made me want to claw my eyeballs out way more than Maya ever did.

Claire's endlessly whiny emo high school boyfriend drama was really irritating, but the difference for me was that Claire was much less passive. She has powers, she used them; she got angry at her father; she was willing to fight. Maya would do shit (granted, not of her own volition) and then wibble about it until her brother made it all okay; she had no agency. And really, none of this is Maya's fault—she might have been an interesting character, but the storyline wasn't integrated into the rest of the show at all, so the show didn't make you care about her. Every time she was on the screen I was like, "can we go back to Hiro? or Claire? or Monica? or DL?" And Sylar showing up part way through Maya's story made me care even less; there are no words for how much I completely cannot stand Sylar.

To be honest, I watched Heroes because some friends of mine were watching it and a lot of racial issues with it came up on [livejournal.com profile] deadbrowalking and I wanted to see for myself. But I don't actually like good v evil, and while I understand from the fans that season 2 wasn't very good, watching the race weirdness for myself wasn't enough reason to sit through a lot of other things I didn't care about. So I'm probably really unfair in how I dislike this show.
