This Heroes spoiler makes no sense at all

by Bob Sassone, posted Nov 3rd 2009 8:08AM

HeroesRecently we told you about the major death that was happening on Heroes this season. The only clues we were told were that it was one of the original characters from the first season and it was a male. Well, it looks like the actor has been named, and if it's true then it doesn't make any sense at all.

Full details after the jump...

Kristin over at E! says that the person getting killed off is Adrian Pasdar.

Uh...OK. But didn't Nathan Petrelli already get killed off? Sure, Sylar was given Nathan's memories and looked like Adrian Pasdar for the first few episodes this season, but then Nathan was killed and thrown in to a grave and Sylar took over the body completely. Pasdar hasn't been seen for a while, and it was made very clear in the season finale that Nathan really was dead. So how can this be the "major death" that will happen on the show? If it's true it a big cheat for fans (and people who created the word "spoiler").

Another odd thing about both the E! report and the report from Nikki Finke is that neither even acknowledges that Nathan was already dead and this is a bogus plot development (if true). I guess Kristin and Nikki don't watch the show. Kristin even says that it's a "huge twist," which it isn't (at least for fans). It's also odd because Kristin says that Pasdar was surprised by the move.

Really?

I'm thinking this is a red herring, and the real death will be one of the others, either Hiro or someone else. I think this is all just misdirection since it's neither a spoiler or a twist that Nathan is dead. Unless Hiro goes back in time and takes Nathan forward, and then he dies again.

Doesn't Nathan die every season?

Ok, the character bit is inconsequential for me, the real question is whether or not Adrian Pasdar is gone from the show?

I think you mean a palindrome, like Bolton

Jason was kidding, but he missed the point. People object to spoilers that they can't avoid. No one objects to spoilers with proper warning.

Dude... he gave PLENTY of warning before the jump that it was a spoiler. Even the title indicates what the post is about. If you cannot restrain yourself from clicking the link in a post titled "spoiler," blame no one but yourself.

This was the weakest spoiler I've ever heard of.

Let's go over the facts. Nathan died LAST SEASON. Sure, Angela, Noah & Matt Parkman gave the shape-shifting Slyar his memories and body, but it was only a matter of time before Sylar gets/got everything together and leaves Nathan's body in the dust. AND if Adrian Pasdar didn't know that, then he's a fool and just as annoying as his character on the show. The only good thing about this so called 'spoiler' is that since Adrian Pasdar is LEAVING the show, that means he won't be popping back up (which Heroes love to do!)

I agree. He's character was dead but not gone. I guess they might not have told him at what point he would be gone.

What is it with people wanting characters to die? I think Nathan should still be on this show because nathan is the center of the entire show...being a PEtrilli...honestly I think the Peter/Nathan dynamic was one of the stronger plot lines of the show. And Angela looking over her boys. Then also ytou can not forget Nathan is Claire's biological dad. She keeps Claire and Noah connected. Killing him off is bad. The direction the show needed was to bring all the Heroes together. They have been operating with separate storlines for a while. BRING THEM TOGETHER! NOT KILL THEM!
