Tim Kring apologizes for calling fans 'dips***s'

Nup_107930_0001 "Heroes" creator Tim Kring apologized for calling his fans "saps and dipshits"  at the recent Screenwriting Expo panel for not using DVRs.

For those who have not followed this story in the blogsphere, it's been more entertaining than "Heroes" this season, with the NBC show's fans cast as offended victims and its creator in the role as the heartless villain (hey, he's got the goatee).

Here's Kring's original quote, first reported by IGN:

[Serialized storytelling is] a very flawed way of telling stories on network television right now, because of the advent of the DVR and online streaming. The engine that drove [serialized TV] was you had to be in front of the TV [when it aired]. Now you can watch it when you want, where you want, how you want to watch it, and almost all of those ways are superior to watching it on air. So [watching it] on air is related to the saps and the dips**s who can't figure out how to watch it in a superior way.

Time's blog did a detailed breakdown that enumerated all the ways this was a bone-headed statement, so I won't rehash them here. Basically, after weeks of "Heroes" losing ratings, a lingering hardcore group of viewers have stuck with the show, fans who are willing and able to keep track of "Heroes" confusing array of intertwining plots. The last thing NBC wants is for that remaining audience to feel insulted for watching the program live -- the primary manner tracked by advertisers.

Now an apologetic message from Kring (below) is making the rounds. NBC verifies its legitimacy but otherwise has no comment:

"I need to strongly apologize for the slightly mangled quote of mine that is making it’s way around the internet. It was made while trying to explain the rise in DVR and online audience for the show. I was making the point that these platforms now offer a superior way to watch the show (without commercials, with extra content, commentary, at the audience’s convenience, etc.) ... It was a boneheaded attempt at being 'cute' and making a point. Instead, it turned out to be just plain insulting and stupid."

One wishes to avoid piling on. Clearly Kring regrets what he said and anybody can slip up on a panel. But the matter has been lousy timing for the show, which has behaved in the ratings like a troubled freshman series rather than a third-year series. Ratings drain is common in returning programs, but the relentless plummet suffered by "Heroes" is unusual. The past few weeks seem to have bottomed out. If not, "Heroes" could go from NBC's top-rated drama to on-the-bubble for renewal by the end of the season.

On the heels of this news, Salon published a particularly brutal review, saying this about "Heroes" writing:

"Every other scene seems to boil down to the same arbitrary dramatic conflict: Two characters argue over what should happen next, even if they were assigned the exact opposite stances in the previous episode. It's just like debate club, only a little less interesting ... all any of these characters do is walk around, declaring their interest in saving the world over and over again."

Full Kring letter:

I need to strongly apologize for the slightly mangled quote of mine that is making it’s way around the internet. It was made while trying to explain the rise in DVR and online audience for the show. I was making the point that these platforms now offer a superior way to watch the show (without commercials, with extra content, commentary, at the audience’s convenience, etc.) And went on to say how it’s getting to the point where “watching the show on the air is relegated to the poor saps and dip****s who can’t figure out how to program their DVR’s”. (Or something close to that) It was a boneheaded attempt at being “cute” and making a point. Instead, it turned out to be just plain insulting and stupid. I know now how it sounded, but I truly never meant to suggest anything negative about our audience. No one cares more about the fans than we do at Heroes, and no one appreciates them more than me. We are grateful for whatever way people are finding our show. Now more than ever.

I want to take this opportunity to say that I’m very sorry for this careless, lame remark. The best way to make it up to you is to live up to my promise that the upcoming episodes of the show are fantastic. I think you’ll agree we’re really on a roll and we couldn’t be more excited about the last four episodes of “Villains” and the upcoming volume, “Fugitives”, which we feel will be a huge hit with the audience.

Thank you for hearing me out.

Humbly

Tim Kring

What this apology doesn't do is say "Sorry" for Kring admitting to lazy writing and a collapse of the creative processes of the show. If people who watch the show remember, for example, that there is an Irish girl stuck somewhere in the future that Peter should be giving a damn about, then the showrunner and the writers should make sure to address that and not ignore it. Otherwise why did they go to the trouble of writing her in the first place? This once fine show has become formulaic, tired and lazy - and the blame can be laid squarely at Kring's feet.

