Heroes season 1 “Genesis” may have just come to an end, but there is still hope for all my fellow hopeless Heroes addicts of the world. According to a recent interview with the hit television show’s star Masi Oka (aka Hiro Nakamura), Heroes season 2 “Generations” is scheduled to commence filming on June 29th. Since season 2 is beginning filming so soon, rumor has it that we may just be in for a sneak peak of what’s in store for us come Comic Con this July in San Diego. Though these are only rumors at this point, I’m pretty sure Tim Kring and the rest of the Heroes crew will give us something to talk about come Comic Con, they did last time.

For a little more insight into Heroes season 2, check out this video compliments of Collider.com:

Lady’s and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, welcome to the night’s main event! It has been months in the making, riddled with plot twists, character changes, flash backs and future episodes, but the day has finally come. Heroes episode 23 airs tonight, marking the season finale and end of the hit TV shows first season!

As much as I’ve been wanting for months to know how everything comes to an end, I can’t help but be sad thinking that tonight will be the last full episode of Heroes for who knows how long. Season two has already been confirmed by Tim Kring, but as far as I know they have yet to even begin filming the hit TV shows second season.

Tonight’s season finale of Heroes on NBC is guaranteed to be fantastic as everything will finally come together and we’ll finally learn whether or not the cast of Heroes will be able to stop an exploding man.

Stay tuned for the Heroes episode 23 live blog, starting at 6pm PST/9pm EST!

Let’s get this baby started. Find out what happens in Heroes episode 23, live after the jump!

The cast of NBC Heroes as a whole has always been relatively celebrity free, that is of course until famed British actor Malcolm McDowell joined the cast as the infamous Mr. Linderman.

Now, I will admit, at first I thought casting McDowell as Mr. Linderman was a terrible idea. The writers behind Heroes had spent a number of episodes referring to Linderman, building up his character, making him a shadowy, mysterious, sinister figure that was to be feared, and I just didn’t see McDowell as that person. Although the more Mr. Linderman was featured, the more his character began to grow on me and the more I realized McDowell was the perfect person for the role. As Mr. Linderman’s character developed over the course of just a few episodes, McDowell’s acting abilities and on screen experience really began to shine, bringing the once mysterious and sinister character to life.

Malcolm McDowell was born Malcolm John Taylor on June 13th, 1943 in Leeds, England and has been a well respected actor for the majority of his life. McDowell’s first step into acting was as Crispin Ryder in the 1964 TV series “Crossroads,” though it wasn’t until 1971 that the spotlight fully focused on McDowell when he starred as Alex de Large in the epic Stanley Kubrick film, A Clockwork Orange. McDowell’s role as Alex was the catch of the century, as A Clockwork Orange is considered by many (myself included), to be one of the single most influential movies of the 20th century.

Since his prolific role in A Clockwork Orange, Malcolm McDowell has appeared in quite literally hundreds of movies and TV shows in roles ranging from simple cameo’s to lead characters.

Of all the many roles McDowell has taken on, my personal favorites are that of Alex in A Clockwork Orange, Terence in HBO Entourage and, of course, the mysterious Mr. Linderman in NBC Heroes.

Heroes Episode 22, entitled “Landslide”, will air Monday, May 14th at 9pm EST on NBC (8pm PST on Global TV in Canada), signalling what is very nearly the end of the hit TV shows first season.

Heroes season 1 is almost at an end and things are all starting to come together, though for as many story lines as they have brought together, the writers have managed to create equally as many loose ends that still need tieing up. Though I have to say, after having watched all of the Heroes episode 22 spoiler videos, a few pieces of the puzzle have started to fall into place. If you haven’t yet had a chance to watch the spoiler videos, I highly recommend it. If you prefer to keep the visual clues to a minimum, then give these Heroes episode 22 descriptions a run through for an idea of what to expect!

