I've been a big Heroes fan since the very beginning and have enjoyed all of it. Series three was rather long at twenty-five episodes but this was caused by the writers' strike in the States. Nevertheless it was great fun and full of adventure and cool characters and their abilities.
Series 4 was high on my list to see. Naturally, and somewhat naively it turns out, I was expecting it to reappear at the usual 9pm slot on Wednesday evening. Of course the fanfare of publicity would have alerted me to this.
But no. Nothing. The BBC in their wisdom quietly shelved it on a Saturday evening at 10pm. What's worse I didn't see a single bit of publicity about it. I had plenty of chances to.
Oh yes.. I could catch up on iPlayer. Oh, no. I'd missed the first three or four episodes so they had expired already.
Grrr.
Not good. It's a brilliant series and whoever took the decision to move needs to be sat on until they make better decisions in future. I'm really annoyed and I'd like to think I'm not alone.
I agree with you. It is pretty annoying. I'm in Ireland and the main Irish channel has stopped showing it..wonder why? So my only source is BBC and online. I have finished watching it however, all 19 episodes. And its pretty good. Looking forward to next series!
