Heroes Season 4 Arriving August 3rd on DVD and Blu Ray

Heroes Season 4 “Redemption” has been given an official street date.  While it’s not as early as some reports had speculated, at least we won’t have to wait until September.  August 3rd is the official date that Universal has promised to release the 4th and final season of Heroes.  We’re accustomed to getting commentary on almost every episode but it’s been scaled back just a bit this time around.  Fortunately there’s a decent amount of other special features to keep us entertained.  You can pre-order through Amazon via The 10th Wonder special links and you’ll be guaranteed the lowest price between now and the actual release.

Tim Kring Outlines Potential Mini-Series

We’ve all been waiting anxiously to see what (if anything) would come of the Heroes cancellation.  While we hoped we’d get a solid indication right after the up fronts, we were still left wondering if we had seen the last of Heroes.  Well we’ve got some good news and some potential bad news. Let’s just start off with the good news.  Tim Kring has outlined his idea for a wrap-up mini series that involves a one year time jump, Claire as the spokesperson, some of our specials exposed while others hide, and the big kicker; somehow bringing back the beloved Adrian Pasdar.  I’d like to point out it won’t be in the form of Nathan Petrelli and I’m not really sure how that will work.  Now the bad news.  Tim Kring is confident that all the cast members are on board for this, but it can be very very tough to bring back a cast of this size while they’re trying to move forward with their careers.  Additionally, NBC still needs to  green light this project and that’s the biggest hurdle.  NBC hasn’t had the best track record as of late and it could be difficult for them to fund the event (no pun intended).  We’d like to remain optimistic and NBC did say they would like to appease the fans, but it’s pretty tough to bring something together in these kinds of situations.  So far NBC has not commented on anything but keep your fingers crossed!  You can read the full story at TVGuide.com “Is there Power Left in Heroes”

NBC Officially Cancels Heroes

It’s a sad day for Heroes fans… NBC has officially canceled the show.  We’ll have a lot more to talk about as more information is given by NBC. There are also many people to thank for the last 4 seasons but  right now it’s all still sinking in.  I don’t want to leave anyone out, including all the fans so we’ll update you soon.  Expect somewhat of a response, retrospect and a special thanks to everyone through the years.  With that said, we wanted to at least get the main story out.  We do have word from TheODI and Deadline Hollywood that NBC may still be planning a finale event to give us some closure.  While it’s not even close to the fans getting a full season of our favorite show, it’s still something to [potentially] look forward to.

NBC Officially Cancels Heroes; TV Movie Still Possible

Heroes Now Likely to be Canceled?

After all the positive news we received regarding the return of Heroes for a 5th season run, more and more reports are coming in stating the opposite.  Vulture.com broke the news yesterday morning with the headline “Vulture Learns NBC Is Likely to Cancel Heroes“.  If that wasn’t enough the story spread like wildfire and was picked up by many news outlets.  Our good friends over at TheODI.com quickly reached out to their NBC contacts.  While NBC expressed their concern for this information being out there, they did say “It does not look good, BUT there is still a chance for Season 5.” Furthermore Grunberg had an interesting tweet this morning “The Fat Lady is doing her vocal warm-ups!!” I’m not sure if this applies to the Heroes situation but it’s worth mentioning.

While the ratings have been on a steady decline  since early on in the 3rd season, the community has always been strong.  International and domestic DVD sales have been tremendous for every volume of the series.  Heroes was the number one downloaded show (albeit illegally) beating the likes of “Lost”, “Dexter” and “House”.   Simply going off of Nielsen ratings, the immediate reaction after last season was that Heroes wouldn’t live to see another day.  That started to change and we were hearing a lot of encouraging news in favor of Heroes coming back.  More and more steam picked up and it appeared we would at least get one more run of the show.  Unfortunately NBC is in a really bad spot right now and they are trying to rebuild their prime-time line up.  Angela Bromstad (NBC Prime time president) has said from the beginning that NBC had a tremendous amount of pilots to review and that the fate of Heroes could be decided by their interest in those pilots.  With J.J. Abram’s new series (”Undercovers”) being picked up and a slew of other new pilots being green lighted by NBC, it would appear that the chances for Heroes returning are looking more and more grim. I do want to point out that the Vulture.com article does imply that if Heroes doesn’t return for a 5th season there is the chance of a 2 or 4 hour movie.

With all this said, nothing has been officially decided or communicated by NBC.  At least nothing that’s been made public, so we still have some hope. We know they have their upfronts this Sunday where they sell advertising space for their Fall shows. At that time NBC will release their Fall lineup and we’ll probably know for sure if Heroes is coming back or not. Unless their Spring lineup is not included and we’re asked to a wait a bit longer….  While I’m sure most things have already been finalized for NBC, it can’t hurt to let them know how you feel as a fan of the show.  The quickest way to do this is to send tweets to @NBC and express your love for the show.  If you do send NBC a message, keep it professional and courteous.  The Heroes community has always been the best so let’s hope for a surprise this weekend and maybe Heroes will be back along with the 10th Wonder podcast!  We’ll keep you posted!
