Heros meets Star Trek: TOS...again

I, along with millions of other people, fell in love with the NBC show Heroes last year. One of the coolest things was seeing George Takei (Commander Sulu from Star Trek) on the show - not to mention he played a really cool/creepy/mysterious character. Well, the Heroes casting director has done it again. This time they hired Nichelle Nichols (Lt. Uhura) to be a relative to heroes. I know lots of people had a creepy-sexual thing with her character from ST:TOS, but I always just liked the character - at least as much as you can like a semi-unimportant character. Anyway, it will be cool to see her on TV again. Even though I never saw her on TV when ST:TOS was originally aired - obviously.
