"In the often cutthroat world of network television it seems that many shows are often here today and gone tomorrow. Two recent examples that come to mind are Smith and Kidnapped. It is because of this climate that when a show manages to hang on and grab more and more of the audience market share, it ends up being celebrated because Heroes has managed to become a bonafide hit. This show which looks at ordinary people that are suddenly bestowed with extraordinary powers, was recently the first show picked up for a full season run.

On hand to discuss Heroes were Ali Larter, Santiago Cabrera, and show creator Tim Kring.

Ali, the series has its fair share of disconcerting moments, yours is definitely the story that's playing up to look like a horror film. Given your history with Final Destination, did you slip into the role pretty easily?

Ali Larter: You know what? I'm in a bit of fear and distress right now. But if you hold on for just one more episode, we're going to get a little romance; we'll get a little bit of cheekiness in it and it's actually what's amazing about this writing is that it really pushes me and makes me kind of find actually all different tones within our show.

So you're getting there. That's just the first couple of episodes. It definitely opens up to a whole new world."
