Tonight on NBC is an all-new Chuck episode and the season 4 finale of Heroes. In this week’s Chuck, Chuck turns a bold move into a potentially hazardous one. See how that works out for him during “Chuck vs. The Mask.”
As for Heroes see what Tim Kring, Hayden Panettiere, and Robert Knepper have to say on the set of the Season 4 finale. Hayden promises not to give away any secrets, so you should be sure to tune in tonight.

It’s Monday so that means new episodes of Chuck and Heroes tonight. For Chuck, it’s another great episode where he further demonstrates his prowess as a new spy. Also, he and Sarah have to think quickly to protect one of their assets.
On Heroes, we’re getting closer to the final confrontation and things are really heating up. On tonight’s show you’ll see Samuel continue to execute his plan now that he’s captured Noah. Also, we’ve got a couple behind-the-scenes clips for you as well as you get to know more about your favorite Heroes actors. Good times.
Check out all the videos, as always, after the jump. Be sure to watch full episodes of both shows starting tonight at 8/7C on NBC.

Regardless if people are still watching and some people feel strongly that NBC’s Heroes has run its course, the network is still promoting the show and still airing it. With the season finale (and perhaps the end of the show entirely) weeks away, NBC has sent us some videos giving you a behind the scenes look and interviews with some of the cast.
In the videos, you can go on the set and get an inside look at the show. Plus, you can how the cast and crew work together in the filming of each episode and hear from stars Masi Oka and Greg Grunberg during some of their downtime on set.
Even if the show’s future may be incertain, it’s still nice to see that the cast is behind their show and willing to talk about it in order to keep fans interested. Normally, I would chalk this up to simple desire to see their job continue.
But in this case, they seem to actually be genuine and really love the show. Maybe we should give Heroes another chance?
Check out Heroes Monday nights at 9/8C on NBC.

It should come as no surprise that we love Chuck here at The Flickcast. We cover it quite extensively and bring you as much info about the show as we can. We are also still hanging in there for Heroes, even though the show sorta seems to be heading down the wrong path. Although, Greg Grunberg assures us that the show is not being canceled, so its got that going for it.
This week Chuck settled into its Monday slot and Heroes was all new as well. If you missed the episodes, we’ve got some video for you to help you keep up with what’s going on with your favorite reluctant spy and your used to be favorite people with special abilities.
If you saw the episodes already, well, just watch these recaps and previews for next week anyway. We would appreciate it and I’m sure NBC would as well — especially if it gets you excited to watch Chuck and Heroes next week. Check out all the video goodness after the jump. You can also watch full episodes at NBC’s website.

Listen up Heroes fans. Mind-reading cop Greg Grunberg is convinced Heroes will be back for another season. This is certainly great news for anyone still watching the show and concerned about the ratings. Keep in mind, this is his opinion, and does not necessarily reflect that of the network.
Grunberg made his renewal prediction while attending the People’s Choice awards, “We wrapped yesterday and the [final episode] is nowhere near a series finale…It is cliffhanger-y and exciting, but it is nowhere near an end to a series that people are so invested in. It does not tie everything up in a neat bow… I don’t have any doubt that the show will be back.”
It’s a bold statement to make. Just because the season finale is “…nowhere near a series finale…” does not guarantee the show will return next season. Let me present Exhibit A: Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. That wasn’t a series finale either, and we all know what happened to it (here’s a hint, Fox canceled it).
That said, I hope Heroes viewers do get their show back. Fortunately, Heroes has some other things going for it other than Grunberg’s gut instinct. The series has solid DVD sales and a strong international following. Further, Heroes was the top pirated TV series of 2009. Okay, that may not be the best endorsement given the legalities (or lack there of) involved. Regardless, it is a strong indicator that people are watching the show.
At the end of the day I think as long as NBC can continue to sell ads alongside Heroes it should last. With shows like Dollhouse and the aforementioned Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles getting axed there’s less genre programming to watch. In that, Heroes may find a resurgence in viewers as similar options in programming continue to dwindle.

In honor of the fast approaching Thanksgiving holiday, our pals at NBC have sent us some clips from tonight’s episode of Heroes with a Thanksgiving theme to them. Sure, we know this seems like blatant promotion for a show that people are saying is dead, and, well, it is. Still, many of us here at The Flickcast continue to watch Heroes (Chris, I’m talking to you) so this post is for them.
In these new clips, we’re treated to scenes of domestic and family bliss that only happen on a show about people with super powers and the other people who want to kill them once in a great while. Actually, it usually happens around the holidays. Go figure. Anyway, in the first clip, we on the set and hear the cast give some insights into what you can expect on tonight’s episode. They also talk about their own personal Thanksgiving dinners.
There’s also two sneak peeks at the episode. One in which the Bennet family tries to reunite for a friendly dinner, but ends up in a tense encounter when Noah’s girlfriend appears. Awkward. In the other clip, Nathan and Peter struggle to get answers out of their mother to explain the disappearance of Nathan’s body. Good luck with that.
Check out all three clips after the jump. Heroes airs tonight at 8/7C on NBC.

If you watched Monday’s episode of Heroes, which was a pretty good one, you know that it featured Mohinder Suresh’s (Sendhil Ramamurthy) long-awaited return to the show. But the question still remains: What is Samuel’s plan for him and why is Hiro so annoying now? Well, that first one is a real question anyway. Hiro isn’t that annoying.
While you ponder those question, we’ve got a bunch of clips for you that will potentially help you discover some of the answers about Suresh, Smauel, Hiro and the mysterious past and origins of all your favorite characters. These clips feature Mohinder’s father, Chandra Suresh, at Coyote Sands research camp. He was doing research at the camp, you may remember, during last season’s episode “1961″ and what he is doing there may hold the key to mysteries only hinted at until now.
Watch the videos after the jump and see if you can decipher Chandra’s work and discoveries. Heroes is on Tuesday nights at 8/7C on NBC.

Amidst all the excitement at Comic-Con in San Diego over Iron Man 2, Tron, Avatar, Chuck or various other properties, a little show you may have heard of, and that got its start at Comic-Con, still had a packed panel and wowed fans. I’m talking about, of course, NBC’s Heroes.
Even though, in the opinion of some, the show has been a bit rocky lately, that’s doesn’t seem to be dampening fans enthusiasm for the show’s fourth season. One of the way’s NBC tried to enhance that enthusiasm is by showing a brand new “sizzle reel” preview of that fourth season exclusively at Comic-Con a few days ago.
Well fear not if you weren’t there to see it in person because we’ve got it for you right here. This video is a brand new, extended preview trailer entitled “Road to Redemption.” In it, you’re treated to lots of cool glimpses of your favorite characters and what they’re doing next season. Plus, there may be a few surprises in store as well.
Check out all the Heroes Season 4 action right after the jump. Heroes begins its fourth season on Monday, September 24th.
