Thanks to Luciana, my friend and webmiss over at Zach Quinto Network, we have 70 gorgeous high definition screencaptures of this week’s episode of Heroes. The season finale airs on Monday for those of us in the States. I will likely wait a few days before posting screencaptures to give others a chance to watch it before getting spoilers from the pics.
Heroes‘ life span will be a little shorter next season.
NBC plans to cut the number of episodes of its superhero drama from 25 this season to 18 to 20 in its fourth season, Ad Age reports.
The reasons for the cutback are legion: Though the show’s latest episodes have reinvigorated many fans, a series of complicated and wide-ranging storylines cost the show ratings in Season 2 and earlier this season.
Also, NBC will have five fewer primetime hours to fill in 2009-10 season, thanks to Jay Leno’s new hour-long program at 10 pm weeknights. And other networks are also experimenting with condensed seasons: ABC’s Lost has kept to 16 or 17 episodes in recent seasons, and CBS’s Harper’s Island has a 13-episode format that could be repeated (with a new setting and cast) if the murder mystery succeeds with viewers.
Though Heroes debuted to strong ratings in 2006, since the 2007-08 writers strike its viewership has slipped to about 7.7 million viewers on average, four million fewer than it earned before the work stoppage, according to Nielsen.
The show’s writers have already started planning for the show’s fifth volume, which will involve a series of mysterious deaths. Or could they be murders?
Not great news, but not bad news either. Adrian Pasdar is leaning towards it being a good thing:

“The pacing will be a little better — we were sometimes shooting three episodes at once, and there’s no way that something doesn’t slip through the cracks,” Pasdar said. ”It just gets crazy.”
Taken in 2007 but the photos are new to me and to the site. I don’t know about you all but some of the shots against the fence are giving me some seriously dirty thoughts…
