Nothing's official, but the buzz is that a tentative agreement has been reached,
with an announcement coming as early as tomorrow. But it's hard to tell what's
solid intel and what's just spin. To wit: In the past 24 hours, one source close
to the negotiations insisted that talk of a resolution was way premature.
"There's no deal," maintained my spy. "That's just misinformation put out by the
AMPTP to pressure the WGA." But moments before I put this column to bed, I heard
from another very plugged-in source that the deal is done. Short story shorter:
There's cause for optimism, but not celebration. Yet.

Big Ali Larter Spoiler!
01/08 - No [Niki is not coming back(Damn!)]. But that doesn't mean we've seen the last of Ali Larter. I'm hearing that the plan as of the last time the writers met up (prestrike) was for Niki to be dead—but for an alter ego to take over. Not Jessica (double damn!), not the whipped-cream chick from Varsity Blues, and that leaves...someone we've seen before. Of course, all that is subject to change due to the current holding pattern.

Newswire 1.8.08
Hayden Panettiere tells Lucky magazine’s February issue that she lives for those moments off-set of “Heroes” when she can wear something other than a cheerleading outfit! “On the show, I spend most of my time in a cheerleading uniform,” the 18-year-old actress says, “so in real life I like to have a lot more fun with my clothes.” Panettiere plays Claire, the literally invincible cheerleader on NBC’s hit drama series. Describing her style as “very frenetic,” the actress admits her penchant for panoply “changes as quickly as my mood.” But, she confesses, her obsession “about really stunning heels” is perfectly consistent. “I get excited even taking the elevator up to the shoe floor at Bergdorf’s.” Lucky hits newsstands Thursday.

Malcolm McDowell ("Linderman") on Lindsay Anderson
BY DANA OLAND - doland@idahostatesman.com
Edition Date: 01/04/08
Malcolm McDowell met Lindsay Anderson at a nerve-wracking audition in 1967. At the time, McDowell had no idea that interaction would change his life.
Anderson cast McDowell as Mick Travis, the student revolutionary in "If" a film that propelled McDowell to stardom in England and led to McDowell's most famous role, as Alex de Large in Stanley Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange."
The two clicked on film and became lifelong friends. McDowell created a one-man show as an endearing tribute in 2004, on the 10th anniversary of Anderson's death. Now it's a film, directed and produced by Caldwell-based filmmaker Mike Kaplan, who, along with McDowell, will present the film, "Never Apologize," at a one-time showing Jan. 12 at the Egyptian Theatre. The showing is for an Idaho International Film Festival event.
The film is funny, poignant and fascinating as McDowell delves into Anderson's complex psyche and shares bits of theatrical and film lore and history. He recreates this evocative time in British film through his memories, Anderson's diaries, books and letters. He deftly recreates all the larger-than-life characters who intersected Anderson's story, including John Gielgud, Lillian Gish, John Ford, Bette Davis, Alan Bates and Rachel Roberts. Some may have fallen out of popular memory, but this film offers a chance to remember and explore some of the best films of that era.
As a filmmaker, Anderson helped shape our contemporary view of film as art.
Somewhat of a radical character, Anderson made movies that pushed at the social fabric of the 1960s. His films included the raw, gritty, Oscar-nominated "This Sporting Life" (1963), his groundbreaking trilogy "If," "O Lucky Man" and "Britannia Hospital" and the lyrical ode "The Whales of August."
The title for the piece comes from a mantra of Anderson: "I never apologize," even though he was easily one of the most difficult and demanding personalities around.

Rumors have been swirling for awhile now, but the paparazzi caught Heroes stars Hayden Panettiere and Milo Ventimiglia out together in LA this weekend. (Click here to see the photo.)
Hayden only recently turned 18, and Milo is 30. I bet someone was counting the days until she turned 18! Before hooking up with Milo (and before turning 18), Hayden dated Laguna Beach star Stephen Colletti.

LOS ANGELES — It seems the romance between Kate Hudson and comedian Dax Shepard is definitely off and things between the comic and "Heroes" star Kristen Bell are definitely on.
The comely new couple was caught getting cozy together at Bahamas hotspot Aura Nightclub at Atlantis last Thursday, where they danced and drank into the wee hours.
"At first they seemed a little awkward together and with the attention," our spy said. "But eventually they relaxed; I guess it is never easy 'coming out' with a new relationship."

