To be honest, I haven't watched 'Heroes' all that much this season, so I can't say whether or not it merits coming back more than 'Chuck,' which I have seen. Let's hope that NBC brings it back next season, even if it's for half a season.

Anyway, NBC announced their fall schedule. 'Heroes' return as well as 'Southland,' which I also like.

One story on www.zap2it.com says we'll have to wait until May 19 to learn it's fate. So far NBC has newed everything but "Chuck" and "My name is Earl", which may move to FOX.

Chuck deserves a full season order. Heroes deserves nothing.

http://www.deadlinehollywooddaily.com reports that NBC has told agents the "CHUCK", "Medium" & "L&O" will be renewed.

I've been a big supporter of Heroes from the beginning. The first season, though it had some flaws was excellent. But the finale was weak. Then the strike-shortened Season 2. Started weak and got suckier as time went on. Season 3 started a bit better, started to suck, got better again and then the finale . . . weak, weak, weak. At this point I don't care much what happens. The 4th Season will need to have major storyline improvements for me to care much anymore. The only reason I'll still watch is to see what happens to Hiro, but I won't expect much from it other than that. Hiro has remained one of the great characters. He's willing to sacrifice everything, even his own health to embody what it means to be a true hero.

Select to view spoiler:


The final episodes of this season saw Hiro starting to suffer severe headaches and bleeding from his ears and nose whenever he used his power. And it's because he's the only one who really cares about being a hero that I'll keep watching. The actor made me genuinely concerned for Hiro's health



What REALLY sucks is that Brian Fuller's other magnificent series, "Pushing Daisies" was canceled. His return to "Heroes" was supposed to give it the boost it so desperately needed. But it didn't.

Mal: You think she'll hold together?
Zoë: She's torn up plenty, but she'll fly true.
Mal: Could be bumpy.
Zoë: Always is

worst part about all of this is that they cancelled 'Life' which was easily, IMO, the best show since our lil' lady took flight...

I hate NBC.

I watch both, but enjoy Chuck far more of the two. I'd rather have Chuck back and Heroes cancelled honestly.

Oh "Chuck" is so great - its funny, and it has a real emotional core. Does everything have to be so depressing these days?

I'm a "Chuck" fan. Never watched Heroes, so I can not comment on that show. I just know that I enjoyed every episode of "Chuck" and would like to see him back at Buy More.
