The Middleman

[Herr Matzat]

It´s sort of "Man in Black the TV Show" but they cheaped out on the rights. It´s nerdy fun with only a cupple of anyoing points.

Just watch it.

I've seen the first four episodes, and I've really liked most of it. It can be a bit too quirky at times, like Pushing Daisies, but generally it's fun stuff.

I made it through to the half way point of the first episode. A bit too quirky for my taste...

The episode that references lucha libre is pretty good.

Well hello to Mr. No Need To Worry About The Facts.

The facts are that it based on an indy comic book by a man who wrote for Lost and Marvel comics. He turned hs own Indy Comic book into a TV Show, which he is exec producer, writer, and creator of.

I wanted to like The Middleman, I really did, but the oddness of it and the strange way the actors act killed it for me ultimately. I made it through two episodes, and half of a third, and I couldn't do it any longer. I think it has the same issues for me that Pushing Daisies does (a show that I still need to watch the final two S1 eps of), that being that being quirky and different is good, but sometimes you can go too far and make something difficult to watch and enjoy. Both shows have gone over that edge as far as I am concerned.
