    "Heroes: Origins" will center on characters not yet seen on the original show. Peacock has also added an interactive element to the show: Viewers will be asked to pick their favorite character from "Origins," who will then join the cast of the full-blown "Heroes" skein the following year.

      Let's hope they add these to the DVD set... it would be wise to do so. The show is becoming very disjointed, though and once the 'world is saved' (or NYC), I feel it faltering a lot... and if you miss just one episode, you are really confused.

      Also, "Medium" was mentioned as January return on Sunday nights. Doesn't NBC ever learn from mistakes? It used to air in the 10/9pm time slot on Mondays and did extremely well there, but they got greedy and moved it to bump up Wednesdays, however, it ran opposite ABC's smash "Lost" (horriffic move) - now, it gets put on delayed return following the end of football season... DUMB NBC. Put it back on Mondays in its ORIGINAL slot following "Heroes" where it would do very well. Your "Black Donnellys" embasilic Monday night move was beyond comprehension... obviously, considering previous ratings and demographics of competetive networks' shows/ratings, "Medium" belongs there.
