"HEROES " PICKED-UP

The Peacock network is struggling. Most of their new dramas have premiered underwhelmingly and the production on one of the new series (Kidnapped) has already ceased. But, there is good news on Monday nights.

For the second week in a row, the new cult drama "Heroes" has won the time-period (9/8c) in the very important 18-49 demo. NBC is satisfied with the creative direction of the series and it is confident that the upcoming episodes will be equally successful.

Therefore a back order of 9 episodes was announced today on top of the original 13.
