But while those interviews were great, my personal highlight was getting to ask Tim Kring â the creator of NBCâs monster hit âHeroesâ - a few questions after they won the Saturn for Best Network Television Series.
Iâm posting two videos in this article. The first is the interview with Tim and the key members of the âHeroesâ staff. The second is a short clip of the entire group getting some pictures taken with the Saturn and you can even see Jenna Fischer and Rainn Wilson getting in on the action.
- The end of finale will âslingshot us into next seasonâ
- Season Two will tackle the multiple generations aspect of the show
- Says the finale will be âmore intriguing than frustratingâ
- The upcoming DVD of season one will be loaded with extras, tons of commentaries, and itâll have the original, uncut 72 minute pilot which had some stuff that has never made it into the show
- The upcoming DVD will be released on HD as well. I asked if both HD-DVD and Blue-Ray versions will be available and they werenât sure.
- A great moment was when I asked about last years Variety article and how they wrote âHeroesâ would be the show that fans would be lamenting over cancellation at next years comic-con. Tim was happy to be reminded of that article.
- They have BIG PLANS for comic con this summer. They want to thank all the fans. (Since they start filming in June⦠could we expect new footage of season two to be premiered at comic con? My guess is yes)
- And Robert from ISEB asked the question that has dominated message boards â he asked about the similarities to the comic âWatchmenâ
- I asked how far have they mapped out the show. Tim said they have the big, broad strokes of future seasons but not the smaller events.
- My last question was about next season and the introduction of new characters. He said âthere are several new characters coming in the immediate future.â He also said some âolder characters will cycle out of the show.â
And here is the second interview of the creators and some of the cast getting their pictures taken.
Later today and tomorrow Iâm posting even more interviews -including some of the cast of âHeroesâ and a lot more with people on the red carpet so check back.
