ATTN Heroes and Lost nerds: To commemorate the season finales of both shows this week, Wizard Entertainment has an interview with Heroes creator Tim Kring and Lost creator Damon Lindelof. They've been friends ever since they were both writing for... Crossing Jordan??? Strange but true. Kring acknowledges the debt he owes to Lost, which proved that long-form storytelling is viable on TV what suckers the audience can be. If you ask me, the supe-opera has far surpassed its older brother. Oh, you didn't ask me? Sorry.

Hey, here's a stupid joke I just thought up:

"Do you like Tim Kring?"
"I dunno, I've never timkr'ed!"

P.S. Kring tells the LA Times: "...no secret is so precious that you can't deliver the answer to it. We learned from the mistakes of audiences being frustrated with other shows. When you hold onto a secret for so long, almost any answer you give won't be satisfying. You get yourself in this endless loop of needing to hold onto the answer because you know you'll disappoint." Hint: The "other shows" he's referring to aren't Hanna Montana and According to Jim.
