I didn't even stay patient for as long as you guys did, I lost interest after BDM 4: The Return of Ma Baker. This is where I thought Joss just completely ran out of ideas. Seriously, a working time portal in the cargo bay that "nobody happened to notice" for, well, how many years!? And the Boney M soundtrack just didn't fit into the whole Western theme. They should've kept it a trilogy.

I thought they explained that with the whole 'chronoton particle' thing...plus having Jayne try to listen to the past, then havin' his ear go through without the rest of him, well, THAT'S entertainment!

Supernatural - Not let me down yet!

Sorry Big 'C' but if ever there was a show that was clearly unable to control it's success it was this one.

I was so dismayed when at the start of season two they resorted to doing exactly what they had done with season one. I forgave them the anti-climax in the last episode as it was.

They should have focussed on the Cop dude - he was acting all the others out the park.

Heroes no more :(

Hmm. Not sure. I doubt it though. I didn't find Peter the most interesting of characters to be honest. In fact I really only tuned in for the cop and claires father. But because of the format of the show you had to endure lesser heroes; after 20 episodes or so that becomes difficult...

Hiro - the spin off would be interesting :D

You know, it really bugs me that season 2 of HEROES only had about a handful of iffy episodes and yet everyone was willing to call it a lost cause, while LOST spent a season and a half up it's ass, and yet everyone was willing to give that a pass.

I agree Lost season 3 was pretty boring, but season 4 IMO was the best season so far. It was kind of mind blowing.

ReginaRoadie, that's probably because Lost season 2 was considerably better than Heroes season 2. I watched the first 4 episodes of Heroes season 2 before giving up (after really enjoying season 1) and each of those episodes I felt wasn't just iffy, it was very poor. There's only one episode of Lost I'd classify as very poor, and that's season 3's "Stranger in a Strange Land".

Maybe the first half was boring, after that it kicked ass.
