Almost at the halfway mark for the series, Heroes Reborn debuted its 6th episode on NBC this Thursday. However, it is tomorrow’s episode that has everyone talking. Spoilers for episode 7 have been released that mark an important event in the series. It’s been suggested that information regarding the attacks in Odessa where the series began will be revealed. It is also expected that some original heroes such as Sandhill Ramamurtny and Christina Rose, will return in addition to Hiro Kanazawa’s role last week. The episode will be available via lifestream on NBC’s website, presumably to in order to up viewership. Last week, Heroes Reborn maintained a 1.1 rating in the 18-49 group. However, its total viewership was down to 3.8 million from last week’s 4.01 million.
It is also important to note that in week 3 the show gained a significant increase in rating due to DVR services. Tybythenumbers.com reported a 92% increase from a 1.2 live+SD to a 2.3 in live+7. NBC can only hope for this to happen each week.
