The closest we can get to an answer is via The Hollywood Reporter (THR) and through sound-bites from the show's cast.
THR spoke to industry insiders and worked out that Heroes had a 60% chance of being renewed by CBS. Interestingly, according to THR, if the show is renewed, it may only be for a limited amount of episodes in order to tie up loose ends.
“The expensive NBC series has always performed well overseas, but the network needs “Heroes” to pull decent numbers in its own backyard too. This season, “Heroes” continued its decline and is now at a level — around a 2.0 adults 18-49 rating — that would warrant cancellation under most circumstances. The deciding factor here is NBC’s internal balance sheet for the production. Don’t be surprised if NBC announces a 12-hour “final chapter” for next fall.” THR
Here at Geeky Girl HQ, we haven’t been exactly blown away by the last few seasons of Heroes but we would like to see fitting endings for the well written and conceived characters and story arcs. Ali Larter, who plays Tracey Strauss on the series, echoes our sentiments.
Promoting her latest film, Resident Evil: Afterlife, at WonderCon Ali commented, “I believe we are coming back for Heroes next season. I think so. I’m not sure. It’s been such a thrill being on that show. I hope we have the chance to wrap up these storylines for all the fans”.
