Does this mean we can have Heroes back?

According to USA Today, in their online article "Writers' strike breakthrough reported":

A breakthrough in contract talks has been reached between Hollywood studios and striking writers and could lead to a tentative deal as early as next week, a person close to the ongoing negotiations said Saturday.

Does this mean we can finally have Heroes back? I mean, I really miss watching it and I'm dying to know whats going to happen!

The studios have been insisting that programs be streamed online for a certain period, deemed promotional, during which writers would forego residuals. When payment kicked in, the companies sought to limit it to a flat $1,200 fee, while the guild wanted a percentage of a distributor's revenue.

Give them their money already! Without them your shows will stop! But of course they should have limits too, $1,200 is a lot already :) So everybody is happy!

A little more after the jump!


The guild extended its own olive branch before the informal talks started by withdrawing the reality-animation unionization proposal and by deciding to keep pickets away from the Grammy Awards. It has since decided to allow the music ceremony to proceed with full union support.

They already ruined that other one,.... what was the name. Better not ruin the rest people will hate 'em for that! :P I mean if not those people in America people outside, we actually like watching those filthy rich American celebrities hang out together and receive awards and stuff!

However, the fate of the Feb. 24 Academy Awards has remained in question, with the guild so far declining to grant its blessing to the show. A union refusal to cooperate with the Golden Globes decimated the ceremony, which was boycotted by supportive actors.

Okay.... so can we have Heroes back on TV now?!