The lawsuit that is now in a NYC Appellate court against Tim Kring is to blame for the confusing story lines on Heroes.( GOOGLE THE NAMES ENJAI EELE AND AMNAU EELE, to read more about this lawsuit).
why? Because tim Kring can no longer steal those NYC artists work anymore thanks to this lawsuit.

tim Kring is thief and I hope this lawsuit will expose this dummy for the hack writer that he is.
tim Kring is still employed at NBC because he's white. If he was a black man, NBC would fire him and have him arrested.
to insult the fans, is very lame and reckless.
tim Kring's apology means nothing, the fans mean nothing to him.
What kind of CEO is Jeff Zucker?
Where are the NBC shareholders in all of this?

They are just trying to keep the black man down... that is definitely what this is ALL about. Good god.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I just deleted my Heros "season pass".

He should be commended for his honesty

i'm a few weeks back, but i'm just going to let it go. kring is a homo.

The only thing I get when I Google "ENJAI EELE" is STYLES spamming the hell out of every blog that mentions Heroes.

I don't understand his point that DVRs and streaming take away from serialized storytelling. If anything, it should help. With DVRs and streaming you can watch episodes back to back in sequence and understand all the subtlties occurring in each episode. I never got into Lost or Heroes on TV because I didn't watch them from the outset and would regularly miss episodes, so I never knew what was happening, and stopped watching. But then I started watching them online, from the first episodes, and now am hooked. What kills serialized TV is forcing people to only watch it at one time and only on TV. People are busy and don't have a lot of time, so let them watch when they can. Also, with online viewing you don't need to have the intro to each episode that is supposed to get everyone up to speed on what has been going on before the current episode. That frees up another minute in the show for some actual new developments.

To STYLES up above....the only thing I get when I search ENJAI EELE on google is a whole bunch of blogs/articles where you're trolling around posting the same $hit everywhere online. If you're going to tell people to look up this info, how about directly linking URLs instead of saying all of the information you have is true. Are you Enjai Eele or know them personally? The way you talk on every msg board out there seems to suggest that you are. Just my .02

To Styles: When I googled those names, primarily what I find is you plastering all over the internet in response to any Heroes criticism that people should google these names to see what a "thief" Kring is. When I finally DID weed through all that enough to find the actual court case, a quick five-minute readthrough showed the case was dismissed as being frivolous, having no basis in fact, and that the evidence clearly showed that the character of Isaac Mendez bore virtually NO resemblence to characters created by the plantiffs. Please stop. Seriously. Find something else better to do with your time. Like watching paint dry.

Re: Heroes, I'm hopeful that they can turn the show around. The first season was fantastic, the second, not so much, and now the show is just boring. I find myself saying after each episode "So, basically, nothing really HAPPENED. Everyone just stood around and TALKED about doing things." Granted the show's never been all that action-packed, but it used to be character-driven, and now it's just driven by hope that the writers will figure out what they're doing again one day.

I don't need to support anyone that accidently called me a dipshit!

I've been DVRing this entire season so that maybe I can sit down some long boring weekend and try to piece it all together. Maybe some day when I have the flu and nothing better to do... It's a little silly that writers actually want us to watch shows this way. I'd say Heroes lost me after the second episode this season, but that wouldn't be entirely true; Kring, you lost me when you killed off too many interesting characters. You want to save the show? Bring back everyone from Season 1!

Am I really the only person that completely agrees with him? Watching real-time broadcast of anything except something like sports or a live speech doesnt make much sense. Sure, he picked his words poorly, but I don't see why anyone disagrees.

I don't care about any of this. I like show, and will keep watching it. I watch it on nbc's site. I kinda agree with Tim. I am actually considering ditching my cable subscription and just hooking up a mac to the TV. Most of the stuff I watch is available on the broadcaster's website, anyway - MSNBC, Comedycentral, southparkstudios,nbc,cnn.

Maybe as creator of Heroes, Krung, is feeling like he has lost control of the series.
Perhaps he should not have allowed streaming online, BUT when people need to get up to speed, at least they need not wait and catch the re-runs all in a row.
It is confusing and streaming allows re-watch or catch-up otherwise viewer/fan would throw up his hands and watch something NOT serialized. My dad loathed "continued"...without a "Josim Roswell" update...we are, alas, in the dark with the muchrooms and the aroma is not good. How does "glasses" keep from kicking villan's head "for a field goal". Even carrying someone, I would make the extra effort.

