The ratings for Heroes this season haven't been too great.  I have to admit that I'm not as excited about it as I used to be.  There had been a lot of speculation as to whether or not this would be the final season for the show.

NBC has announced that despite the ratings, the show will indeed return.  NBC is happy with the name recognition the show has around the world. They had considered announcing an end date as was done with such shows as "Lost," "The Shield" and "BSG."  They figure that if they do this, next season wouldn't necessarily be their final one. 

While this is good news, the show is not in the clear just yet.  Should the ratings drastically drop, this could change.  Hopefully the show will turn things around and maintain a steady viewership and possibly gain more in order to keep the show alive.  You can read more about it here.

I personally don't care for Heroes anymore.

It's so obvious they're trying to get typical super beings like " superspeed" , "healing" , "absorbing" and more that are all ripped off of Marvel and DC. Its not like each character has a really interesting struggle with their powers.

So I wouldn't lose any sleep if this hyper dramatic show gets the boot.

This is still considered the third season even though they're calling it "Volume 4."

I liked season 1 have not finished 2 and have seen nothing of 3 so I am not really into it anymore and It seems like there still is no payoff in the show at all just tease tease tease

Season 1 = 10/10

Season 2: First Half = 8/10

Season 2: Second Half = 5/10

Season 3: First Half = 6/10

Season 3: Second Half So Far = 3/10

...the show disappoints me incredibly, but I still watch it in the hopes for a Season 1 repeat...maybe they'll pick up the slack with Season 4?
