With the second-season premiere of “Heroes” scheduled for next Monday at 9 PM, I had hoped I’d be able to provide you with a few teasers of what the episode contained, since NBC generally sends out advance screeners of its season premiere.
Not so, however, for “Heroes.”
I approached the network and asked if I should be expecting a screener, or if NBC wanted the critics to be watching the season premiere for the first time along with the rest of America.
“Actually,” responded a network spokesperson, “we are not sending the ‘Heroes’ premiere (or) early episodes out for review. The producers want to hold it back and allow viewers to be completely surprised. ”
Disappointing…but not entirely surprising. And, hey, it actually makes me even more excited for Monday to get here, so how can I really complain?
