[Cancelled] Heroes Season 4 (Volume 5 : Redemption)


Recommended Posts

8pm (central) still Rappy? I swear I've asked it a million times but this time I'm actually going to write it down! Putting the fall schedule into my phone currently so I don't forget.

On another note, NBC really has me booked so far. Chuck (eventually), Law and Order:SVU, Heroes, and I'm going to start watching that new Community show with Joel McHale.

I am not sure on the time but I would imagine they won't change it.

Heroes and Sprint have partnered for several webseries since the NBC series began, but the connection between the main series and webseries will grow closer this year.

Heroes' new season begins with the next volume, "Redemption", and the introduction of a carnival that is the home to several major new super-powered characters. Meanwhile, the next ten-part webseries, launching September 28th, will focus on that carnival, with three characters from the series also playing a part in the webseries.

In addition, a new character introduced in the webseries will then appear on Heroes this season ? the daughter to carnival member Lydia (played by Dawn Olivieri). Like her mother, Lydia will have a power of her own.

Below is the full press release for the new webseries:

Well, now that Heroes is finally going to arrive, in just like 4 days, I think I'll rejoin this thread. I have kept away from a lot of the spoilers, but recently did a quick catch up. Season seemed to be crappy at first, but the more i've seen, the more I'm looking forward to it. Lets hope this is a good refreshing beginning.

Any news as to whether this will be the last season or is there a chance we get another if this season somehow rockets up?

    • take your console only release and shove it. i sold my ps5 as my pc wipes the floor with it, at the point of sale i didn't envisage being ignored by one of the biggest and wealthiest developers ever because they simply can't be bothered to support a loyal user base. as i only played the single player versions, i'll be obtaining this "free" when it eventually reaches PC as an afterthought to pay for their christmas party drinks in 2029. screw me, screw you cockstar
    • Apart from Early Hiccups on Windows 11 on first install on October 6th 2021 on my old Intel 10700 daily use Desktop PC at the time, used to have issue with Bluetooth suddenly no longer working and only fix back then was always another clean install--then would work for a while. Transition to 2024 when i decided to finally upgrade that system for better support for Battlefield 2042 and Battlefield 6 later on, opted for next daily use Gaming Desktop AMD Ryzen 7 7700X and Radeon 7800XT OC 16GB. No major problems at all with this desktop, OS was clean installed way back on 10/8/2025 not long after 25H2 released. Overall i've been happy with Windows 11 Pro from the start, even minor little quirks didn't sway me. Heck i even use Windows 8 and upgraded immediately upon release back then on my old HP P6-2133W Desktop, and while the specs of that machine didn't give me top notch performance--i still was able to do what i wanted to, without too many slowdowns. Windows ME i didn't use on any of my personal systems back in the day, kept those systems on 98SE til XP released, and grabbed that immediately on release date. Kept XP til Vista Released then upgraded immediately, kept Vista til Windows 7 released, then updated immediately again
    • Broadcom: dreadful company who is destroying VMware by pricing it out of the market.
    • To be fair, it wasn't going anywhere. Even when Windows Phone could run Android APKs, Google didn't want any of it so it'd never work and the same thing happened with Windows. It was never about the store or it's users, it was always the developers and who they aligned to.
