	* I think they're the same person (kind of like how [http://www.imdb.co/name/nm2359288/ James Storm] and [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0832586/ Jim Storm] are both [[James Storm]], and [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1711828/ this Jim Storm] is miscredited as being in ''Heroes''--sometimes IMDb makes those kinds of mistakes). The Alan Carter pictured is definitely matched with [http://cbs2.com/bios/Alan.Carter.Web.9.767441.html this bio], which says that he is a producer and writer (and a whole lot of other things) with tons of credits. [http://us.imdb.com/name/nm1831910/ This IMDb guy only lists two credits], whereas [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0141448/ this one lists many]. The bio says that Alan produced ''TV's 100 Most Memorable Moments'' (which matches with [http://us.imdb.com/name/nm1831910/ this IMDb]) and wrote ''The Soap Opera Awards'' (which sort of matches with [http://movies.nytimes.com/person/670073/Alan-Carter/filmography the ''NY Times'' credits], which lists him as the editor). I have a feeling that when you have a producer/writer/editor/director who 1) has a very common first and last name, 2) is very prolific, 3) is a multi-hyphenate, and 4) does a lot of single shows, variety hours, awards ceremonies, and other odds and ends, that you're going to get a few multiple bios, none of which list everything....But I'm determined to get to the bottom of it and find out for sure if we've got the right guy. I'll send a message to he guy in the picture and I'll simply ask him whether he directed the ''Heroes'' show or not. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 19:41, 28 December 2008 (EST) ~~{{Ryan's To Do}}~~		* I think they're the same person (kind of like how [http://www.imdb.co/name/nm2359288/ James Storm] and [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0832586/ Jim Storm] are both [[James Storm]], and [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1711828/ this Jim Storm] is miscredited as being in ''Heroes''--sometimes IMDb makes those kinds of mistakes).

	*** On second thought, there is no direct e-mail for Alan @ ew.com, but I guess you could write to the editor. According to EW.com, letters to the editor go to email "letters at ew.com" or via mail at "Entertainment Weekly, 1675 Broadway, New York, NY 10019". The site also says "correspondence should include the writer's full name, address, and home telephone, and may be edited for purposes of clarity or space"--so I assume the intention is for it to be printed correspondence for regarding magazine articles and I'm not sure if the question will get through that way... thus, writing to CBS2 at [http://cbs2.com/contact this link] is likely the best way. That contact page has a 'Where are they now?' drop-down option which will likely help the question get answered quickly by a newsperson whose responsibility it is to answer such inquiries.--[[User:MiamiVolts\|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts\|talk]]) 20:16, 28 December 2008 (EST)		*** On second thought, there is no direct e-mail for Alan @ ew.com, but I guess you could write to the editor.
