I ment to see end end of season 1 and perhaps a bit of season 2 to see if it picked up again. But i never got around to do it. I am not much into shows that never has closures on anything but leaves everything hanging like a cheap soap. I got tired of the show at end of season 1.

Left the show then & there." QFT. They seemed to run out of ideas halfway through season ONE, and it's been a boring mess ever since. Hell, all TV shows repeat this formula. Make a fre fine films and let us celebrate them, stop dragging these great concepts into the ground, buncha greedy yarbles. “Heroes SUCKED from the Season-1 Finale. Left the show then & there.”

A good sign is that the UK release is only 1 month after the US, it's a very small tentative step in the right direction for TV. I don't see why the TV companies can't simply strike ad deals globally, and serve geographic dependent ads prior to the show. Streaming's not the complete answer, but it's another step in the right direction. I don’t mind waiting ’til October, I lost a fair bit of interest after re-watching S01&02 on the Beeb.

Product placement appears to be part of their solution. Heroes is a good example of this with Nissan. Movies have also been doing this as well. Too bad for the music industry though. You can't just interrupt a song and drop a commercial in the middle or sing about a product without it being just an annoying commercial. There are other avenues they could go but they don't want to let go of the tried and true methods of ripping off/enslaving musicians. They'll reap what they've sown.
