Ironically, Heroes is going to be one of the few shows that won’t have problems airing episodes because of the Writer’s Strike. That could be good or bad, depending on what direction the show takes. In other words: Due to the comic book nature of the plot line, they have what could be a completed season, or if need be TWO completed seasons, should the strike continue into next year.

How did they do that? “We started earlier and we worked as hard and fast as we could,” said co-executive producer/writer. “We’d be shooting one episode just as soon as another ended.”

Smart thinking on the part of Heroes. And, evidently they split it up into two short seasons. They could combine them to make it one season, or they could leave it where it ends in December, with “Powerless.” If it ends in December, it’ll be a full story, but they say fans won’t be happy. As fans are already not happy, I’m against this, even if everything is wrapped up.

Hopefully, they’ll make the right decision.
