In this post-strike world there are rumors that are rampant…when are your favorite shows coming back…
Heroes: NBC’s sci-fi drama from the producer Tim Kring was originally planning to open a new arc titled “Villains” in early 2008. Since the studio would probably not be able to film more than 3 new episodes this season, NBC is expected to delay the return of the drama till September, when season 3 launches. Next season may however contain more than the standard 22-23 episodes.
Gossip Girl: The CW’s teen drama is expected to return in late April with the remaining 9 episodes. Under that scenario, the struggling network would extend its official TV season into the summer. “Gossip Girl” was the first freshman drama to receive a full-season pickup last October, and would possibly be the only hour-long drama to film a full season of 22 episodes.
Ugly Betty: ABC’s sophomore comedy would come back this spring for 4 additional episodes, bringing the season total to 17. Executive producer Silvio Horta has said to Entertainment Weekly the writers would however have to tweak the planned storylines as they were originally mapped out for a 23-episode season. 13 episodes have aired thus far.
