Hi All,
There have been a lot of rumors going around the internets lately. And I’ve read some hateful things on twitter… and even stuff about our show being canceled. And actually even a full on article about HEROES and killing off members of the show, and about how people are told that they’re no longer on the show, and all that. Let me address this in a few sentences here, because as a member of the HEROES family (and I’ve been here since midway through season 1) I can personally vouch for a lot of things and as THE assistant to Tim Kring, I want to say a few things.
1.) Tim is a great guy. He’s honest, hardworking, smart and really super nice. That’s all. I couldn’t ask for a kinder boss or a more talented and successful person to look up to.
2.) There has been one (1) death on this show that has been discovered by an actor by reading a script and not being told - and it was a limited VERY rough draft that was only given to department heads such that they could scout locations, get wardrobe, etc. In a wardrobe fitting the actor found the script and saw it… And if you’re curious - that scene was later changed anyhow and so it was irrelevant and he got upset over nothing.
3.) Anyone who has a legitimately mean or angry thing to say about a TV show REALLY needs to reevaluate and think. We’re not brain surgeons or miracle workers or murderers or thieves — we’re just a bunch of people (a family of almost 400 actually) who simply want to entertain and produce the best thing that we can.
4.) If you could see the scripts before they get notes - and I’m talking the Studio/Network notes… Generally they are much different from what ends up on the screen… so don’t lay all the blame on the writers — it takes a village.
5.) All we want is for people to enjoy themselves and think… If that’s not what good TV is about, then I’m wrong.
I don’t know. I just don’t understand how people can be SO mean to someone who hasn’t done anything malevolent or evil since the day I’ve met him 4 years ago.
I hope HEROES gets back on your radar, and I hope you all check it out at some point in the next few months (like maybe when the episode I wrote airs in January)… Go ahead and take a look - it’s among 2 or 3 shows that look like movies every week (Lost, Heroes and Mad Men - in my humble opinion.) We’re not trying to destroy your TV experience, just trying to tell a good story with some fun stuff that happens.

The Answer
First off I have to say, WOW!
I know video games have become popular with men, but some definitely take it too far. This is one of those cases. If your man would rather play a video game then get a blow job, you MUST dump his ass. Dump him for you and for men everywhere who are given a bad name because of asshats like this. This man, or shall I say ‘boy’ most likely has fantasies of little furry medieval creatures fucking him in the ass while his friends watch. This is the type of ‘boy’ who jerks off to Laura Croft and is too tired for sex when you come home. This is a person that evolution missed, and should be prevented from breeding.
The verdict is in; this relationship will not end well.
Dump his ass.
