Heroes
Mon. 1/22 at 9pm ET on NBC
"Heroes" returns with a new hero (Christopher Eccleston) arriving on the scene. (Watch a clip from the returning episode here.) "He's been living with his invisibility for many years and has come to grips with it, so he'll give us a different view into this hero world," Producer Tim Kring explained to TVGuide.com. "He's big, imposing and charismatic, and will become a mentor to Peter -- albeit a tough, reluctant and stern one. He'll help Peter learn to use and control his powers." Speaking of Peter, who has been in a coma for two weeks, will his premonition of the future be explained? Is he the bomb that will destroy the world? Elsewhere, Hiro and Ando go on a quest to find the samurai sword they saw in Isaac's painting. Will our favorite time jumper run into a T-Rex along the way? Claire embarks on a journey of her own when she searches for her biological parents. Could they be heroes too? Most importantly, we want to know who?s on that list and why HRG wants it so bad
