Almost exactly a year ago a new show about ordinary people with super powers, Heroes debuted on NBC and rather than jeers, it garnered rave reviews.

Critics and the viewing public praised the show for its bold and original writing and for its maturity. Heroes managed to take the super hero genre, which many critics believe is inherently cheesy, and gave it some legitimacy.

Today, we’ll talk to the man responsible, the Creator and Executive Producer, Tim Kring. He’ll discuss the success of the show and maybe even let the fans know a little bit about what’s going to happen in season two.
