Hey Heroes Fans,
As reported yesterday here and every where else, Writer/Producers Jesse Alexander and Jeph Loeb left the show for "creative differences". What some are reporting is that it means they were fired.
Here are the official statements by both writers and there is not much, but what I expected that both would say thanks and wish the cast and the rest of the writers the best.
From Loeb:
“As of today, Jesse Alexander and I have left Heroes. I’m incredibly proud to have been a big part of the success a show with eight Emmy nods and a win this year for NBC.com. I will miss the superb cast and writing staff and wish everyone the best.”

From Alexander:
"I write this with a heavy heart. As of today I am no longer a writer/producer on HEROES. I could not be prouder of all the work I did on the show and wish all my Heroic Scribbler pals the very best. I will certainly continue to blog at GLOBAL COUCH."

Once again I am not sure if this is the move the show needed right now because Alexander and Loeb were the creative minds connected to the comic book world. I personally felt the show was making a positive move in the story. Unfortunately it always comes down to ratings and money and perhaps now fans realize that these two things can not be ignored.
So what do you all think a day later...!? Still feel the same?? Better or worse??

While both men were the show's connection to the comic book world, I think this is a good move on NBC's part (for a change). When you look at the episodes they wrote, the quality of the writing was inconsistent, and it's something that could be discerned in the performances of the actors. Even the best thespians can only do so much with mediocre scripts, something I felt Loeb and Alexander did little to overcome, especially in the second season. I also think it's time for Heroes to stop borrowing so much from the comic book world and create storylines more suited to the characters. I also think they need to bring in more characters without powers, as the show has lost its sense of balance. The heavy focus on those with abilities has cost the show dearly, particularly in the area of character development. Perhaps cutting the strings on the comics duo will help the rest of the creative team find their way again.
