I read that the second season will have almost an entirely new cast. Which I think is a good idea as it would open up all new stories.
If they have turnover like 24 from season to season, it could be pretty interesting to see who comes back. With 24 you at least know you're going to get Jack Bauer back from year to year, but Heroes doesn't have 1 main character.
From what I've heard/read, it's gonna run like 24, where some of the cast will come back while others will not.
See, I really don't mind Nikki/Jessica or DL, its the kid that annoys the shit outta me.
I don't know that I've ever been more disappointed in a season finale. For as many plot twists and they've had and as much originality they've injected into the show, the finale seemed completely predictable and boring.
SPOILERS:
1. Sylar's death was ridiculous. It was like the scene in Holy Grail when Lancelot was charging the castle guards. Hiro - "Syrar, here I come to sray you!"
2. Why couldn't Peter fly off on his own to explode
3. They needed to reveal Mrs. Petrelli's power that episode
4. The interaction between Molly and Micah was gheyness
5. Parkman should have died half a season ago
6. More Candice please.
7. Nothing addressed with Heidi's recovery
Make the fucking thing a 2-hour episode.
