Did you happen to catch last night’s episode of THE SIMPSONS? Talk about bizarre. First we witness three of the most celebrated graphic novelists of our time [Alan Moore, Art Spiegelman and Dan Clowes] defend guest star Jack Black’s new comic book shop “Coolisville” against an angry Comic Book Guy. Then quickly cut to an [...]

With our one day strike in support of the WGA finally behind us [Seriously, who'd have guessed that not blabbering on endlessly about television for a day would be so difficult!] this TV Addict can finally get a few things off his chest. First on the list — HEROES. It’s not so much that I [...]

Today’s good news — HEROES showrunner Tim Kring finally acknowledged to EW.com what this TV Addict has been saying for months — HEROES is broken. Revealing among other things that the pace of the season has been too slow, the new heroes weren’t introduced properly and Hiro was in Japan for far too long [well duh!]. [...]

Today, NBC announced that as a result of the looming writer’s strike, the peacock network is pulling the plug on the much-hyped HEROES spin-off ORIGINS. ORIGINS, set to fill the void between April and May Sweeps was going to introduce one new hero a week with the help of a few Hollywood heavyweights such as [...]

It should come as no surprise that leading up to November Sweeps, television is finally starting to kick it up a notch. Last night’s installment of HEROES was a return to form. Bringing back a surprisingly dangerous HRG, a predictably evil Sylar and an ending so jaw-dropping this TV Addict thought he had teleported back [...]

By Special Guest Contributor Seth C. A lot has been written about how lousy Heroes has been this season. I for one have been greatly disappointed, but I was always taught don’t criticize unless you offer a solution. So here is my solution. Get back to the basics. Give our Heroes a goal that is [...]

After last night’s fifth chapter of HEROES, two things are clear. One, this TV Addict misses VERONICA MARS more than ever. And two, the writers of HEROES have absolutely no idea what they’re doing. Sound harsh? Let me rephrase. The writers clearly have a plan, it’s simply not a very good one. Think back to [...]

One of the more interesting things HEROES star Zachary Quinto revealed to the TV Addict during our recent interview was the fact that you can thank him for the hiring of Kristen Bell. Says Quinto, only half-jokingly, “I take full responsibility for her inclusion in the show.” “Kristen and I have been friends for years. [...]

Can’t wait until Monday for your Kristen Bell/HEROES fix? theTVaddict.com understands. That’s why we’ve uploaded a scene from Monday’s episode online. Simply click play on the video above and be sure to stay tuned following the clip for an interview with Kristen Bell herself.

This afternoon, the TV Addict listened in as reporters from around the world peppered Kristen Bell and Tim Kring with questions for over an hour. Not surprisingly, Kristen Bell was absolutely awesome, answering every question — no matter how lame (yes, I’m talking to you US WEEKLY) — with patience, honesty and enthusiasm. Clearly, Bell [...]
