That anyone who is a fan of Heroes can actually believe this to be a poor idea confuddles me.

I'm only afraid of over exposure. It would be cool if broadcast could do like cable, screw the nielsons and just run 16 tight episodes of something straight.

It's one of those catch-22's. You want more Heroes, but at the same time they tend to overdo stuff to the point you don't want to see it any more.

It sounds like a good idea, but pushing Heroes excessively could ruin things.

"Heroes: Origins" will air in "Heroes'" Monday night time slot, most likely after the original completes its season run (but possibly when it takes a hiatus). The net has ordered six segs of "Origins," which, combined with "Heroes" makes for 30 hours altogether.

Hopefully the Origins mini-series will be part of the Heroes first season DVD set.

Are you sure you don't mean second season. I would expect the first season to be available on DVD at or around the start of the second season so that people can catch up.

First or Second. As long I don't have to buy it separately.

First Season DVD will be out on August 28th. $60 for the 23 episodes.

Considering that the shows won't be aired until a hiatus, and the S1 dvd comes out in late August/early September, they wouldn't be part of the S1 dvd.
