NBC, in an effort to hold off hatred of its network for the fact that it will not show any more episodes of its hit show Heroes until April 23, wisely chose tonight to offer a glimpse into Spider-Man 3, which hits theatres this summer. Clicking here will take you to 7 minutes of “exclusive” video that only NBC.com will have for you to view, and of course, which I’m about to finally view now.
Of course, I can’t complain too much, as NBC has done what no one had done before - that is, hold me off from flipping over to CBS to watch CSI: Miami at 10pm, or at least watch 24 off the TiVo - by putting The Black Donnellys on, a show that I’m definitely digging.
Oh, and while I’m at it with this pseudo-trashing of NBC, did anyone else except me notice that really great SEO technique on the home page, nbc.com, noting that the site is the “TV Network for Primetime, Daytime, and Late Night Television Shows.” Umm, yeah, like there aren’t some others that happen to cover that same slice and dice?

What is this junk about no new episodes till April 23? At least last fall there was the courtesy to let us know this prior to the “last episode of the year.” In the imortal words of Phil Anselmo, “I’m fucking hostile!”

I thought it was interesting how, in Chicago, Heroes ended and then a promo voice-over ran for the local news which said you could watch it “Right after The Black Donnellys.” Nice try to encourage people to stick around for the entire night’s worth of programming.

So what is it about this show that has everyone saying the same things?