It's brilliant the way the U.S. Postal Service sells all kinds of collectors stamps they know won't be used as postage, thus padding the profit margin. I mean, no Elvis fan could allow the King to be canceled, could they?
In the same vein, "Heroes" fans could look forward to licking the backside of Peter Petrelli postage and slapping Hiro Nakamura onto their utility bills - not that they would.
Head on over to the NBC Universal Store and check out all five "Heroes"-themed stamps available in sheets of 20. Besides Peter and Hiro, sheets featuring Claire, Nathan and the Helix symbol are also available. Single sheets of one of the four characters sell for $21.95, while a set of all five sheets sells for $99.95, a savings of $9.80.
Clearly, these are must-haves for only the most die-hard "Heroes" fans. Sure, they're frame-worthy, but I don't have an extra Benjamin for stamps I can't use to send mail ...
You could use them, however, to send your strongly worded letters urging the writers and studios to get back to the bargaining table so we have a chance of seeing actual "Heroes" episodes before fall. (DEFINATLY!!!)

The Howard Roarke Testimony from "The Fountainhead"
This is the monolouge of Howard Roarke, played by Gary Cooper, in the motion picture "The Fountainhead." I'm not an Ayn Rand fan, but these words pretty much sum up who I am as best as anything.
You comments are welcome.

Spoilers and Updates
Well, it's MOnday night. Merry What's-Left-Of-Xmas to ya. Let get to work.
Hard Knox.
Well, the Heroes event at the Jules Verne Festival in L.A. gave the fans something to hope the writers and the moguls come to thier senses. They showed an eyes only trailer of V3/Villians...and it seems that the show is back on track:
As the clip reprises the Sylar preview from Powerless, Angela, all powerWoman, says there's going to be some changes here. That, and the "I'm back" moment, may be Kring telling the faithful that we're getting back on track.
It seems to set up a major confrontation between Elle and Sylar:
Elle: I'm not afraid of you
Syler: You should be....I'm a psycopathic killer.
Elle: It takes one to know one.
Damn!
Then, Angela breaks out the plot: "Theve been sitting on the files of the most dangerous...the most powerful...rapists, arsonists, killers......." she it goes unitellegable.
You see brief flashes of Hiro, Claire, maybe Matt. Nothing about Nathan or Niki/Jessica.
Now one of the sources says that one of the villians will be a man named Knox, who will "end Micah's storyline and change Monica's life forever." And God help knox if Jessica's alive!
I like the line, "like 12 Sylars running free." Is it possible that the Comp. and Sylar migh align?
SO here are you spoilers guys.....
11/11 - I’m hearing from multiple very reliable sources that when (and if) Heroes kicks off the second half of its season, it’ll look very different from what was initially planned. Let’s just say the complaints from fans and critics about the overabundance of new characters and weak overarching story have not fallen on deaf ears, and that changes are being made to return the show to its winning Season 1 formula.
11/11 - Though Israeli freedom fighter Hana died in outer space in a Heroes graphic novel, her consciousness survives. “We will see her again on the show at some point,” promises Jeph Loeb.
10/14 - Since part of the action will now follow Micah to New Orleans, the show is introducing a pair of Crescent Citizens to interact with him and his cousin. First up is Officer Warren, a twentysomething good guy who sounds like a likely love interest for new Hero Monica. They do, after all, have the same hobby: crime fighting. On the flip side of the coin is Knox, a twentysomething bad guy recently sprung from the pokey.
10/29 - James Kyson Lee reveals: You might see [a woman from Japan] coming into Ando’s life pretty soon. It’s the second half of the season that gets really interesting for Ando. [Note: He wouldn’t confirm that said love interest would be Hiro’s sister.]
10/14 - Officer Warren - 25. Male. African-America. Handsome leading man. A police officer from New Orleans, Officer Warren works very hard to clean up the streets of the city he loves.
[This is a recurring character who will appear in at least episodes 13, 14 and 16.] Knox - 25. Male. African-America. Frightening and intense - with the eyes of a predator — Knox has returned to New Orleans with plans to reclaim the criminal territory he used to run before he was sent to prison. [This is a recurring character who will appear in at least episodes 13 and 14.]
10/06 - Our source just informed me that “Badass” Future Hiro will make another appearance sooner than we expect and will also be seen in another “future” episode of Heroes. As I reported about a week ago in the episode breakdown that Episode 13 is scheduled to be the future episode, but our source mentioned that this might change and the future will air sooner than expected.
10/06 - TV Squad offers a summary of spoilers: Down the road, fans will learn what are Mr. Nakamura’s powers (and yes, “are” is a key word here).
09/03 - Ricky Gervais has revealed he will appear in the second [season] of Heroes. [Note: No official sources confirmed these spoilers so far.]
08/03 - The latest actor to join the show for its second season is [The Nine’s] Jessica Collins, who will take on a recurring role. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Collins will play Sophie, “a mysterious woman with powers who works at the organization that is tracking all heroes.”
07/30 - Look for a dangerous new Francophone character named Sophie. She’s the employee of a powerful, mysterious group, and she’s “not afraid to use lethal force to accomplish her mission.
Source: SpoilerFix
In addition:
Ali Larter will return to the show and her storyline will be wrapped up in Volume 3. (NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!)
2) Micah’s storyline will end also. (NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!)
3) David Anders (Adam) will return and will meet a new friend.
4) Adrian Pasdar “might be back so don’t worry”.
5) Zachary Quinto (Sylar) will be more badass than ever and will kill a star on the show. (Kring will you stop with all the damn killing?)
6) Villians is the start of something bigger on Heroes and hopefully it will be more fast paced than Volume 2.
The Podcast.
We're still working on getting our live show of the ground, first we have to deal with Now Live tech support...if it exsists. But from what I have seen, once this thing is up and running, we will be able to do a 30 minute show WITH CALL INS FROM YOU live every Monday night when the show comes back. Also we'll be able to do a chat during the show and after. For now I will be doing this via my cellphone, so your support is vital. If you have any show ideas, e-mail me at donald.paschal@yahoo.com.

