Heroes

Ever since the last few episodes of Heroes' third season, we've known that Hiro's in pretty big trouble. His time travelling power is acting up, and he's started having severe nosebleeds, that, in the world of television, are never good for a character's well-being (think the time-travelling in Lost).

In a recent conference call with the media, Masi Oka, who plays Hiro, weighed in on his character's potentially deadly affliction. What does he want for Hiro? He just wants to make sure that the storyline does not "betray the audience," he says.

"I want to make sure we don't cheat death, like we have in the past and not give it the weight that is meant to be," Oka said. He wants "poetic justice."

And so do I. Hiro is a great, almost iconic character of modern television, and his death would be a great finality that the show has been unable to grasp up until this point. His death would be a great dramatic part of the show, and would break the hearts of a viewers in the same way that Charlie's death on Lost did: just the realization of inevitability. Here's hoping that the writers of Heroes make the right decision.
