Next year, we're apparently getting a Heroes spin off show called "Heroes: Origins". These will be stand-alone episodes featuring new characters. Six episodes have been ordered. The current plan is to air them when Heroes season 2 is on hiatus, or has ended its season, so as to have a more uninterrupted Heroes experience. Sounds cool to me!

Meanwhile, kestrell and I finally saw the penultimate episode. I posted the following as a comment on rufinia's LJ, but thought it deserved to be repeated on my own: ( minor spoilers for 'Landslide' )