Who cares what any of you think?
It doesn't change the fact that:
tim Kring is a thief.
Heroes ratings are in the toilet.
you knew nothing of the lawsuit until it was posted on this site.
and that this lawsuit will bring the truth out about Tim Kring to the world.
and that most of you posting anything positive on this site about tim Kring work for NBC.
the Twins don't have to post anything on line, they have FANS WORLD WIDE that love and respect them and are more than happy to post the TRUTH?

What else would you expect from the AMERICAN JUSTICE SYSTEM that has a history of dishing out in-justice to black people? NBC admitted to access and copying. NBC also admitted that the infringed character was original, copyrighted and fully developed.
In the appellate court admission like this can cause NBC and Tim Kring massive damage
Go online and READ the paper work filed by NBC in the appellate court before you post old news and stupid comments.
If any of you knew anything about law, you would know that the judge violated civil procedure in this lawsuit, the judge issued a summary judgement without notice, which is a total violation of civil procedure.
To all the fools on this site, don't post unless you have actual facts and details that can inform the few posters on this site in an intelligent way.
A movement was started 2 years ago by over 700 people world wide to post all the comments that you now see online, and we will all continue to post until the world knows just how much of a scumbag Tim Kring really is.
What are you doing to make the world a better place ?
do you care about how many people will lose their jobs in production because of this moron? What about the actors on the show? those actors are stuck on a sinking ship and their careers are connected to a dud.
Posting negative comments on this site about shit you just heard about 2 minutes ago will not make this lawsuit go away or change the fact that TIM KRING IS A THIEF AND A HACK WRITER.
Google JOANN VARA , she works in the tv and film industry and she or he had a lot to say about this lawsuit.
But Hey, maybe Joann is The Twins, right?
No wonder Tim Kring called your stupid asses "SAPS AND DIP-SHITS", you'd have to be to think The Twins would waste any time posting shit on these lame ass sites or that Tim Kring really created Heroes..

I have responses to a couple comment left so far:

“there is an Irish girl stuck somewhere in the future that Peter should be giving a damn about”

She is in a future that doesn’t exist anymore because the virus in season 2 never spread. Is she supposed to magically re-appear in present time? I assume based on “Back to the future” that she simply disappeared and no longer exists in the universe. If Peter had a picture of the both of them together, Peter would be the only person in the picture now. But who really knows!

GOOGLE THE NAMES ENJAI EELE AND AMNAU EELE, to read more about this lawsuit).why? Because tim Kring can no longer steal those NYC artists work anymore thanks to this lawsuit.
Guess what, in America you can take some one else’s ideas if you change or add on to them in any way. The only way he will get in trouble for stealing ideas is if Isaac is exactly the same as the artist’s character. The artists made a 15 min short story about an artist who predicted 9/11. While this sounds similar to heroes there are major differences. Isaac painted about other Heroes and a Bomb that destroyed all of New York (not just 1 building). Also a bomb and a plane are 2 different things. It is called expanding an idea or a spin off. While I don't think he is as gifted of a writer as I once thought after reading the lawsuit article, I don't think he did anything wrong.

tim Kring is still employed at NBC because he's white. If he was a black man, NBC would fire him and have him arrested. –

Only black people play the race card. Let me guess what color you are……… It doesn’t matter what color Kring is, his show brought great revenue to NBC for 2 seasons. NBC will try and milk it for all it’s worth and then get rid of him if the money stops rolling in. Also the show always seems to explain everything in the last 2-3 episodes of the season. Why don’t people wait to see if it all makes sense once the whole story is told instead of bashing him for being a lazy, worthless writer half way through this season.

All he was trying to do was illustrate that DVR and online viewers are not included in the ratings. The current rating system is a joke anyways. They rely on a random sample of data to calculate whether or not advertisers will want to pay premium prices for that time slot. It would be better to monitor what every person in the world is watching at a certain time but that would violate our right to privacy, hence we are stuck with an imperfect system.

