Heroes Season Finale Next Month? Writers strike could turn December 3rd episode into the finale. by Eric Goldman November 2, 2007 - As we related in our article about the writers strike beginning this Monday, Heroes is in a slightly better position than many other series when it comes to what could be a severely truncated TV season. Unlike the first season of the show, which told a story arc going across every episode, Season 2 had been structured to tell two or three smaller arcs. The current story (or "volume") is called "Generations" and was already set to wrap up on the December 3rd episode of the show, with the next volume intended to begin airing shortly after. This gave the show a better place than most to prematurely end the season, as it least was intended as the culmination of several current plotlines. While more episodes have been shot beyond that, they would likely simply be held for whenever the show goes back into production, so that the next storyline doesn't have to be interrupted in the middle. TV Guide's Michael Ausiello now reports that in addition, the producers of Heroes are going back and filming a new ending for that already completed December 3rd episode, which would better serve to turn the episode into a true season finale. If the strike is somehow averted, they wouldn't use this more specific ending and go back to the original footage they shot to lead into the next story arc. The writers strike is set to begin Monday November 4th at 12:01 am PT, meaning the Heroes writing staff have until then to finalize the new ending. \well hopefully it doesn't end prematurely in a bad way.
Nah, don't think it will affect the plotlines? At worst we won't see new Heroes episodes for some time?
