What on earth did I just watch??!?

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

So, I just watched the first episode of “The Middleman” (2008). It was free on iTunes, although there’s a fair chance I would have paid for it after seeing the “probes” fake-PSA promo.

Now…this is a show that’s airing on ABC Family. I mostly make a habit of not watching stuff that airs on basic-cable channels [...]

Wait, people don’t like Sarah Paulson?

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

It’s a self-confirming prophesy, because the more that scifi creators are told this, [...]

Fringe: Less ??X-Files??, more ??Numb3rs?? meets ??Threshold??
