Our many thanks to Kristin of E! Online for the following Heroes spoilers and scoops. Among the items she informs us of are:

• Sources say Kristen Bell will not be a regular this season. However, she will appear in a recurring fashion, most likely for five more episodes.
• The only new regular is Cristine Rose as Mama Petrelli, who has a lot to do with event this season.
• Sylar is going to start working with H.R.G.

Interesting tidbits for sure. It's too bad Bell won't be on the series full-time. Seems like the show never used her to her full potential, doesn't it?

As for the Sylar and H.R.G. pairing: what could they be up to together?
