	''Sally Champlin'': I saw the first episode and loved its cinematic look. The story concept was so fascinating - lots of story threads going on in the hands of compelling characters. I loved that it was shot on film. My film, ''Family Secrets'', was shot on film - film is the best. The producers of ''Heroes'' are amazing, the directors the finest, and the writers brilliant. I'm very blessed to be part of their baby.		''Sally Champlin'': I saw the first episode and loved its cinematic look.

	I've missed seeing more recent episodes because I've been working long hours on my website, [http://sallychamplin.com sallychamplin.com], which is about two weeks away from launching the first episode of its podcast series, ''"Hollywood According to Sal"'', which we began shooting several months ago. By the way, folks are invited to subscribe to sallychamplin.com when they visit (they can sample and purchase some great music right now!). Anyway, after we launch ''HATS'', new episodes will rotate in the home page window with new ones added regularly. I've also been producing some elegant music videos; great music videos are like little film jewels and I love filmmaking. Anyway, I'll plug back into ''Heroes'' in the fall. Can't miss it for long.

	I would like Lynette to have the power of foresight with no way to change what she sees coming except physically, and when she does cause a change in the future, it's through how she affects another person who does the changing and not Lynette herself, who is helpless. She could be the ultimate catalyst/witness/mother-of-us-all. If Lynette carries the weight of the world around with her always, it's no wonder she walks slowly; and as she ages, she sees more clearly and the weight gets heavier. So, as she lives, it's all she can do to get from one place to another because the psychic load gets heavier by the second. Also, it's a bit like the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Myth_of_Sisyphus Myth of Sisyphus] - there's always another rock to roll up the hill. That might be an interesting struggle for a character like Lynette - simple woman, ever-growing burden. She might want to kill herself to escape the load. One never knows, do one?
