NBC Fires Two “Heroes” Executive Producers

Variety is reporting that NBC fired Jesse Alexander and Jeph Loeb, two of the most notable members of the Heroes staff, on Sunday.

The two have been heavily involved with the show since its first season taking on daily showrunning tasks for series creator Tim Kring.

It is believed that the reason for the firings is due to a lack of satisfaction with the two by NBC regarding the creative direction of the show and the recent tendency to go over-budget despite slipping ratings.

First the drop in ratings, and now this?  Is this showing the end of the line for Heroes or a new beginning?

One thing is for sure:

This does not look bright to fans or advertisers.
