You may or may not have heard, but there are rumblings aplenty about the fate of NBC’s superhero show Heroes. The whole crisis seems to stem from a very innocent twitter by one of the show’s stars, Greg Grunberg, but it sure set off a firestorm. Everyone and their momma who never liked the show in the first place have begun pontificating the show’s end. Well guess what, guys, screw you. The show is coming back for a fourth season. Probably.

Everyone can now relax, because during a luncheon with the press, NBC President Angela Bromstad reaffirms her commitment to Heroes, and says that the network plans to bring the show back for a fourth season regardless of the ratings for Season 3.
Bromstad cites the show’s strong international fanbase, as well as wanting another show to introduce fans to Jesse Alexander’s post-apocalyptic Day One when it debuts later this year. Also, the show does well in the important adults 18-49 demo.
Bromstad also says that the network may give the show a planned end date ala Lost, though that wouldn’t be next year’s season.
