2006 – Hiro’s Father was cast on Heroes

Just because the proverbial spring cleaning needs to be done, doesn’t mean it is always fun, but in this case, a few rare gems have surfaced… like running across a tv guide article from 2006 mentioning both Masi Oka (currently on Hawaii Five-O) and George Takei. I remember when that plotline came out Heroes and how much I enjoyed the casting of George Takei as Hiro’s father.

With Heroes Reborn in our future, this old article feels timely once more.

Flash Season 1

John Mayo, of ComicBookPage, and Kay Kellam, of PopArtsPlace, have a spoiler filled discussion about the first season of The Flash including some possible spoilers about the third season of Arrow.

The Flash, which as a TV Show, spun out of Arrow, has sped off in the ratings as a successful show in its own right on the CW Network, offering a lighter and sunnier view of a superhero based show with Grant Gustin’s Barry Allan vs. Arrow’s darker more brooding Oliver Queen (so well portrayed by Stephen Amell).

During the podcast we mention the song “you’ll never leave Harlan alive”… here is a youtube video I found of Brad Paisley singing it.  I *thought* at one point FX had posted a promotional video of the song, but was unable to locate it with a quick trip through the interweb.
