Big shakeup on the staff of NBC's "Heroes" came down on Sunday with the axing of co-exec producers Jesse Alexander and Jeph Loeb.
Both scribe-producers had been with the show since its first season and were known to have led the day-to-day production operation under the direction of creator/exec producer Tim Kring.

"Heroes," produced by Universal Media Studios, has struggled in the ratings its third season. It's understood that Alexander and Loeb were let go because of Peacock execs' frustration with the creative direction of the show. The show is also said to have been grappling with hefty budget overruns this season, that are going well beyond its already sizable $4 million per-seg pricetag.

Looks like Heroes is going down for the count. Low ratings, fan complaints, now firing some folks in charge.

Yeah, I don't see this show lasting much longer. Maybe another season, but with high budgets and sagging ratings, there's not much left to do with it. It's too bad NBC had to kill this show.

I've tried to get into the show this season, but it seems a bit lackluster to me..

I haven't watched since the first season - I heard the second season was disastrous creatively, and I haven't watched yet this season. But, I haven't seen a show shed its audience so quickly like Heroes has in awhile.