ABC is getting rid of Pushing Daisies and Eli Stone, but keeping Dancing with the stars and every other reality show. Who actually watches reality TV? It is horrible television and it is ruining our society. People now think it is OK to cheat, steal, and conspire (survivor, big brother) if it means you win money or fame.

Family Guy is a perfect example of how ratings do not work. Why was it brought back after 5 years if it wasn’t getting good rating? Because people did watch it they just weren’t Nielsen families.

Huh. Kring is an asshole.

It'd sure be a lot easier to take if he had one talented bone in his body and didn't feel the need to riff off the clearly superior X-Men in order to pay for his lambos. He's only cranky because he's nervous about being caught as an "incompetent", roundly satisfying the theory that all very successful people ultimately have about themselves---that in truth they are hacks and impostors.

Except kring is right.

Hey BOWEL MOVEMENT TO PUT TIM KRING IN JAIL...

I love it when morons post things like this...
"To all the fools on this site, don't post unless you have actual facts and details that can inform the few posters on this site in an intelligent way.
A movement was started 2 years ago by over 700 people world wide to post all the comments that you now see online, and we will all continue to post until the world knows just how much of a scumbag Tim Kring really is."

You call people out for posting things with no facts and then your VERY NEXT sentence throws out a bunch of unsupported facts. What movement started 2 years ago? Facts?? 700 people? Facts?? Tim Kring is a scumbag? Facts?? You sound like a jaded ex-lover of his. Get over it dude.

STYLES, it is good that you bring up the color issue because I swear you are a black man without an argument to save your life. Can't the african-american race in this country f*ckin quit already? I mean shit, we elected a black president (who is a good choice) - get over the race issue - seems everyone else has but the black population. What would happen if we named a channel 'White Entertainment Television'? Do you think there would be a lawsuit by the NAACP? I guarantee it. The only reason a black man would be arrested in your example is if he/she brought the 'gat' they are surley 'packin' into work the final day they were there. I am thankful I have access to such terms as 'gat' and 'packin' due to the impeccibly vocal inner city youth made up of mostly african americans.

Bottom line - if black folk would quit thinking everyone owed them something, and that white people still want to lynch them - racism might actually disappear sometime in the next century. I doubt it though.

for your information, I am a white woman born in london and I joined the movement to put Tim Kring in jail after I saw The Twins art and story on exhibit here in London.
TIM STOLE THERE WORK AND IT WAS MADE CLEAR TO ALL OF LONDON AT THIS SHOW.
Have any of you seen The Twins work?
See it, the way we have in london and you'll see what NBC and everyone already know: TIM KRING STOLE THOSE ARTISTS WORK.
Don't take my word for it, GO SEE THE WORK.
The Twins family art is part of the permanent collection at the Met Museum in NYC, it;s called LUBA DIVINATION ART and when you google or see this art you will see where Tim Kring got the "Usutu" character from.
Remember: A African artist that can paint the future in real life and fiction is suing tim Kring, now ,,, would any of you add an african artist to your show if you were being sued by one in real life?
What a moron, right?
that was the same question posed to NBC in the courts a few weeks ago, and that's why "Usutu" was killed off in such a heinous way.
The NYC courts told NBC that "Usutu" had to come off the show.
google it, all this info is online.
Are there any writers on this site that understand this info?
white people in America played the race card first, that's why having a half black president is a historical moment in America, Now what does it say about playing the race card if it took 43 presidents to get a half black one?
And even with a white mother, look how much trouble white americans gave him to become that 44th president.
tim ripped off x-men, the Twins, The watchmen, The Fly etc... that's what hack writers do.

oprah controls the media. That scum bag. I wish she wasn't so racist and actually cared about the white people. Just another example of the woman keeping the white man down! I mean, she built a school in Africa and guess who goes tothat school? Just black girls! I wish us white people could get what's rightfully ours! I'm sick of being repressed by blacks.

WHITE ENTERTAINMENT TELEVISION IN AMERICA IS CALLED NBC, ABC, CBS AND FOX TV.
EVERY EDUCATED PERSON KNOWS THAT THE NAACP WAS STARTED AND FUNDED BY WHITE PEOPLE.
So your point would be what?
And no I'm not a black man, I just like sleeping with one and so did the mother of America's first black president.
and if you're posting on this site because of my comments , now what does that say about you?
any moron that will call the paying customers "SAPS AND DIP-SHITS? now... how much more facts does the movement need to know that TIM KRING IS A RETARDED SCUM BAG?

