Heroes

Heroes is a show that has always jumped around a lot in order to address the many storylines in the show, and I personally have never had any problem keeping up. But to me it seems lately they are oversaturating the character base and causing there to be an unreasonable amount of real time that passes for us, the fans, before we may get to find out what happens next with our favorite characters. For example, Parkman has been in every episode for the last month, but he wasn't in a single episode for an entire month before that... and I'm sure everyone was salivating to find out what was going on with Sylar. An episode is typically 5 commercial breaks so that makes 6 total segments lasting approximately 7 minutes each... per week... to keep up with everything new they're trying to establish and everything from the past they're trying to maintain. I would rather they brought back older characters, like Micah, who had some pretty cool abilities. I really thought they were going to do something awesome with him after they had established him as "Rebel" a while back. Anyone else think they're spreading their time too thin?
