As NBC's Heroes closes the book on its third season and the "Fugitives" volume (Monday at 9 pm/ET), Sen. Nathan Petrelli is on a mission to atone for what he's done: namely, making his friends fugitives in the first place. There's just one problem — the nearly invincible and now shape-shifting-enabled Sylar is standing in his way.
To make matters worse, Sylar is using his ability to live inside the skin of Nathan — all part of an effort to get close to the president and eventually impersonate him as well. But Pasdar said Nathan is fighting against himself just as much as he is Sylar
"In the last four episodes, [Nathan's] been realizing what he's done, what the overreaching ramifications his actions may have," Adrian Pasdar tells TVGuide.com. "There's been a quiet backing up into what the whole thing is really about, and a getting closer to seeing a redeeming light.

At least one Heroes cast member thinks the news that NBC is cutting the show's fourth-season episode count is a good thing.
Adrian Pasdar, who plays flying U.S. Senator Nathan Petrelli, said after working on such a long production schedule this season, shooting only 18 episodes will be "a relief."
"If things start shifting around, they can always add more at the end, but doing 25 episodes this year was nearly 11 months of work," he said. "We love the work, but in order for the quality to be maintained, you can't just keep grinding it out.

Question: Is it just me or do Mad Men's Jon Hamm and Heroes' Adrian Pasdar look like they could be related? Pasdar could play a relative of Dick Whitman's or maybe a nemesis from his past. And can't you just see him slipping smoothly into the '60s setting? Also, I've just recently started watching Mad Men and I can see the allure, but all the "isms" (take your pick: racism, sexism, anti-Semitism, etc.) are getting to me. And the smoking! Yes, people smoked back then, we get it. Hopefully, they'll dial that down a bit. And I think I have my Halloween costume for this year: Joan. Of course, I will need the biggest padded bra, ever.
Answer: Oh, how cool would it be if Mad Men's fashion became a hot Halloween trend. Best dressed trick-or-treaters/partygoers ever. (And speaking of bras, how painful did it look when Joan rubbed her shoulder where the bra strap was digging in after her latest bad day at the office?) Love the Hamm-Pasdar "separated at birth" comparison. He would be perfect for
