Tim Kring is a genius. Masi Oka is a rockstar. Ali Larter and Hayden Panittiere are smoking hot. NBC's new 表示する ヒーローズ is the talk of the town and for good reason. But there's one very big and painful problem with the 表示する that could only get worse with its popularity...selling out to big corporate ad dollars.
Never before have I seen such blatant product placement in a テレビ 表示する until the 日 I saw the pilot episode. Every time I see that Nissan Versa または the mention of it on the 表示する makes me cringe. The 林檎, アップル iPod video was a little less blatant, but irritating nonetheless. Product placement has been creeping up on us for years now, but recently it has become もっと見る and もっと見る prolific finding its way from film to テレビ and now even into video games (Did あなた see that giant Coca-Cola billboard go によって when あなた were gunning down grannies in Grand Theft Auto? Sneaky bastards). Sometimes it's very subtle without us knowing that the companies have subliminally programmed us to grab a コーラ from the fridge at the 7-Eleven instead of a Pepsi. But othertimes, it's a bit too in your face, in this case having Hiro and Ando mentioning the Nissan Versa in conversation and praise and constant shots of the little blue car. It obviously adds nothing to the 表示する but a disgusting plug for a new car from Nissan. That ends up leaving a bad taste in everyone's mouth including the people who might buy 発言しました Nissan Versa. It looks like Nissan has paid the folks over at Desperate Housewives a pretty penny as well, having their emblem 表示する up twice in the last episode. So much for artistic integrity.
I'm hoping that they just had deals and sponsorships signed for the first season and that they will end there. The last thing I would want to see is Nathan Petrelli flying in a pair of Dockers khakis. または Matt Parkman soothing his headaches from all the voices from mind-reading with Advil. または Hiro Nakamura checking his Rolex watch when he stops time. We already saw our hero James Bond sellout to BMW and Ericsson. Please Mr. Kring, I implore あなた for the 愛 of all that is creative and genuine, don't let these ヒーローズ become another billboard.

Our plan is to have fans, as many as we can get, to mail the studio head of their choice a lovely, but very inexpensive, Roller スケート charm. A "Cheap Skate" for a bunch of Cheap Skates.
