* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Seems to have become Sylar's signature move in Season 3 (Volume 3 & 4), as he often delivers one to each of his victims before killing them. Apparently, this is a function of his original power (understanding how things and people work) combined with one of his acquired powers (learning the history of people and objects through touch).

** Nathan takes the role of the AloofBigBrother while Peter is the younger, emotional, and, unfortunately for many, an IdiotHero. Also, Peter and Sylar, according to how their powers work (Peter's is empathy, Sylar's is intuitive aptitude). However, in Season 3, [[spoiler:Peter absorbs Sylar's ability, making him have the ''hunger'', and Sylar has had Peter's ability all along]]. Also deconstructed in a future episode, where Peter summons fire while Sylar summons ice. It makes even more sense since [[spoiler:Peter and Sylar are revealed to be brothers.]]
*** Except [[spoiler: it's later revealed that was [[AssPull just a lie]] and they are, in fact, not brothers]].

* SuperEmpowering: [[spoiler: Ando]]'s power.

* SuperHumanTrafficking: The Company.
* SuperpowerfulGenetics: Superpowered parents have superpowered kids, though this is at least partly the result of a breeding program by The Company.
** Subverted with Niki, Tracy, and Barbara who are [[CloningBlues identical triplets]] (just go with it) with powers but got them artificially.

* ReadingIn: Creator/SendhilRamamurthy had to play Mohinder making many, ''many'' phone calls from his apartment, but the audience never hears the other side of the conversation. This happened so often that when Mohinder met with Nathan Petrelli in an episode, someone remarked on the commentary, "Hey! Sendhil's in a scene with another human being!"

rich idiot with no day job was disambiguated by TRS. As is typical with wick cleaning projects, zero-context examples are deleted as it's impossible to tell if they're actually examples of anything.


* RichIdiotWithNoDayJob: Hiro now owns Yamagato. The Petrellis have money. Otherwise it's pretty much a mystery how most Heroes off chasing their destiny [[FriendsRentControl have money for groceries.]]

* StaticStunGun: People get tazed by tazers a lot in this show. Maybe because all the actor has to do is squirm and shake after being poked by a prop with lights glued on it.

Turtle Power is no longer a trope


* TurtlePower!: [[MisplacedWildlife He's actually a tortoise]], but Matt would, in all likelihood, respond, "[[BookDumb Wait, there's a difference?]]"
