Heroes Webisodes to Start in Mid-July
Can’t wait until September for fresh Heroes episodes? Lucky for you, then, that you won’t have to wait that long. Kind of. While yes, the Season 3 premiere of Heroes won’t show up until September, 2008, there will be new Heroes content to digest starting in mid-July, when NBC announced that the first episode of their all-new Heroes webisodes (that is, episodes made exclusively for online viewing at the NBC site) will premiere. The first episode will be called “Manhunt”, and will introduce a new villain that will lead into the Season 3 premiere.
From NBC’s press release:
In the first installment of the “Heroes” Webisodes, titled “Manhunt,” users will uncover a new villain along with their motive. The fast-paced, twist-filled web series premieres mid-July on NBC.com and sets fans on a path that leads to the explosive premiere of the third season of “Heroes.”
So mark it on your calendars. Mid-July 2008 gives us fresh Heroes content. It may not be a full-length episode, but it’s better than nothing.
