Heroes set to return with a bang!
Bang, boom, whatever, all I can say, is Heroes better return with something bigger and better than last season’s snoozefest.
And it’s looking like that COULD happen. Finally scrapping the ridiculous idea of Heroes: Origins (spinoff hell), the creators and writers are gearing up for a huge third season.
The fact that there is no Heroes returning this spring was a conscious decision made to give the creators time to rejuvenate and bring back some freshness to the series. From Sci Fi Wire:
“We consciously chose to rest [Heroes] this spring so that [creator] Tim Kring and his team could get ahead of the creative and build up to a massive event–a three-hour Heroes night,” Ben Silverman, co-chairman of NBC Entertainment and Universal Media Studios, said during the network’s upfront presentation to advertisers in New York on April 2. “On Monday, Sept. 15, we’ll kick off with a Heroes clip show to try to bring back the audience and [then air] a massive two-hour Heroes film.”
Origins was discarded because it was “taxing” on their creative team, which is something I figured would happen. Trying to get your writers to pen an entire season of television, then to also write a spin-off at the same time seems a bit much to me personally.
My only hope now is that Kring takes a big look at the series and tries to get rid of the gooey little side stories, and start cranking up the superhero stuff. I want to see two sides start warring against each other: Sylar and his cronies against Peter and his fellow heroes.
