    Start the countdown :)
    Heroes will return in the US with a three-hour "event" in September.

    Unveiling its scheduling plans for 2008-09, NBC promised a "major relaunch" to boost the third season of the cult series. The show last aired in the US in December before the writers' strike took hold, meaning it will have been off screens for almost nine months by the time it comes back.

    NBC programming head Ben Silverman said the event would include a one hour clip/recap show followed by a two-hour season premiere.

    The season is expected to air in two halves, each consisting of continuous blocks of more than ten episodes. The first will begin in September, with the second following in February.

    Meanwhile, in the UK, BBC Two has scheduled the second season of Heroes to begin on April 24.

    Sadly I'm not as excited about Heroes as I used to be. Season 2 really betrayed my faith. Look I even got rid of my Hiro signature.

    Actually I went through a whole boards identity change... hello again! :D

    Agreed. Season 2 was a massive disappointment. I thought it was poor with one or two Season 1-style great eps.

    Yeah... Series 2 even made me notice things I didn't like about series 1 even more! Like Mohinder, he was never that annoying until I got to know him better! Here's hoping it was all down to the strike, and series 3 will be a lovely renaissance!

    The only good thing that came out of the strike was that the whoring to the product placement had to be removed to close the story fast. So you actually got a storyline that didn't involve having to write in a car, mobile phone or an ipod.
