[NAFDA] The place for casting and other vague spoilers, for those who merely want to wade, not drown, in the spoiler sea. Episode titles, writers, and preview speculation in black font. Exiting cast, TV Guide and other entertainment articles and their discussion white-fonted. Hard core spoilers are not allowed.
Heroes casting news from the HRG Files:
There are two standout crossword performers on our show. Can you guess who they are? They are Cris Rose and Ashley Crow (Stanford and Auburn, respectively). Both are really strong. Honorable mention goes to Zeljko Ivanek, a very solid and seasoned crossword player. It seems a bit unfair that he should be so good at it, though, when his very name has been so obviously designed by puzzle makers. Zeljko has come aboard for an extended arc as a guy you wouldn't want on your trail. He's a great actor, recently winning an Emmy Award for Damages. Imdb him and be prepared for some lengthy reading. He's in everything. And he's a great addition to our story. Whereas there have been cases of adding characters that only serve to crowd the landscape, Zeljko's character does the opposite. He provides an antagonist that allows our characters to rally together. You'll see.
(If only I could spell.)
Who casting speculation
edit, so if it's 5:30 in the UK does that mean it's already happened? If so, you Brits better spill!
Laga, for some reason Who spoilage is in the real spoilers thread. it has been announced and it's none of those three.

Chewie

Piece about
Matt Smith
from last year. (I think.)
Doctor Who Confidential - no spoiler other than the casting thing.
I have to say, since the
Doctor Who
casting news was front page news on most of the UK papers (I mean, not main headline, but front page) AND it was revealed to the British public not simply on TV on the
Doctor Who Confidential
episode, but was considered important enough that BBC1 simulcast the show live on their outdoor screens around the country in city centre locations including Hull, Liverpool, Rotherham, Swindon, Swansea, Norwich and Walthamstow...well, trying to treat it as a spoiler, light or otherwise, seems rather like tilting at windmills. imho. ymmv.
In the US you're pretty much OK if you keep to the headlines. "Relative Unknown to be New Doctor."
