Heroes is a 1977 comedy drama film directed by Jeremy Kagan. It stars Henry Winkler and Sally Field, with a guest appearance by a young Harrison Ford playing a stock car driver in Sedalia, Missouri with a stolen machine gun in his motor home.

Heroes is an American science fiction serial drama television series created by Tim Kring, which premiered on NBC on September 25, 2006. The series tells the stories of ordinary individuals who discover that they have superhuman abilities. It also explores how they adapt to the changes these abilities bring, and their roles in preventing catastrophes and saving humanity. The series emulates the aesthetic style and storytelling of American comic books, using short, multi-episode story arcs that build upon a larger, more encompassing arc. Kring and the writers have an idea of where the series is heading for the first five seasons. The series is produced by Universal Media Studios in association with Tailwind Productions, and it is filmed primarily in Los Angeles, California. The executive producers are Allan Arkush, Dennis Hammer, Greg Beeman and Tim Kring. Its incidental music is composed by Wendy Melvoin and Lisa Coleman.

The first season attracted an average of 14.3 million viewers in the United States and received the highest rating for any NBC drama premiere in five years. The first season's run consisted of 23 episodes. The second season of Heroes premiered on September 24, 2007, and attracted an average of 13.1 million viewers in the United States. The second season was NBC's top series in adults 18-49, the top Monday series on any network in adults 18-49 and the top scripted series on any network in adults 18-34. 24 episodes were ordered for the second season, but only eleven episodes were broadcast, due to the 100 day strike by the Writers Guild of America. The dispute has also led to the postponement of a six episode spin-off, Heroes: Origins, which was originally expected to air in April and May 2008. On February 13, 2008 NBC announced that Heroes would return for its third season in the Fall of 2008.

A digital-internet extension of the series was introduced on January 19, 2007 as Heroes 360 Experience, which explores the Heroes universe and provides clues to the show's mythology. It was rebranded as Heroes Evolutions at the beginning of the second season. Heroes Evolutions also includes graphic novels, which have been released every Tuesday of the month since September 25, 2006, and were published by Wildstorm on November 7, 2007. Other official Heroes media include magazines, action figures, tie-in and interactive websites, a mobile game, a novel, clothing and other merchandise.

Heroes has garnered a number of awards and nominations. On July 19, 2007 Heroes was nominated in eight categories at the 2007 Primetime Emmy awards, including Outstanding Drama Series and was also nominated for Best Television Series-Drama at the 2007 Golden Globes. The series won a People's Choice Award in 2007 in the category of Best New Drama and was named Program of the Year in 2007 by the Television Critics Association. The series has also been nominated for a NAACP Image Award, WGA Award, and Satellite Award. The first season of Heroes was also a critical success. Heroes TV Show on NBC: NBC Official Site

In a bus on his way to California he meets Carol, who just left her fiancée - only 4 days before their wedding, allegedly just for a few days of vacation. Jack happily tells her about his plans to set up a worm farm for fishing baits together with four of his Vietnam ex-comrades. Although he gets on her nerves at the beginning, she starts to care. When one after the other of his friends steps out and Jack looses his optimism, Carol remains as the last support that keeps him from despair. Written by Tom Zoerner

Artist Tim Sale (I) provides the artwork for Isaac's paintings. He is best known for his work on DC Comics' popular "Batman: The Long Halloween" series, which was used as an inspiration for Batman Begins (2005).

Artist Tim Sale (I) is colorblind.

James Kyson Lee originally auditioned for Hiro (Masi Oka's character), but instead got the role of Ando.

The Bennets' address is 9 Juniper Lane.

Adrian Pasdar, who plays Milo Ventimiglia (I)'s brother, auditioned to play his father in the proposed "Gilmore Girls" (2000) spin off. The casting director at the time made the comment that Adrian could pass for Milo's brother because of their strong resemblance

Milo Ventimiglia (I) was one of the few actors considered for "Smallville" (2001)'s Clark Kent. The part, however, was given to Tom Welling.

The license plate on Kaito Nakamura's car is NCC-1701. George Takei, who plays Kaito, was Mr. Sulu in the original incarnation of "Star Trek" (1966) and NCC-1701 is the registry number of the USS Enterprise.

The premiere episode on NBC attracted 14.3 million viewers overall and received the highest rating for any NBC drama premiere in five years.

The casino that Hiro, Ando, Niki and Nathan visit in the early episodes of season one is the Montecito, the fictional casino featured in the NBC TV series "Las Vegas" (2003). The scene where Hiro and Ando are seen coming down an escalator, having used betting profits from the casino to suit up, pays a very strong homage to a similar scene in the movie Rain Man (1988).

The type of watch Hiro has is "the Connect" made by Nixon Watches.

Tawny Cypress (Simone) originally auditioned for the role of Ali Larter's character (Niki).

Greg Grunberg (Matt) originally auditioned for the part of Peter Petrelli.

It was originally intended for Claire's friend Zach eventually to be revealed as gay, and to have his coming out serve as a parallel to Claire's coming to terms with her secret abilities. However, when the manager for Thomas Dekker (I) (the actor who played Zach) discovered that this development was in store for the character, she first insisted that a line identifying Zach as gay be deleted from a script, and then pulled Dekker from the show altogether. Heroes producer and writer Bryan Fuller (II) gave an interview in April 2007 in which he explained that Dekker "was up for the John Connor role in "Sarah Connor Chronicles, The" (2007) and [the manager] didn't want him playing a gay character because it might affect FOX's interest in hiring him. It got really ugly." Fuller also said that through Zach's last appearances on the show, "in all of our minds, the character was still gay but we couldn't say it explicitly."

Mr. Bennett's business card has no name, no phone number, and no other contact information. All it says is "www.primatechpaper.com". If you go to the URL, you'll find a rudimentary website for the Primatech Paper company, including a brief company history, a phone number (1-800-PRIMA-16), and an online job application, complete with personality test.

In the German dubbed version the passages where a foreign language is spoken (i.e. Hiro and Ando speaking Japanese, Maya and Alejandro speaking Spanish) were not subtitled (as in the original version) but instead dubbed, too.

"Kirby Plaza Building" is a tribute to the famous comic book artist, Jack Kirby.

James Kyson Lee cannot speak a word of Japanese. He has to be taught it phonetically.

According to Heroes' creator, Tim Kring, Mr. Bennett has a distinct pair of glasses due to the fact he had very few lines in the beginning of the series, and needed to be recognizable by the audience. Also, Kring said the horn-rimmed glasses were chosen because they had a distinct "early days of the CIA" look.
