Heroes finale?

Who feels a little cheated that Heroes season 2 ends with only 11 episodes?

I understand why the writers are on strike and support that, but damn is it a bummer to see my favorite show cut short for it.

I'm also not expecting to get any Lost season 4.

I have no idea about this writers strike. Do you know what its over?

Digital media.

DaveMoral - 12-4-2007 at 08:02 PM

^Yeah, and getting compensated appropriately. They get almost nothing for digital media as it is.

I don't like shows with varying season lengths each year. Trailer Park Boys 6 was 6 episodes, season 5 and 7 were 10? And other seasons were 8, 10 or more, fucked up.

Shows should have consistent length seasons. Interested to see when Heroes:Origins finally hits the airwaves. It was supposed to be the filler after season 2 finale but the strike's fucked that up.

I think Origins is supposed to be on phones or something. Exclusive cell phone content is the worst thing ever.

I'll just have to content myself with reading the online comics I suppose. That and rewatching season 1 and 2.

last year, they took a break in between for like 2-3 months last year, so hopfully they'll do the same this year, i love that show.

A commercial I saw for Heroes on the weekend said that yesterday's episode was the "fall finale." I took that to mean it would be back later in the season, like ABC did with Lost last year.

Thats exactly what's happening... in interviews the creators have always said that season two will have two half-season story arcs.

I thought the finale was great, the cliffhanger was wild.

it's the writer's strike. they still have 13 episodes left if the strike is over in time to create volume 3 of the series, as the very end of season 1 finale and the 11 episodes of season two were only Volume 2 of the series. every show is getting fucked like this and i don't know if i support the writers or not. you know who is getting paid while they strike and air repeats? the writers. while people like my friend who worked on heroes is now jobless.

I really really really hate mid-season breaks, its so fucking retarded. Its what killed Jericho and made me less excited to watch Lost when it finally came back on.

Unfortunately shows only come from 1 place, so even from the other side of the world I still have to put up with the stupid shit.
