NBC sucks

[monkeybard]

No Heroes tonight.  No Heroes until April 23. Fuckers. I guess they don't want me to watch their network at all for the next month plus.  Oh, and to add insult to injury, the handy-dandy "Contact Us" form on the NBC website isn't working.  Coincidence?  I think NOT.

i've heard it takes between 10 and 12 days to film 1 episode of Heroes...which would account for the slew of new episodes, then the 2 month breaks in between...doesn't make it easier to wait, though...

Remember when TV seasons just ran straight through with maybe a two-week break for winter holidays? ::sigh:: I miss those days.

They're online on nbc.com if you want to catch up. We had to watch an up online when I set the VCR wrong one week. D'oh!

Uh, "ep", not "up".

Are you serious!? That's ridiculous! Stupid NBC. Come visit me and you can watch it here.

I was just thinking about that too. It really bugs me how a show will take weeks to months off during the season. I understand taking time off around the holidays, but what's the deal the rest of the year.
Though devinam is probably on to something - it does seem like filming for some episodes is happening alot closer to when they air than I think they did in the past - trying to keep scripts as secret as possible.

I hear ya...any news on whether Studio 60 is canceled for good, or just on temporary hiatus?

I haven't been able to find anything current. Everything is from last month which indicates hiatus. Amanda Peet did just have a baby so I don't know if that has any impact on it or not. Though I guess rumors are going again that indicate it might be cancelled. Apparently, there is a petition that can be signed to save the show at http://savestudio60.com/
