Heroes Webisodes Planned for July Posted by The ODI at Thursday, April 03, 2008 (Comments: 0) Labels: Webisodes

So we just posted that the Heroes 2-hour Season 3 Premiere will be Sept. 15th, but if you think that is too far away and want your Heroes fix a little sooner!!

Well how about some webisodes!?

NBC also announced today that since the strike has been resolved that Heroes webisodes will be produced and be scheduled to air in July!!

Here are the details:

NBC is planning to air original webisodes of Chuck, The Office, and Heroes on the Internet. According to Variety, more NBC shows will then soon follow suite starting with 30 Rock.

NBC Digital Entertainment's Vivi Zigler stated, "We're incredibly lucky to have such collaborative writers, producers and actors to work with." The Office had previously run a successful series of webisodes that were dubbed The Accountants, featuring many of the cast members. But when residuals from web content became an issue, the series quit producing its original webisodes.

NBC's Ben Silverman stated, "The strike did resolve our issues with our chief creative partners. Now we have terms of business with them, we can do webisodes, integration. We're able to talk to them without the elephant in the room. We can create with them openly and freely."

The webisodes are currently being produced for web broadcasting this July.
