Heroes (TV series)/Trivia


 * Fan Nickname: There are several, but highlights include:
 * Mystery Sock for Isaac
 * Fryingmon for Nathan (based on Hiro's pronunciation of "Mister I-saac" and "Flying Man")
 * Momo, "Moe" (as in the Stooge), or Pretty-But-Stupid for Mohinder and/or Peter.
 * Mohindrance and D'ohhinder, for the many, many times Mohinder steals the Idiot Ball.
 * Rafiki for Usutu, the man Matt meets in the African plains.
 * Pac-Man for Matt (based on Usutu's pronunciation of Parkman).
 * HRG for Mr. Bennet (because of the glasses).
 * This was a canon nickname at least amongst the cast as Coleman referred to his character as such a couple times
 * Senator Bambi for Nathan Petrelli. (It's the eyes.)
 * President Worf or Worfbama for the President, because he's played by Michael Dorn and he's kinda sorta an Expy of Obama
 * Pasbeard for the infamous, butt-ugly Beard of Sorrow sported by Nathan Petrelli (Adrian Pasdar) in the beginning of Season 2.
 * Nuke, for Luke the microwave boy.
 * Hiro ando Ando (bilingual pun)
 * Hey Its That Guy: Veronica Mars has lightning powers.
 * And Weevil can really scream
 * Kairi can now never get hurt.
 * Clear Rivers can now evade death thanks to her endless supply of siblings.
 * Captain Sheridan appoints Nathan to the Senate.
 * Quinn Fabray as a cheerleader
 * How often to do you see a show with Franklin and another Franklin
 * The Ninth Doctor can now turn invisible.
 * Alison DiLaurentis as Lydia's daughter who makes things blow up.
 * Andie Star is the tattooed lady, and Darth Maul is the knife-thrower.
 * Hey Its That Voice: Anakin Skywalker as a quarterback who accidentally kills Claire.
 * What Could Have Been: The obvious example is how volume 3 was cut short, with plot threads obvious to be related to the main story ending up going nowhere. A bigger example would be the entire style of the series: The original intent was to have a revolving cast, with most characters not returning in future seasons. What could have been, indeed, if after season 2 we didn't have to deal with most of the extended Petrelli family?
 * Also, the Aborted Arcs caused by the writer's strike, which led to the Seasonal Rot which the series never fully recovered from.
