Tim Kring the creator of the hit TV show 'Heroes' must seriously love Star Trek. Not only did he cast George "Sulu" Takei to portray Hiro's father during Season 1, now he's cast Nichelle “Lt. Uhura” Nichols for the upcoming season 2.
Nichols will play Nana, the New Orleans-based grandmother of Monica (who is a new hero this year). Word has it that she will be a main character, but on this show, that doesn't mean you'll be on it very long.
New season begins September 24th, and I can't recommend this show any higher than I have.
