WTH?? Didn't it just start in August like everyone else or does this have to do with the strike??

I dont know. It has been short. Maybe they are one of the shows that has a season once every 6 months :fingerscrossed Im just waiting to be impacted by the strike.

Yeah, I was wondering if they were doing some repeat weeks here and there as a reaction to kind of stretch out what they already have filmed and ready to go, you know?

Maybe not then.... This is what it says about the next episode:

POWERLESS - Monday, 12/3, 9/8c

IT'S HERO VS. HERO AS THE SERIES' "VOLUME II: GENERATIONS" COMES TO AN EXPLOSIVE, BLOODY FINISH

So maybe just the "volume II series" comes to an end?

Have you seen the commercials from sprint or something like that?
We are supposed to choose the next hero.
I'm thinking it's because of the strike.

Yeah, it would have to be a really abrupt finish if that were it but maybe this is kind of their comic book style or something? Either way, I have really liked it this season although the Hiro in Japan storyline was too drawn out IMO...

Wow, I totally missed that. I had no idea it was the finale next week. I read an article in Entertainment Weekly about the creator of Heroes apologizing for the long drawn out beginning episodes. He said they thought that's what we wanted, but they are sorry. That is why they picked up the pace.

we read in an article at the end of last season that given the nature of the show they felt they had to put a definite time limit on how long the show would run. It's not like on friends where they can go for 10 years and wrap it all up in 2 episodes. They have to plan for a full season or more on how to wrap up all of the dozens of plot lines they have going on. So they said that 3 seasons total (this being the end of the 2nd) gave them enough time to really evolve all the plots and still have time to wrap everything up without skimping on any particular storyline.

Yeah, I can see that. I hate it when shows go on forever anyway.

i tried to find the article we'd read last year, but came across this first

http://community.tvguide.com/blog-entry/TVGuide-Editors-Blog/Ausiello-Report/Strike-Fallout-Heroes/800026358

So it looks like it IS due to the strike.

lmao

He wasn't alone. Ratings for Monday's episode were down from the previous week, and the conclusion of Volume Two was the lowest-rated finale episode for the show yet, according to Nielsen Media Research.
the lowest-rated finale for the show? Uhm.. it's only the 2nd finale.
