Tim Kring has been around TV a long time, with writing credits that go back as far as Knight Rider and Misfits of Science. He's probably better known for his more recent work though, writing for Providence, and creating Crossing Jordan and Heroes. It looks like Heroes could very well be his most successful show to date. With NBC already picking it up for a full season and solid ratings each week, it is one of just a few new shows that could be deemed a hit.
Kring has recently done a couple of interviews that shed a little light on just what they are up to with the show. There are some small spoilers, just so you know. The thing that sticks out to me is what he says when asked about how long the show will go, and what the overall plan is. "At the end of season one, there will be a resolution to the pilot's prophecy." That's good to know. You can find the interviews at TV addict, and TV Guide. Heroes airs tonight at 9, on NBC.

One of the problems that I have with lost is that there is no resolution. In season 3 I feel like a know very little of what is really taking place. For that reason I tune out for months at a time.
I'm happy to hear that "Heroes" will provide a resolution to the nuclear threat. I would hate for the same month to go on continuously for 3 or four years.
Way to go Heroes!