George,
sending white people to Oprah's school is not the answer to their deep seated mental issues.
Only an atomic bomb can solve that problem, but America is so broke she can't afford to buy one, right?
Do something constructive...... like try figuring out how to pay your house loans off, you know the one the white man sold to you.

what kind of idiot thinks someone could paint the future in real life? How many prime ministers or kings or queens has brittain had? You are more racist than us. But I bet you still smell like cocoa butter

Styles,
You make no sense. But that's probably because you couldn't go to school because you had to sell rock to pay your rent, but it was probably a violent school anyway

caps ftw, ive watched the show from the beginning and the first 2 seasons were good, what happened to the characters? the kid with the computer powers we saw in the third season for a second, but that's it? and after 10 episodes in the 3rd season, 20 minutes have passed... too much of nothing is happening. it has to have a storyline that is quick and not stupid. hell we are 10 episodes into season 3 and we have no idea what is going on or at least i don't lol.

as for the black, white racist stuff. take it somewhere else. we elect people based on skill for a lack of a better word, over the color of peoples skins.

styles should be ip banned, some people care about this so called thief stuff but the rest of us don't care at all about it. The main thing is he said something stupid and people think of what they want about it. My personal opinion on the matter is that everyone makes a mistake once in a while, hell not everyone can use a computer and watch the show through other means of viewing it then the tv, at least the show does the previously on heroes of the episode or two before it and ratings will fall because of the show being like this.

bottom line, he made a mistake, im still going to watch the show and hope they get somewhere fast because the last few episodes and season 3 in general hasn't been that good. Hope that volume 4 is much better.

The reason Heroes is down isn't due to increased online viewing (or at least solely due to this), but because it has gone from being a fun, tension filled show to a fucking soap opera with superheroes.

I am the exact opposite of racist - I am part arab, black, and white ( mostly black) and I am simply sickened by how much my race thinks white people owe them something. I would say we are the most racist individual group of people in the world (except for the muslim extremists). No, NBC, ABC, and FOX are not called 'White Entertainment Television' - if so, they would be off air - but somehow, we have BET and nobody cares.

STYLES - the problem with your logic, 'sista', is that you are completely fuckin ignorant. You have no idea what you are talking about and all you can do is bitch and moan about some two bit English shitcom and try and persuade some folks on here you are literate - get an education (let me guess - you attended Oxford - my fault), get a clue, and figure out how to attract someone else than a cracked out thug for a husband. I can smell your shitty assmouth from overseas - do us a favor and shut the hell up - and floss your teeth once in a while.

For 43 president you didn't elect a president based on skills, they were elected based on skin color.
If all of those white presidents and ceo's had skills then why are the american people losing their homes, bank accounts, cars etc..?
After such ignorant white racist leadrership, the WORLD was ready for a change and a black man was elected.
Obama is black and he stated that he choose to identify with black people because cabs don't stop for him sometimes in america,
I'm sure that black men world wide are happy with a first balck first lady, after all Mrs. Obama is the first , first lady with a Beyonce-J-Lo sexy behind.
America's first lady now has a booty!!!
Praise JESUS!!!!!!!!!!
My IP Should be banned?
Why?
Because the TRUTH HURTS, SAP?
You may not be interested in my post, because maybe a brisk wind makes your brain hurts, but who gives a F--K?
He made a mistake?
Calling the customers Saps is not a mistake, it's stupid, MORON.

wow styles way to cry it out cyber style. I thought the whole mantra of the black movement was about rising above injustice and being the better man. Here's a tissue go find a nice corner and come back when your ready to use your big boy voice.

The people chose a white president because black men (until the 'great' Barak Obama) where too f*ckin lazy to do anything constructive (like run for president).

