NBC Admits to Being Behind Zeroes Parodies
On February 2007 someone posted a Heroes parody called Zeroes on YouTube, about normal people who can do, well, kinda stupid things with their bodies. (One guy can kick himself in the back of the head, and another girl can write with her foot.) Since Heroes was being parodied by just about everyone on YouTube, most people thought this was just another one. As it turned out, Zeroes was a clever NBC marketing stunt, the network’s PR guy Vince Manze admitted to Variety just recently. Nevertheless, they’re still pretty funny, especially the first one. You can see them both below.
