Heroes Season 3 Gets Two New Characters

April 10th, 2008

I know what you’re thinking: “Great, just what we need, two more recurring characters?” Hey, I share your dismay. It would seem that Season 2 was pretty much jammed with way too many characters to begin with, and now Kring and company plans to introduce yet two more recurring characters into the mix come Season 3? Apparently yes, according to Michael Ausiello over at TV Guide. But hey, at least this time we’ll get a politician who isn’t a total scumbag, as politicians in genre TV shows tend to be. This one is described by Ausiello as a “straight shooter”, as oppose to, you know, “totally scumbag politician”.

Two new recurring roles are being cast, both of which are slated to debut in the Season 3 premiere. “Joy” is in her early twenties and described as “quick on her feet — and adept at getting herself into and out of trouble.” Senator Robert Malden, meanwhile, is in his fifties and a political straight shooter.

I get the bad feeling Joy is going to be yet another major Heroes character ala Monica. Why another one? I don’t know. I’m still wondering how Kring is going to juggle the supposedly dozen or so new villains he plans to introduce in Season 3.

personally, i think it is the multitude of characters that makes heroes such a great show. the more characters, the more opportunities for plot twists...you already know that everyone is going to be somehow randomly connected to everyone else, so i think the addition of more new characters is really exciting!

JB

I don't get why everyone is so bothered by new characters. New characters mean new cool abilities! And if you're too simple to keep up with all of the characters and the plot, which I've had no trouble doing, then maybe you should be watching something more simple like cartoons? haha

that was just a sarcastic note....

Muscle mimicry is not the stupidest power....Monica wasnt soo bad.
She is going to be ST.Joan...so they wont kill her off soon.

Also - she can learn all this ninja stuff and other mortial arts (with arming) ...even Elle may lose!

I actually like Monica. I'm also hoping to see Elle return.

i love ELLE

all i have to say is more ELLE and get rid of that stupid stupid stupid (did i mention stupid) and useless and ackward monica character... i mean common wtf!! she has the stupidest ability (muscle mimic!! hahaha) and is just so out of place with the story, not to mention that no one cares about her........ thus, her character should be given the worst, most unsympathitic death as doing so would not hurt fan-feelings..... please indulge me SYLAR!!

am i alone in feeling this way??!

JB

If no one cares about her why does Niki nearly kill herself helping her escape a burning building? She will have a more serious more involved role in season 3 Im sure of it. However I do agree that it would be awesome (and evil) if Sylar got hold of her power =D

Michael

Calm Down

Clair"s biological mom has a awsome power, will Clair develope it or not? If not her mom should get a re occuring role as someone to watch over her daughter, and no one know it was her could add some drama!

Okay, a recurring character is not a regular. Our Heroes need new people to bounch off of. Eden, Ted, Thompson, Linderman all recurring. Otherwise, they will just be sitting in a room talking to each other. Take a breath it will all be alright.

can u tell me if u do repeats of heroes or not thanku.

Farah Hussain

I love the show it's great i couldn't wait 4 series 2 to come on.

Bob

I think that you are doing great with this season.

I like the idea of Eliza Dushku. I loved her in Tru Calling. I wish that hadn't gone off. It probably won't happen. But I think she could do it. As for Buffy...She was played out for toooo many seasons on a VAMPIRE show as a highschool/college student. It wouldn't work at all. Eliza was in a more realistic environment..with a job and more real life events. And she wasn't on as the same character for years. Besides somebody has to do it and better somebody you know and like as to some nobody we could care less to see. Because most of the characters on the show we know from other shows. Peter/Milo was on the Gilmore Girls! Don't get me wrong I loved him on there. But if he can go from that to this and be great...why not Eliza!

NOT DUSHKU PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

or they should add Buffy and vimpires to make it fully stuffed with these girls from another shows....how about Xena? girls from X-men? Hanna Montana?

(just my opinion)

I'm excited for two new heroes....it means u can explore the old characters who have well discovered their powers but see the reactions of the new characters who are just discovering their powers. As much as I love the old character the inclusion of new ones is always exciting to see how they will intertwine with the other characters
