Some of you may have been wondering if you’ve stumbled onto a wannabe-homegrown-Teevee site rather than the wannabe-homegrown-johnaugust.com I aspire to. Well, I could say that sing –
It’s my party
And I’ll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to
Cry if I want to
– but I’m in one of my rare moments of adult-ness so I’ll say this: someone wrote those shows, and a large part of our enjoyment derives from the stories they tell and the characters within. And if the show turns me on, I like to share the love.
(Some of you more sharp-eyed surfers may be confused about my relationship with Medium. That show’s lack of character consistency and surfeit of expository dialogue may set my teeth on edge but I watch it because it tells some wicked cool stories, sometimes with style aplenty.)