From Rotten Tomatoes: The writers' strike might have brought Season Two of NBC's Heroes to a premature end, but series star Milo Ventimiglia isn't just sitting around twiddling his thumbs; in fact, you're about to see quite a lot of him at a theater near you.As Ventimiglia tells Entertainment Weekly, he's working on two films before Christmas -- and that's in addition to Pathology, the long-delayed medical thriller he'll be starring in early next year. Dig it:I'm pretty busy. I'm doing two features before Christmas. One is called Game, and that's with Gerard Butler and Amber Valletta. It's written and directed by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, the same guys who did Pathology, the movie I have coming out in the spring.Game finds Ventimiglia playing, in his words, "a very interesting futuristic character that's not necessarily in control of himself." He's also playing the villain in Chaos Theory, an independent feature "about a guy who leads a very organized life, and someone comes into that life and just sets a downward spiral in motion."
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/10008496-pathology/news/1698049/
The EClaire shippers may have some added ammo: Seems Hayden has a bi streak:
According to New Zealand's Stuff, The stunning 18-year-old actress - who plays indestructible cheerleader Claire Bennet in the hit US TV series - would love somebody to start a rumour about her sexuality and ideally would like to be romantically linked to Angelina Jolie!
Down boy!
http://www.stuff.co.nz/stuff/4288589a1860.html
Finally, Adrian Pasdar's musical, Atlanta, hit the boards in LA recently. The critics did talk thier shots, saying that Adrian's direct may have been one of the weakest links in the piece. But high praise for Adrian's buddy, ex-DL Leonard Roberts, who was called having "who has a strong voice and presence....moving as the tormented slave Hamlet."

Claire's First Assigment (graphic novel..no shipping!)
Part 1:
A Norman Rockwell world where shadowed darkness lies.
In a tale of times past, Elle receives her very first assignment: monitor Claire Bennet. Posing as a student at Union Wells High School, the task proves far more difficult than she ever imagined.
Summary
Bob hands his daughter a file containing Claire's school schedule along with pictures of her family. Elle brushes off the assignment as a waste, but Bob tells her Claire and her blood could become major benefits to the Company, comparing her to Linderman and Arthur Petrelli.
On Day 17 of her assignment, Elle sits behind Claire in social studies class and thinks about how much she hates this assignment, even drawing a picture of her electrocuting Claire. She says she now hates Claire— the first time they met, she only disliked her.
At night, Elle is spying on Noah and Sandra on the grass outside their house when Mr. Muggles comes running up to her and begins barking. Elle pleads with him to quiet down, but he continues barking (Elle and Mr. Muggles are both inside the sidewalk). Elle says she warned him and begins charging the ground, but unfortunately for her, the sprinklers turn on and she ends up shocking herself.
Standing in the shadows, a woman tells Elle she read her file, including how water can cause her ability to short out and shock herself. The woman rushes toward Elle, thus revealing herself to be Eden. Eden reaches Elle and begins to beat her down, telling her that if she doesn't use her power, then she won't use hers. But before Eden can get another punch in, Noah comes outside and tells Eden to leave Elle alone. Noah then tells Elle to stop spying on his family because watching over Claire is his job. Elle disagrees and tells him once Claire manifests her power, she'll be the one who trains her and will be as nice to Claire as Eden was to Elle.
Back at school, Elle comments on how interesting it is that Claire is hanging out with the school pariah— Zach.
http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/video/video_display.shtml#mea=194954
Part 2
Zach attack!
Elle received her first assignment from the company: find out what Claire Bennet's power is, if she even has one. Opposed by the Man in Horn-Rimmed Glasses, Elle decides to give Claire a push in the right direction...
Summary
Outside Claire's school, Elle watches Claire and Zach talk, and as Noah comes to pick Claire up from school, he gives Elle a disapproving look.
As Zach and Claire walk home from the abandoned refinery after filming Claire's sixth test of her ability, Elle watches from afar through binoculars and realizes she just missed them. However, she noticed the two looking at a tape and decides to take a new approach to her assignment.
Elle knocks on the front door of Zach's home and he answers, asking Elle who she is. She invites herself in and tells him her name is Cindy—she's in his fourth period English class and he told her he'd let her copy his notes. Zach doesn't recall that ever happening, but Elle ignores him and checks to see if Zach's parents are home. After asking for the tape and submitting to the fact flirting with Zach is futile, she resorts to threatening him with a ball of electricity. Before Elle can use it, Noah comes in and pistol whips Elle, knocking her out.
Noah asks Zach if he's all right, and Zach says he is and thanks Noah for saving his life. Zach asks Noah why his friend is there, and Noah replies by telling Zach he's going to make sure Elle never bothers him again. After that, Noah and the Haitian turn to Zach and Noah asks where the tape Elle was talking about is.
On Day 27 of her assignment, Elle sits in social studies class and ponders what else she could be doing that was more important. Claire turns to Zach and asks who the blonde that looks like she wants to kill her is, but Zach says he's never seen her before. Elle reminds herself her dad said Claire might not even have an ability, so if she doesn't manifest by the end of the week, the assignment was canceled. Elle thinks this is fantastic, because if she had to attend Homecoming, she might have to shoot herself.