Official NBC Heroes episode 22 description:

AS LINDERMAN ARRIVES, NATHAN CONSIDERS THE COST TO WIN THE ELECTION; MALCOLM MCDOWELL, ERIC ROBERTS AND GEORGE TAKEI GUEST-STAR — Poised to become a member of Congress and maybe more, Nathan (Adrian Pasdar) considers the cost to those he loves, along with his mother’s (guest star Cristine Rose) advice and Linderman’s (guest star Malcolm McDowell, “Entourage,””A Clockwork Orange”) prophecy. As he prepares to face Sylar (guest star Zachary Quinto) to the death, Hiro (Golden Globe nominee Masi Oka) learns of his lineage from his father (guest star George Takei, “Star Trek”). While various “heroes” fatefully arrive in New York City, Peter (Milo Ventimiglia) and Ted (Matthew John Armstrong) attempt to leave the city before the foretold explosion. H.R.G. (Jack Coleman) and Matt (Greg Grunberg) learn the surprising truth behind the tracking system used on people with special abilities. Santiago Cabrera, Noah Gray-Cabey, Ali Larter, Hayden Panettiere, Sendhil Ramamurthy and Leonard Roberts also star. Clea DuVall, Justin Evans, James Kyson Lee, Missy Peregrym, Eric Roberts, Rena Sofer, Adair Tishler and Jackson Wurth guest-star.

Unofficial Heroes episode 22 description by TV Guide:

Nathan weighs his mother’s advice against plans by Linderman; Hiro gets some family information as he prepares to face Sylar; Peter and Ted try to leave New York to avoid the explosion. George Takei and Eric Roberts guest star.

Unofficial Heroes episode 22 description by TV.com:

Angela Petrelli is forced to play a bigger role in Nathan, Peter, and Claire’s life. The truth about the death of Nathan and Peter’s father is finally revealed along with his true identity. When Nathan finds out that he may have a chance to become more than mayor he is confronted with a decision that he must make. As election day nears some try to leave NYC. HRG and Matt learn another surprising secret. Also, Sylar is eating another hero’s brain. Hiro’s dad returns.

If that doesn’t get your excitement peaked, nothing will. By the sounds of it, episode 22 is going to be a good one and I for one cannot wait to see what happens. I’ve had suspicions about Nathan and Peter’s father for a long time now and I really want to know who it is. There are so many possibilities, it could almost be anyone. My original suspicion was that Linderman was Nathan and Peter’s father, though from the sounds of things, I’m most likely wrong. Either way, I don’t think their father is actually dead, hiding-out, or maybe even invisible (yeah, I’m referring to Claude here), but not dead. I guess we’ll just have to wait until Monday to find out. Or will we?

I know, I know, it has been way to long since I last updated. I couldn’t even manage a live blog of Heroes episode 21 this past monday, though I did watch the show. Not only did I have friends over watching the show with me, I had a photographer in the house for over 4-hours! I’m going to be featured in the June/July issue of BC Business Magazine and they needed to get some pictures of me in my blogging element, though I certainly wasn’t expecting him to kick around for 4-hours. So, needless to say, I wasn’t able to get my live blog on. Rest assured, with only two episodes left, there is no chance I will miss another one!

To get things kicked into gear for the second to last episode, here are some prime Heroes episode 22 spoilers, enjoy!

This doesn’t happen very often, especially when it comes to Heroes, but I have actually been trying to keep myself from watching or reading any spoilers for Heroes episode 20, and let me tell you, it has been hard. I’ve finally cracked under the pressure, I just couldn’t help it.

Episode 20 is entitled “Five Years Gone” and will take place 5 years in the future, offering a glimpse into exactly how things may come to be. Good heroes go bad, bad heroes reform and some can’t seem to make up there mind. Heroes episode 20 hasn’t even aired yet and is already being compared to such monumental episodes as episode 17 “Company Man”. With that in mind, be prepared for some pretty shocking revelations.

If, like me, you lack an iron will and have to learn what to expect before the episode airs, you can find some fantastic Heroes episode 20 spoiler videos after the jump!
