Just in case you missed this.... If you wondered why the show quality of HEROES severely dropped after season 1?? It was because the producers changed the storyline last minute to accomodate Ali Larter's racism and bullying. And yeah, she confirmed it by apologizing in a follow-up reponse here: https://www.vulture.com/2020/12/ali-larter-apologizes-for-racism-on-heroes-leonard-roberts.html For all the old heads who remember all the characters of color dying off pretty quickly on the show or having severely shorted storylines and the storylines in general taking a nosedive... I even remember a campaign specifically about appealing to Tim Kring to do better by the characters of color. Whelp, black fans and other fans of color who cited and spoke on this... Vindication. *smh*