A Norman Rockwell world where shadowed darkness lies.
In a tale of times past, Elle receives her very first assignment: monitor Claire Bennet. Posing as a student at Union Wells High School, the task proves far more difficult than she ever imagined.
Summary
Bob hands his daughter a file containing Claire's school schedule along with pictures of her family. Elle brushes off the assignment as a waste, but Bob tells her Claire and her blood could become major benefits to the Company, comparing her to Linderman and Arthur Petrelli.
On Day 17 of her assignment, Elle sits behind Claire in social studies class and thinks about how much she hates this assignment, even drawing a picture of her electrocuting Claire. She says she now hates Claire— the first time they met, she only disliked her.
At night, Elle is spying on Noah and Sandra on the grass outside their house when Mr. Muggles comes running up to her and begins barking. Elle pleads with him to quiet down, but he continues barking (Elle and Mr. Muggles are both inside the sidewalk). Elle says she warned him and begins charging the ground, but unfortunately for her, the sprinklers turn on and she ends up shocking herself.
Standing in the shadows, a woman tells Elle she read her file, including how water can cause her ability to short out and shock herself. The woman rushes toward Elle, thus revealing herself to be Eden. Eden reaches Elle and begins to beat her down, telling her that if she doesn't use her power, then she won't use hers. But before Eden can get another punch in, Noah comes outside and tells Eden to leave Elle alone. Noah then tells Elle to stop spying on his family because watching over Claire is his job. Elle disagrees and tells him once Claire manifests her power, she'll be the one who trains her and will be as nice to Claire as Eden was to Elle.
Back at school, Elle comments on how interesting it is that Claire is hanging out with the school pariah— Zach.

Part 2
Zach attack!
Elle received her first assignment from the company: find out what Claire Bennet's power is, if she even has one. Opposed by the Man in Horn-Rimmed Glasses, Elle decides to give Claire a push in the right direction...
Summary
Outside Claire's school, Elle watches Claire and Zach talk, and as Noah comes to pick Claire up from school, he gives Elle a disapproving look.
As Zach and Claire walk home from the abandoned refinery after filming Claire's sixth test of her ability, Elle watches from afar through binoculars and realizes she just missed them. However, she noticed the two looking at a tape and decides to take a new approach to her assignment.
Elle knocks on the front door of Zach's home and he answers, asking Elle who she is. She invites herself in and tells him her name is Cindy—she's in his fourth period English class and he told her he'd let her copy his notes. Zach doesn't recall that ever happening, but Elle ignores him and checks to see if Zach's parents are home. After asking for the tape and submitting to the fact flirting with Zach is futile, she resorts to threatening him with a ball of electricity. Before Elle can use it, Noah comes in and pistol whips Elle, knocking her out.
Noah asks Zach if he's all right, and Zach says he is and thanks Noah for saving his life. Zach asks Noah why his friend is there, and Noah replies by telling Zach he's going to make sure Elle never bothers him again. After that, Noah and the Haitian turn to Zach and Noah asks where the tape Elle was talking about is.
On Day 27 of her assignment, Elle sits in social studies class and ponders what else she could be doing that was more important. Claire turns to Zach and asks who the blonde that looks like she wants to kill her is, but Zach says he's never seen her before. Elle reminds herself her dad said Claire might not even have an ability, so if she doesn't manifest by the end of the week, the assignment was canceled.
