Message From Founder
For as long as history has been recorded, it has recorded the story of heroes. Whether it be the myths of those possessing supernatural abilities or the legends of the ordinary finding the extraordinary inside themselves, common strings can be found through all of these tales. The Yamagato Fellowship is dedicated to the study of these heroes - to highlight their courage, their passion and their intellect. By looking into the past, it is our hope that we will all be better equipped to identify and inspire the heroes walking among us today.
- Kaito Nakamura

Do you think they're saving Hiro meeting the dinosaur for season 2?
He already met the dinosaur. It was in the museum.
Maybe it was a red herring.
TWOP interview with Jack Coleman. I just started listening to it so I have NO IDEA whether or not it's spoilerly.
From an NBC press release posted by The Futon Critic:
NBC Digital Entertainment today announced the launch of its new original web series "Inside Heroes." The eight installment series will go inside the making of "Heroes" and will begin rolling out exclusively on NBC.com on May 21st. The same day, "Heroes" Character Profiles will launch on the site as well. Additionally, the popular "Heroes" online graphic novel continues this summer with new chapters. The announcements were made by Vivi Zigler, Executive Vice President, NBC Digital Entertainment and New Media.
In Network Drama, Kristen mentioned a clip from a Futon Critic article:
NBC "bulks up" with 30 combined episodes of "Heroes" and "Heroes: Origins," an innovative new spin-off that each week will introduce a new character -- one of whom will be chosen by viewers through the "Heroes" website on NBC.com to become a cast regular the following season.
I was outraged for a second, and I'm not sure why? Because a new character every week would be interesting! And, you know, more Heroes, so good. But... viewers vote to add a character?!?
I've just confused myself.
