"Heroes" After a huge
debut season and a sophomore set that even creator Tim Kring called disappointing, the superpeople
-are-everywhere series recently returned for a hugely publicized relaunch -- and
discovered it had lost nearly 30 percent of its audience from last year. "That's
bad, that's really bad," Chef Ramsay would say to the cast. He'd also direct
specific comments toward stumbling stars Ali Larter ("You're one f------ cocky lady. I've had
enough!"), Milo Ventimiglia ("Hey, Mr. Inconsistent, wake up!")
and Kring himself. "That looks like a pile of s---," the Chef would say of the
lackluster Season 3 premiere. "You have the nerve to give me that, with the
critics out there?"
