Heroes keeps stepping up, and even in its midseason break before the run to the finale, we get content to keep our gnawing addiction at bay.
Starting April 9th, Hana, the former Mossad operative who can “hear” the Internet, will enlist fans to help with her plans to thwart Linderman’s plots. The top-secret online activity will actually interact with the on-air story and will pay off in the Monday, April 23rd episode, when “Heroes” returns to the NBC lineup. The all-inclusive experience is designed for both fans who have followed the digital storylines from the beginning and for users that are just now joining Hana’s cause.
I just love how the Heroes site is just LITTERED with Easter Eggs and little events like this.
But for this to actually IMPACT the show as the direct result of online participation is just a wild concept. Oh sure, people have been voting for their favourite Idol for years now, but this is not a reality show.
I have heard of stunts like this before where at the end of an episode a character will make a choice based on viewer voting systems, but they always come off as hokey “we dont know how to go with these characters, so we are going to let the fans decide” instead of an honest viewer involvement.
Instead of just voting, you will be “helping” Hana get to the bottom of things. Check out Hana’s blog Here
