I must be getting senile because I don't remember anything like that.
No senility yet, just slightly confusing writing. Samual hasn't appeared in the show yet.

Heroes Season 4 Trailer & Robert Knepper Becomes a Regular
. . .We have two great Heroes items today, including news that Robert Knepper has been signed on for the remainder of season 4 as a series regular, and also the season 4 trailer which is very similar to the one shown at Comic Con.
First, Robert Knepper was originally signed for only six episodes, has been cast as a regular, giving Heroes a new baddie to fear. Zachary Quinto (Sylar) also started out on Heroes in a recurring role and was eventually upgraded to series regular. Based on the footage shown so far this was definitely a good decision as Knepper is awesome and the scenes they've shown with him so far are incredible. He has a villaneous presence that can only be rivaled by Sylar himself.

Season four is the upcoming season (Fourth season, fifth "chapter" ), but the way they write about Knepper's change in status makes it sound like he's appeared in the show already. They're just saying that he was originally signed for the upcoming season as a recurring character, but that status has been upgraded to that of a regular ongoing character.
Heroes always has and continues to do a fine job entertaining me. With "Heroes" and "House", and then "24" joining the party in January, Monday has become my favorite TV day of the week.
The X-Files was great, but to a degree disappointing because they really fumbled very badly, not just a key element of the show, not just the main point of the core plot, they mishandled what was the very soul of the show's tentpole character. Still a great show, maybe my favorite show so far, but they were flirting with TV perfection and let the test tube with the critical ingredient slip through their fingers and go crashing to the floor.
