NBC wants to know how Heroes will end
Sources are telling Airlock Alpha that NBC is asking Heroes producers and writers to come up with a finale for the show.I think we all saw this coming. Ratings for the show have continued to slip since that magical first season, and I think the network (and many fans) have gotten sick of the "this season will be different!" promises.
Actually, I think the show has been good this season. Oh, the first couple of episodes meandered and were rather frustrating (Hiro time traveling again? Sylar wandering around again? Matt seeing visions?), but since they've shown how Samuel is involved in the Claire plotline and in the HRG plotline and Zachary Quinto is back full time, it has come together more.
This could be a good thing. When Lost was given a definite end date it freed the writers to actually have a concrete plan for how the show would progress. I really can't imagine several more seasons of Heroes being anything but disappointing.
Maybe some TV shows just aren't meant to run for 9 years.
