Heroes: Eclipsed

[thechase]

Tim Kring‘s Heroes is eyeing a second encore with Heroes: Eclipsed, a new incarnation of the popular 2006 superhero drama series, sources tell Deadline. Appropriately, the project is being pitched to buyers now, the week of the solar eclipse. (The original series started off with a solar eclipse in the pilot, which became a recurring element throughout the series, also reflected in its logo.)



Written by Kring, Heroes: Eclipsed is set years after the events of the original series as new evos are being awakened and discovering powers that will change their lives. Featuring familiar villains and new enemies who once again will be attempting to suppress this next step in human evolution, it will be up to this new group of heroes to save the world.

Heroes is right up there with Highlander and Matrix in the "This  should have been done just the one time" category with me. Can't say I'm ecstatic. The last 'reboot' was quickly forgotten.

I maintain that the first season of Heroes is one of the greatest seasons of television ever. The rest of the original series was more miss than hit, but I did enjoy it overall. Whatever the hell Reborn was is enough proof that there is no more juice here.

They should have let season 1 stand and done subsequent storirs with a different cast of characters. I understand the urge to go with more Sylar, but less is more in the case of a world ending threat.

I still maintain the original series, even the seasons after the first, were fine. Reborn sucked ass and gave me zero desire to see anything to follow up on it unless it's to retcon Reborn out of existence

Doing a more anthology style show probably would've been a better idea. Pick a character, likely Hiro, to be the connective tissue between seasons but have each season focus on a different area with different emerging people with powers.

From what I remember that was apparently the original idea that the creators had. They had actually wanted it to be more anthology.

Should have never nerfed Peter's abilities.