And just so you are informed (as you obviously watch too much Tyra or something) - the majority of home foreclosures are happening to middle class americans because:

1)the freeloaders are fucking pieces of shit and always need more(welfare/single moms (maybe look in mirror if you are having a hard time with this one?)
2)the banks are crooked assholes
and
3)stupid fuckin lawmakers are greedy (black/white/red -doesn't matter - obama is part of this group also if you don't remember - check his voting records - oh wait - he did whatever he was told, so his original thoughts are actually unknown at this time - guess time will tell...)

It has nothing to do with white people and white presidents - americans got themselves into this mess, but we will also get out of this mess also - with dignity. So shut the fuck up about shit you have no clue about (cardboard boxes don't have mortgages do they?)

You on the other hand have no hope at all for anything except a nice big crackrock waiting for you when you come home from the street.

Tim. I accept your apology now learn how to create a coherent narative with your show Heroes and quit blaming the viewers bailing on DVR and downloading.
Take responsibility.

STYLES,
By calling people stupid and not providing any facts, TYPING IN CAPS or making your tone of your comments sound like your screaming from the top of the world isn't going to sway anyone. People will just turn a blind eye and ignore you. So before you post another comment, please read your comments before you post them. So that you don't sound like a kid, crying for attention.

I do hope Kring happens to read all that garbage styles is spouting. Slander charges would be a nice irony. Hint.

Wow, CM,,,,, Styles pushed your buttons.
so much anger..... Here in London, we were under the impression that several blacks ran for president in America. People like Jesse Jackson, shirley Chisom, Lenora fulani etc...
Do you know where London is?
Have you ever went to school and studied american history?
The ugly, ignorant american,,,, we thought that was just a stereotype.
But hey!!!! Thanks for confirming the stereotype is really true
.
The Other poster? So you're half arab and black. I doubt it, but hey if you are, then maybe you can answer this question:
Which part of you, the mostly black or the arab have a problem with the comments on this site?
Because it seems to me if you were really black, then you would know about white america's racist history with blacks, arabs, asians, latino etc...
Think about it? Who can white americans get along with?
look at their history.
as one poster said on another site, it took whites in america 43 presidents to get a half black one and every day according to CNN obama gets death threats from white neo-nazi's, klan members and skinheads.
As a white woman, this tells me that a lot of white men have a problem with me sleeping with black men.
Well,I like black men,
because i want my children to be beautiful, intelligent and talented like obama, hailley berry, alicia keys , derek jeter etc...
but back to the original post.
TIM KRING IS A THIEF AND HACK WRITER AND NO AMOUNT OF RACE TALK, IGNORANT RACISTS COMMENTS OR OPINIONS WILL CHANGE THAT FACT.
BAN MY IPO,
WHO CARES?
THE TRUTH HAS BEEN POSTED HERE AND IF AMERICANS REALLY BELIEVED IN FREE SPEECH, NO COMMENTS ON THIS SITE WOULD BE BANNED.

SLANDER? Now who could that clown sue for slander?
I'm going to sue him for slander.
He called me, the customer a SAP AND DIPSHIT.

We're not here to SWAY people. We're here to tell you the TRUTH.
We will scream from every computer until the world knows the truth.
If someone had screamed in AMERICA, you might all still have your cars, homes, 401K's and bank accounts.
the people with sense hear our post world wide, loud and clear and Heroes low ratings proves this fact.
If we could show you the e-mails we've received in the movement from people worldwide that have investigated and found out what you know not, you'd get off this site D--K Sucker.
You're already blind, that's why tim called you a SAP AND DIPSHIT.
Smell the coffee, fool.

I am sorry that you have been so wronged Styles and I don't say this to hamper your efforts at all.
Your going nowhere with this.
You will never see your justice
Life is not fair, deal with it.

I really hope you do find some peace but if your argument here in these forums is similar to your legal defense then you will no get far my friend.

White people owned slaves, black people were slaves. Indians lost their land, mexicans did too. It is an important piece of history to be sure but history none the less. I would suggest that you work on your debate skills a bit and try to actually sway people to your way of thinking rather than just spewing filth from your keyboard and hoping that someone will see the flower growing under all of the shit you have been talking.

We have all been taken advantage of and stolen from in our lives but what made us better people is the way we handled it. We handled it well, you are not. I am sure your mother is quite proud of your fight the cyber power initiative but let's face it. Kring is not public enemy #1 and your NO Chuck D

From a black man who is an american through and through.
