Heroes series creator Tim Kring made some interesting comments at a presentation at the Heroes panel at Creative Screenwriting’s 2008 Screenwriting Expo. Via IGN, the full block: Going back to the origins of the show, Kring explained how he had recognized that NBC did not have any sort of ensemble, serialized drama, in the wake of the success of shows like 24 and Lost. Having come from procedural series, including his own Crossing Jordan, Kring ...

Filed under: Programming, Heroes, Reality-FreeEveryone seems to have an idea on how Heroes can be improved. I think it's still good, but ratings are down, fans are fleeing, and it's probably not a show new fans can get into. Now creator Tim Kring has an idea.For next season, he'd like to see more self-contained episodes instead of a long continuing storyline over the entire season. He talked about what he intended to do with the ...

So they have finally come to the conclusion that they should be more like the comic book industry and move towards the equivalent of trades. Wiseguy did that, what fifteen years ago?

When Heroes writers/producers Jeph Loeb and Jesse Alexander were ousted from the show, it was clear that series creator Tim Kring was looking to change things up. I personally stopped watching Heroes because it became needlessly confusing and overstuffed—a far cry from what it was throughout most of its first season. Now Kristin dos Santos is reporting that Kring may be aiming to repeat the golden days of that first season by bringing back Bryan ...

Now they're rumored to be considering bringing in Pushing Daisies' Bryan Fuller to replace them. But what changes - if any - will the loss of Jeph Loeb and Jesse Alexander bring to the superhero soap? And are they the right changes to save the show ...

So now Kring wants to get back to a more ...

There's some high drama going on behind the scenes on Heroes: Two of the show's executive producers Jeph Loeb and Jesse Alexander are leaving Heroes, with everyone citing the age-old "creative differences" as the cause. According to Zap2It, the two "have been with the show since its first season two years ago and were heavily involved in day-to-day production. Whatever geek cred the show still has, however, could take a hit with their departure." I'm ...

Filed under: Industry, Heroes, Reality-FreeSo the big Heroes backlash now has two victims.NBC has fired two producers that have been with the show since day one, Jesse Alexander and Jeph Loeb. The show has been getting a lot of negative press lately (actually, ever since the strike-shortened second season), including this Entertainment Weekly cover story on what's wrong with the show and how to fix it. Sources say the two were let go because Universal ...
