ABC Family has premiered a new super hero action/comedy,
The Middleman. Adapted from a comic book by former
Lost writer Javier Grillo-Marxuach (and the comic itself was adapted from an unsold TV pilot Grillo-Marxuach wrote in the '90s),
The Middleman is at once retro and post-modern, the sort of result you'd get if you threw
The Tick and the '50s black-and-white
Superman TV show into a blender. I heard it's quite a lot of fun.
