Topic: The Rewatch Podcast is gearing up to take on heroes... Heroes, that is

Hey all,

We are getting setup to start our rewatch of Heroes, including the comics that were released alongside the show, AND the webisodes... IF we can find them.

It seems only three of the webisodes of the original show were put out on the box sets (season 3) and one is complete on youtube. The other three are nowhere to be found on officially released media, and on youtube and other video sites, we can find parts of the other three webisodes, but not all of the parts.

We are looking for Destiny, Slow Burn and then Damen Peak. SB has 10 parts, Destiny has 4, while Damen has 3.

If you have any clue where to find these, let us know!

Thanks,
Tom

The video quality on these is less than ideal:

You’re the man, man! Thanks for those! Yeah we’re finding most of the webisodes we find are very low quality.

Still surprised they didn’t put all of these on the box sets. Such a weird decision. It’s like they chose every other webisode and skipped the others.

I have a few theories.

My first theory is that some of these tie-in web serieses had the cast/crew paid according to contracts that were just to see the web shows streamed on the HEROES website, but the legal department may have chosen not to include language for these webcast productions to be included on home media. Maybe in some cases, the studio sought to save a little money by not coming to terms on residuals for home video release with the expectation that the web shows would just stay online for as long as they were profitable.

My second theory is that the marketing sponsorships that funded these web shows saw home video rights retained by the sponsor and considered part of the marketing campaign for whatever product they were using some of these webisodes to sell with pre-and-post show ads.

My third theory is that somebody accidentally ran over one of the web-series storing hard drives with a golf cart.
