Heroes Roundup for 11.05.08

Variety reports that Tim Kring will be making big changes at Heroes.  He plans to simplify the storylines and go back to the show’s roots of good vs. evil.  He will also focus more on character development rather than on big plot twists.

Greg Grunberg and Brea Grant recently talked to Between Takes about working together.  Greg reveals that we will find out that Arthur is the one responsible for "everything" (which we have basically seen) and gives a few hints about the upcoming "Fugitives" volume. Brea says the end of the "Villains" volume will "shock people" and "Fugitives" will be "amazing."  To watch a video of the interview, head over to TV.com.

Brea Grant posted some new photos and video from the London MCM Expo on her blog.

TV By the Numbers says Heroes is safe from cancellation, based on their Renew/Cancel Index.  No matter what the ratings, Heroes is still NBC’s #1 scripted show, so I don’t think fans have too much to worry about as far as another season is concerned.

The ODI has a few photos of Hayden Panettiere on the set of Heroes.

Greg Grunberg talked with UGO.com about Parkman and Heroes.  He tells us that he is working with his old friend Mohinder (Sendhil Ramamurthy) again and that we will be seeing Molly (Adair Tishler) again at some point.

TV Guide wants your input on how to "fix" Heroes. They have a few pointers for the show but they’re interested in what the fans think.

io9.com looks at how the exit of Jeph Leob and Jesse Alexander will affect the show and analyzes whether or not it’s a move in the right direction.

And speaking of Jeph and Jesse, they are still out there having fun.  Yesterday, Jesse posted this photo of the guys hanging out with their rumored replacement, Bryan Fuller of Pushing Daisies:

And finally, Jack Coleman goes all HRG on the press in this YouTube video from the Hollywood Legacy Awards.
