I don't know about other people, but I disliked the Parkman character so much when he first started appearing. Annoying and seemingly pointless.
I've really warmed up to him in recent episodes. He's become so much more interesting and dynamic. Really would be sad if his wounds killed him.
Greg Grunberg has really been nailing the part as of late.

I've liked Matt from the beginning!
He's cool and he reminds me of my former Global Studies teacher!

i found him n his wife ,in the beginning, would whine endlessly and,for me, the turning point came when he n ted joined up and even got better when those two joined up with bennet .

Yeah, I wasn't a big fan of Matt at the start but I really like him now. I liked it when he was trying to protect that guy from being killed by Jessica, the whole scene was so tense. I like how he kept the diamonds as well, good on him, it's about time he caught a break because nothing seems to go right for the poor guy. I wasn't surprised when he got shot in the finale, it was just typical of his bad luck.

I always liked Matt, considering my dad is a cop, but if he dies... thats just the way it is.

I only hate him when hes such a weak baby when it comes to his extremely annoying wife! hopefully her death will put an end to it, he doesnt seem to be able to do it on his own otherwise

Matt's one of my favorite characters too! Even though his scenes didn't always synch up with the major plotlines, it was nice to have characters who acted normal. I even like Janice.
Of course, part of that is the character and part of that is Greg Grunberg acting it so well. But still! Matt seems like a very likeable guy, even when he's doing something wrong, like keeping the diamonds for himself or holding the Bennets hostage.

What was good about Matt and his story was that anyone can relate to such struggles compared to some of the other characters and storylines on the show. Unfortunately, this gets looked at as boring and gets overshadowed by the other characters and their stories. Hopefully he'll be back for season 2.

Greg Grunberg is absolutley adorable, his character seemed really weak until the last episode, then I really liked him. But I've always liked him throughout the whole series.

Matt was always my favorite in the beginning of the season until I knew a little bit more about Sylar and Peter had better control over his power.

I'm glad more people are warming up to the character. I started watching for Milo but quickly Greg became my favorite actor (I had been a huge fan of his character on Alias) and remembered just how much I loved how adorable he is.
Matt isn't the most complex character, but that's the sort of thing Greg does. He plays real, down-to-earth, honest people. In some ways, I think because of Greg's ability and outlook on his roles, Matt is the most real and connectable character on the show.

I did not care for him much in the beginning. I found him and Janice annoying. But as time went on I grew to like him. I think the reason being is that out of all the Heroes he is the most normal. I like that he looks kind of pudgy like an average American Joe. He is the only Heroe other than Hiro that I feel is not the slightest bit disfunctional or has issues.

The thing is, he had gotten pretty close to Ted, you didnt see anything from him in reference to Ted being killed

In Matt's defense, he was kinda suspicious of everyone and everything for a while.
But he did go all gun-happy at the end. Pity that was so darn stupid of him.

It was sort of opposite for me. I liked him in the beginning and sort of stopped liking him as the season progressed. I do like Greg Grunberg a lot though. He seems like a cool guy.

I liked Matt last year, but this season he seems to really shine. He seems to be a bit more tied to the main storyline. I'm liking his team-up with Nathan and expanding powers. I look forward to seeing him take on his dad again.

I've always liked Matt, maybe because I've been a fan of Greg's works since he was in Felicity.
But I have to agree... he's A LOT better this season. One of the few characters that really improved, instead of going backwards!
Can't wait to see his newly improved telepathy! Gotta love telepaths!

Matt is a good edition, great choice of actor too, I was a fan of Matt as soon as I knew he was in Heroes (due to the actor), also a fan of him in Alias too

Seriously, Grunny's acting was intense! I started to cry at that scene.
I'm pretty sure he's one of my favorites this season. Go Matty Parkman!

Go Matt! So awesome in "Out of Time." Rocked so much. Matt's definitely one of my favorites this season.
