No More Heroes ... At Least Until Fall
Hayden Panettiere let it leak that
Heroes won't be back for the rest of the season, even though the strike is coming to an end. Maybe this will allow the writers to focus on Season Three (Season 2.0 Redux?) and come out of the gate with a bang instead of a whimper. After all, we know they've filmed part of
Volume Three: Villains and that it's all about the bad guys, so how can they screw that up? Plus
Zachary Quinto will be done with Spock duty, so they can cram more Sylar in there for extra brain-munching action. [

Milo Wuvs Hayden, We Saw It Coming
At the Jules Verne Adventure Film Festival last month during the
Heroes event, we noticed that
Milo Ventimiglia and
Hayden Panettiere were canoodling with each other the whole time, whispering back and forth like giddy schoolkids. But, we chalked it up to nerves and confusion about what was going on during the Q&A. For instance, Milo's answer to "How has
Heroes changed your life?" was "I don't really know what to say." Nice. Our tabloid-papparazzo circuit wasn't working properly that day and anyhow, now it's
official. The brother/sister set of Peter Petrelli and
Claire Bennet are Hollywood's newest incestuous power couple. At least until Sylar swoops in and eats their brains, hoping to gain some of their couple-of-the-moment pheromones.

Jack Coleman has the enviable position of breathing life into television's best and worst father each week on NBC's
Heroes. During the day he'll be bringing home teddy bears to his indestructible daughter Claire, while that night he'll gun someone down and work with genetically mutated viruses. He's gone through more character twists than a corkscrew and returned from the dead. We caught up with him at a Beverly Hills lunch spot to find out exactly what's going on with the show and his parenting skills.

interview
It's not quite Monday without a new episode of
Heroes, so we're bringing you the next best possible thing: an interview with creators
Tim Kring and
Jeph Loeb and a slew of photos of the cast. Check everything out after the jump — it's something to do while you wait impatiently with the rest of us for the writers strike to end sometime before reality TV eats our brains faster than Sylar ever could.

Heroes continues to one-up
Lost as often as possible; as the cast of ABC's castaway drama get continually arrested for DUIs, actors from NBC's superhero soap are now in danger of finding themselves arrested for
saving the world.

Is season two of
Heroes all about incest? It sure starts to look that way. The uber-connected Kristen at EOnline speculates that Claire's new boyfriend could be her cousin, since he has the same power as Claire's biological dad. And Claire has the same power as the fake Samurai hero Kensei — who will soon be turning up in the present day, 400 years older. Is everybody on this show related to everybody else? The good news is, the scriptwriters are deliberately playing up the "two gay dads" subtext with Mohinder, Parkman and Molly. Gay dads are so much more wholesome than flying quasi-incest!
