Heroes

George Takei (Sulu) will play time-traveler Hiro's father on NBC's hit series Heroes.

E! Online has reported that Takei will play the father of Hiro Nakamura, the young Japanese Star Trek fan who can move through time and space using only his will.

"This is absolutely brilliant," said Masi Oka, who plays the enthusiastic young time traveler bent on saving the world. "Hiro's father is this big honcho who shows up in America with his bodyguard. He has this whole elaborate scheme to...take him back to Japan."

"I just hope I get to say, 'Dad! Sulu is my hero, not you!'" added Oka. "The sci-fi fans would love it!"

Last Monday, E! Online's Kristin Veitch said that a face familiar to genre fans would be joining Heroes, where the ninth Doctor Who, Christopher Eccleston, will be be joining the cast as well.

The 69-year-old Takei will first appear in the January 29th cliffhanger episode.

The Trek Nation will publish an exclusive interview with Takei next week.

Aha!
 
Heroes is better than Lost because you don't have to wait FOREVER to find out what's going on, and the producers of Heroes don't introduce characters (ECKOLIBBYANNALUCIA) and waste countless episodes on their backstory only to kill them off rendering those episodes worthless.

Heroes does a nice job of parceling out "reveals" without blowing their was completely. The show is good, but it hews very closely to many comics that have come before it.
 
It's fantastic and episode 10 was almost the best so far, if it hadn't been for 9. I LOVE IT MORE THAN ME OWN SON
