NipTuck star headed to Heroes and is Zach Gay?(Spoilers)

E! Kristin's Blog Exclusive Spoilers

From Noemi: Heroes is the best thing ever in prime-time TV! Any new gossip on the next season? What happened to Sylar?
Forget Sylar! I scored some exclusive, kick-ass casting scoop! Wheee! Sources close to Heroes tell me that Jessalyn Gilsig (Nip/Tuck, Boston Public) has been cast as a pivotal character directly connected to one of the Heroes we already know and love. If you put on your super-sleuthing thinking caps, I bet you'll figure this one out all on your own. (And pssst...just in case your cap isn't working, I'll reveal Jessalyn's character to you in the spoiler section. Shhh!)

From Bill: Hi, Kristin. I came across this post on afterelton.com and thought that you'd find it interesting. It's about how NBC and everyone are now taking a stance that Zach on Heroes is not gay.
Yes, many of you have asked me about this. I have it on good authority that Zach was most definitely supposed to be gay when the series began, and we did see shades of that in earlier episodes, such as when he's teased for getting an erection in the locker room, and when he asks Claire if she's planning to "come out" to her parents. Obviously, that plan has changed. I can't tell you why, but I can tell you that originally, Zach would not have been making googly eyes at Claire.

Terrormaster, those spoiler colors aren't working. I don't mind it, but there are probably some people here who don't want to see major spoilers.

Jessalyn Gilsig is going to play Claire's biological mother.

Holy crap!! :shock:.....Wait. I thought HRG said that Claire's bio-mom died....

I guess we can't find out for sure until later. More definite spoilers will probably be posted sometime soon.

EDIT: Hey look, I'm a "Re-Imagined Superhero" now.

Yeah, for some reason they didn't work on the initial posting. I keep forgetting to put the # in the color codes. Brain keeps switching between STANDARD color markup up the and the #-less color markup when tweaking out a myspace page (their filter strips all #'s out of any message content so I've gotten in a bad habit if leaving em out).

Maybe Sam, SOG, or Tob can get the spoiler tag mod in for phpBB.

Sam tried but to no avail. I know in the new site there is a better spoiler code.

It isn't as if Ms. Gilsig's character would be difficult to guess. I had already done so.

Super Ordinary Guy · 12-13-2006, 01:17 PM

^ Not really. I thought according to HRG, trying to capture Claire's bio-mom resulted in her untimely death. This then enabled HRG and his wife to "adopt" Claire.

Mathsorcerer · 12-13-2006, 01:19 PM

HRG has forgotten one of the five most important rules when dealing with metahumans: if you don't see the corpse and bury it yourself, then that person is not dead.
