The good news? A few Heroes cast members grace the cover of the latest Entertainment Weekly.
The bad news? The article is far from favorable.
In fact, the magazine's cover reads: “Oh great… Now the cheerleader, the world and the show need to be saved. But is it too late?”
Is Heroes a show in crisis, as the magazine suggests?
Welcome to our weekly critique of Heroes.
It's a show we love - as we often must remind readers that misinterpret our analysis - yet it's one that can be awfully aggravating in its lack of logic and/or misuse of characters.
The focus is on the latter issue this week, as the death of Adam Monroe at the hands of Arthur Petrelli has our staff lamenting what might have been... and what used to be.
Monroe was the main villain last season. With Sylar sidetracked, the man formerly known as Takezo Kensei seemed like the perfect focus for the show. He and Hiro had great chemistry, that's for sure.
It may have taken too long for him to escape feudal Japan, but eventually Monroe was established as a former member of The Company, a man imprisoned by Mr. Nakamura for his desire to destroy the world through a virus.
Welcome to our 16th Heroes Round Table.
While fans of the show gather in the 
Will HRG and Meredith make a good team?
Timex: Only if they go up against horny male villains who do nothing but drool over Meredith. The use of fire doesn't seem very effective against some of the bad asses we've met.
A. Hiro: I'm not a fan of Meredith's use this season. Previously, she was nothing more than a weak individual who used her ability to light a cigarette in her trailer. Now, she's proven enough to team up with my main man, HRG?!?
Milover: Maybe. But I'm just excited for when Claire finally partners with her father.
So, Daddy Petrelli is a serious baddie, huh?
That was the major lesson to be learned from this week's Heroes episode. But what about the week to come?
Our thanks to Kristin from E! Online for this sneak peek at future developments on our favorite show...
All for One, One for All: Peter may have been stripped of his power, but Sylar retains his abilities - and appears to join forces with Arthur Petrelli. Will he become a pawn in Pinehearst's plan for world domination? It might seem that way, but keep this in mind: Peter and Sylar are both major mama's boys.
Danger for Daphne: A Hero is marked for death. According to insiders, producers planned to kill off Daphne toward the end of this chapter, but that plan has likely been scrapped. Do you wanna see the Speedster find her happily ever after with Parkman?
Elle Returns: Hooray!! Kristen Bell is back next week as Elle. Reportedly, her abilities now control her. She's overcome by the electrical forces within her, and when she can't find HRG to assist her, Elle goes with the next best thing: Claire. Indeed, next week Claire and Elle try to team up against Pinehearst.
The latest Heroes episode worked well because it remained true to the developing, constant narrative: a gathering of villains to serve the purposes of Pinehearst's boss, Arthur Petrelli.
In that context, we watched Daphne interact with (future husband?) Parkman for the first time, along with Sylar express actual feelings for Angela. Who woulda thought?!?
