Rather, I just kind of felt turned off by it all, never really connecting with it. It wasn’t campy enough to be a comic book homage, not was it meaningful enough for me to care. The problem with this episode was that its resolutions were all on the sentimental side of things: no one got a cruel end, and everything wrapped up in an overly idealistic fashion. So, based on this profile, he worked on a clichéd procedural drama and has no real background with this subject this is not the person you have write your season finale. Tim Kring, an executive producer on Crossing Jordan, had never read a comic book in his life before creating Heroes. And, for this unsatisfying season finale, I place the blame on series creator Tim Kring. The episode was supposed to be an epic conclusion with ramifications for future seasons, but instead felt like a feel good story of redemption with nothing but teases at what the future holds. “How to Stop an Exploding Man”, unfortunately, falls into this latter category. These episodes are instead complicated hours of television which follow traditional drama plotting, losing sight of the show’s comic book ties in favour of clichéd resolutions right out of, well, a lesser TV show. However, there are other episodes which fail to be either of these things. For me personally, it has been at its best when it deals with either awesome comic book action (The overrated but exhilarating ‘Five Years Gone’), or investigations of the personal sacrifice of these individuals (the stunning ‘Company Man’). Heroes’ first season has been a rollercoaster ride for fans as it reaches its season finale.
