The Mediocrity Principle

Been seeing the billboards around town for Blind Justice, the latest cop show with an unconventional crime solver. There are the inevitable comparisons to the BBC’s Second Sight, starring Clive Owen. I remember quite liking what I saw of that show…and I suppose I’m predisposed to thinking that this American take on the idea is crap. So there you go. Knee jerk judgement (but the critics seem to agree with me). Oh, how I pine for the days when Joss Whedon’s shows graced our public airwaves. Most of my distractions are to be found online these days, anyhow. And who needs teevee when we’ve got vloggers to watch?

In other news, the music portion of SXSW began today. And the Upper Midwest Blog Managers Assocation is being finely represented by Lorika, Lane and Chollie. Speaking of whom…just yesterday Chuck and crew met the man behind Homestar and crew. Sigh.
Bonus: The day has come for a new fiendish Making Fiends episode.
Plus: Speaking of Whedon…‘Firefly’ Actors Enjoy a New ‘Serenity’
And: Apparently Mr. Sam Brown did some drawings on the fly, at SXSW. For me it’s a tie between ‘Merge‘ and ‘Take Me‘. Magnificient.
