We’re so used to event TV these days, with the majorstreaming servicesconstantly providing us with Hollywood style series on a regular basis, but there was a time when big budget shows were fewer and further between.
It meant that the likes of NBC’sHeroesbecame massive overnight success stories, with many millions of global viewers hooked to each and every episode. Multi-award winning, it was essential viewing in the early 2000s, before the likes ofNetflixand Prime Video hit the big time.
Well, now it’s coming back once more, and this time it might end up on one of the big streaming services from the get-go.
The show’s creator, Tim Kring, is reportedly pitchingHeroes: Eclipsedto interested broadcasters and platforms. It’s a second return to the franchise after the 2015 limited series,Heroes Reborn, but this time planned to be an on-running show.
Deadlineclaims that it will be set many years after the original four season show, with a new cast of people who discover they’ve developed superpowers.

What is Heroes and how can I watch it?
The originalHeroesseasons 1 to 4 featured an amazing cast – even making big stars of a few of them. Zachary Quinto (Star Trek,American Horror Story) played the superpowered serial killer Sylar, while Hayden Panettiere (Scream,Nashville) was arguably the lead character considering she played cheerleader Claire Bennet – the first season’s tagline was “Save the Cheerleader, Save the World”.
Ali Larter (Final Destination) and Kristen Bell (Forgetting Sarah Marshall,Frozen) also featured, and let’s not forget Masi Oka, who is literally called Hiro in the show.
You can see them all for yourself as the entire four season run is available to watch forfree on ITVX in the UK. It is on Peacock in the US.
Unfortunately, no UK service currently hasHeroes Rebornavailable to stream as part of a subscription (or for free). However, you can purchase the limited series on the likes ofAmazon. That can then be watched on a Smart TV or through any other device capable of accessing Prime Video.
