From Kevin Himself at SilentBobSpeaks.com
Yes – I’m directing an episode (maybe the first episode) of the “Heroes” spinoff “Heroes: Origins”. It’s gonna be fun, to say the least. Big thanks to Tim Kring and Jeph Loeb for not only inviting me to play in their sandbox, but to pop in on their panel with the news. I’m a huge fan of the show, and now to be a part of it is pretty amazing.

Big Love, Big Trouble

Rhonda Volmer started out as a fairly innocuous character in season 1 of Big Love. She seemed to be there only to remind us of the tragedy of polygamy, and to further cement Roman's evilness. Now, Rhonda has become a major player in the series. She seems to be responsible for most of the Henrickson's problems; Barb's exposure, increased tensions between Roman and Bill, and now even further scrutiny of the family.

Uncle Eddie (Brian Kerwin) is a new significant character this season. He was introduced to us as Lois' brother who has been helping her with the laundromat. It would be unlikely that he was brought in, with such a significant presence, without figuring heavily in this seasons arc.

This week, Big Love steps up the complications for the Henrickson family. Allot happened this week. I've watched it twice, and I still don't think I got everything. The synopsis at HBO.com gives us:
This week, Bill's anxieties over his upcoming testimony in Joey's case are compounded by the presence of Rhonda, who threatens to blackmail Nicki into letting her stay with the Henricksons. Suspicious that Nicki and Bill orchestrated Rhonda's disappearance, Roman sends a couple of Juniper Creek cops to the Henricksons with a warrant, but Don helps ferry the girl to safety.
