Heroes: Seasons One and Two Soaring to Blu-ray

Universal Studios Home Entertainment has announced they will release 'Heroes: Season One' and 'Heroes: Season Two' for Blu-ray on August 26th. The first season was released on DVD and HD DVD last August, and the second season will be released on Blu-ray day-and-date with the DVD release. No specs or extras have been announced at this time. The 'Heroes: Season Two' release will be the first global release on Blu-ray for Universal, indicating that it will be available in all territories on August 26th. This also places the previous seasons in the hands of fans a few days before the proposed start of the third season of the popular television series. No word on whether 'Heroes: Season One' will be a port of the previous HD DVD release, or if it will be optimized for Blu-ray. We'll post more details on all the upcoming Universal titles when they come available.

Not sure it would be a purchase for me. I really like the show but don't think I'd watch it multiple times. Even so I hope they fully optimize it for Blu.

I hope season 2 costs half as much as season 1 seeing as how the writers strike crippled season 2 to its death. Is this show even coming back?

With these announcements from Universal today, I can't imagine Paramount will wait much longer to at least hint of their plans. I like the way Universal is doing this, at least they're giving us something...

I know I'm definitely in the minority when I saw I'm not a huge 'Heroes' fan. I did enjoy season 1 and will definitely rent Season 2 on Blu. Not sure whether or not I'll ever buy them though - maybe one day when they are on sale. This is still great news for Blu though. Happy to have Universal making announcements

I think Universal is really ticked off about HD DVD and taking it out on Blu-ray. Great news for us. Talk about jumping in with both feet. They jumped in with both feet and the kitchen sink. Way to go Universal..... Ummmmm.....Paramount????
