I think the show was due for cancelation but the outcry was big enough they decided to add volume two after the show's finally was already in play and they decided to kill a few of the heros. It will be interesting to see what they come up with for next year.

I can't believe it was due for cancellation. Uggggh, best new show in a while and the world is still enamoured with American Idol! I, for one, am happy to move past the tired, played out and intentionally belittling world of "reality" television and get on with some good, old-fashioned fiction

Yeah, it's hard to care about any of the reality tv "stars", especially on shows like Bachelor. My wife loves it but I guess I'm a little too old fashion in my ideas about love & marriage. It seems kinda demeaning for these women to all fight over the one guy & know, absolutely know, that when he's not with her, he's making out with some other woman.

Heroes is a much smarter, more interesting & intellectually stimulating show compared to that crap.

Seconded. For me most of reality TV was a novelty the first time around, and after that it just annoyed me. I only ever watched the first season of Survivor, and never watched American Idol beyond the obnoxious commericals that ALWAYS seem to be on. I find it all too dry, and without any actual purpose other then pulling in money. Oh well, to each their own I guess.

I ABSOLUTELY HATE Reality TV shows.

I think the few TV shows I watch are Heroes, House, NCIS and Criminal Minds (Of course Flames Games!) and that is about it.

I don't know what the real story is but I do know they often cancel shows that don't get a fair chance; example (Smith), I thought that show was really good but they cancelled it after 4 episodes but then they leave on so much other crap that shouldn't be aired in the first place. Anyway I am looking forward to Heros next season.

The show was never marked for cancellation. It was granted a full first season and an additional second season several months ago. I think that because it was in its first season and in the beginning no one knew how well it would do they didn't have that big of a budget, maybe that’s why we didn't see an awesome fight at the end. Now that the writers have some time before season 2 I bet it will be even better, I'm sure the budget is a bit bigger too.
