HEROES Goes Green For November Sweeps

I wonder how HEROES is going to add an environmental impact into one of its episodes? I just read from NBC that HEROES will have a special “green-themed” episode around November 15-22. That week’s episode is 4.10 “Brother’s Keeper”, so that might be a clue about the episode’s slant for that week. Maybe it’s about keeping the earth healthy, and we’re all in this together, or something to that effect.

Other NBC shows with a green theme are "The Biggest Loser," "Mercy," "Trauma," "Law & Order: SVU," "Parks and Recreation," "The Office," "30 Rock" and "Law & Order." NBC also released that its shows will have holiday themes this winter. Hmm, the episode before holiday breaks is aptly titled 4.11 “Thanksgiving”  airing on November 23. Guest star Elizabeth Rohm (“Law & Order veteran) will come back for this episode to play her role as a former partner of H.R.G. We will first see Rohm in the coming episode “Once Upon A Time in Texas”.

Then in December, HEROES goes for a month-long break before returning on January 2010 with 4.12 “Upon This Rock” (that might have a religious meaning /holiday theme to it as well).

I wonder if having special episodes like these will have particular appeal to viewers? What do you say?
