NBC cancels 'Heroes'

[Dangerous Incorporated]

It's official. NBC has cancelled "Heroes."

The network seriously mulled bringing back "Heroes" for a shortened final season to wrap up the serialized show, possibly as a two- or four-hour movie.


In the end, given the fairly high cost of the drama, the show's consistently declining ratings and the number of new hour-longs coming to NBC next season, the network decided the UMS-produced series wasn't worth an additional episode order.
Among the network's new shows, there's several entries aimed at genre fans -- superhero drama "The Cape," "24"-style conspiracy thriller "The Event" and J.J. Abrams' light-hearted spy drama "Undercovers." Also, of course, "Chuck" is coming back. More to come..

Awww bummer. It was getting a little ridiculous though. I was hoping they could bring it back. But once Claire went public with her powers, I was like, so this is it? I saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
