For writer-producer Tim Kring (Chicago Hope, Crossing Jordan), his series Heroes was a way to bring a full meal to audiences: comedy, melodrama, action and a continuing story line. He discusses superpowers and a balanced diet.
Kring talks about the challenges of writing a show with so many story lines and characters; his influences, which range from The Incredibles and Watchmen to Charles Dickens; meeting the demands of a very vocal and tech-savvy fans; the show's evolving color palette and this season's focus on characters' special powers and their use for good or evil.
