what bullshit… why would u go on a strike and stop the airing of such a great show…. Those damn American Writers Association (or w/e they’re called) have to come to an agreement… First cancellation of HEROES: Origins now this… BULLSHIT!!

wait. wtf is this bullshit?! what is this accosications and what do they do and how the fuck do they have to rite to pull a fantastic show off air and yank our hearts with it?! WTF is thsi american writer’s shit and more importantly where is it?! i wanna goa nd kick some pathetic ass.

Gah! This is terrible! Gawd, and the writers are likely to be my sort of people so I’m more in their mindset and hoping that an agreement is reached that they’ll accept because this is just bad for the network and for the writers if it goes on too long. A fair agreement should be reached and I hope that Heroes will not be sacrificed along the way!

On one hand… this is bullshit. I hate this frakkin’ writers’ strike, even thought I’m of the opinion that their demands are perfectly reasonable.

But on the other hand, at least there would be some sort of conclusion to both Volume and Season 2. There are a lot of other shows that may not be so lucky. And at least from the sounds of things, when the strike is resolved Heroes will be returning. I imagine that networks may use the strike as an excuse to scrap low-rating series, or just series they flat-out don’t like.

the writers strike is affecting every network… its not a NBC thing… shows on FOX, ABC, CBS, and the CW will be affected too. The hardest hit maybe late night shows such as The Tonight Show and The daily Show as they will be forced to go into repeats imidiately if an agreement is not met

Boohoo, I love heroes. I don’t want the season to end. Can’t they just make a volume 3 within season 2!? 11 episodes in one season would ruin the consistency in volumes. Shit.

O.O this is terrible! im going to be on the balls of my feet all week until i hear the conclusion. WHY is the american thing doing this? what is the reason? what motives do they have? hey, lets go on a strike agianst the strike!

What’s this writer’s strike about anyways???

Wait…. are they cancelling Heroes all together!?

Not gonna lie, but this season of heroes is pretty bad. the first season was good, but this one is LACKING. the cgi is horrible, the acting has gone down hill, and there are WAY WAY too many characters this season. imho its a good thing they are stopping the show.

This season of Heroes has sucked. Good riddance.

Here’s a brief look at the strike: http://www.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/TV/11/02/hollywood.talks/index.html

The heart of the issue is the writer’s claims to royalties on DVD sales and “new media” - the DVD issue was last addressed in 1988 so I’d guess they’re not seeing a lot of cash from the huge DVD sales.

English motherfucker, do you speak it?

wait.. am i a moron?

Wait — “Heroes” has writing staff? Really?
Then why didn’t those writers have a plotline for the first 6 episodes? Do they know where “Heroes” is going this season?
Thought not.

Basically, the writers aren’t paid any royalties for DVD/VHS sales or Internet downloads of their work. They told the studios that they wanted a percentage of revenue generated (Which is perfectly reasonable), and the studio shut them down.

None of them wanted the strike, but they felt it was needed to be properly compensated for the work.

For all of you throwing hissy fits over the strike: Don’t. These people are working hard for your entertainment and being under-compensated for it. Try to think outside the limited view of your Monday Night lineup and realize that this is the income of their household that you’re complaining about.

The writers want more money they are getting paid @ $0.04 on each DVD they want more and to get paid for internet downloads. If you want the TV Shows to stay on the air write to the studios and tell them to stop being cheap !

In regards to CGI, I totally agree with you charliesheen… The Blue/Green screen is totally obvious this season and lacking in quality. and the shows sorta lost a bit of it’s edge. I thnk it may have something to do with J. J. Phillbin writing and producing. But other than that, I’m still a big fan and love it!!!

This writers guild stirke is going to really hurt us all.. how? Not only because the shows we love may be postponed, but also because all we’ll be left with are tasteless & shameless reality shows!!!!! NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Fight the Power Writers!

Just letting everyone know that Tim Kring, or whoever the creator of Heroes is, had an interview on G4 a month or two ago. He stated that they learned from season 1 not to build up one storyline for an entire season, people expected too much for the season finale.

So, what they are doing this season is splitting it up into 2 “volumes” so that everyone can enjoy the “volume finales” more than waiting a crapload of time for one supposedly huge season finale, which last season’s finale, IMHO, sucked.

I don’t know how the writer’s strike is going to affect this, but as for the whole “volumes” thing, it is a two volume season, as per Tim Kring.
