Mediocrity

Last night kicked off a week of television premiers with the second season of Heroes. My wife and I watched (in real time; that’s an important distinction in the TiVo age). We went to bed shortly after, since we’re now old and perpetually exhausted. Our conversation went as follows:

Me: “So, were you impressed by Heroes tonight?”
Mindy: “No.”
Me: “Me neither.”

There was short span of silence before our conversation continued:

Me: “Have we ever been impressed by Heroes?”
Mindy: “No, not really.”

The magic of television is how it captivates you with nothing.

    Just wait until House. (Tonight?!) Then you’ll be impressed. Because it’s House.

    No spoilers, though. I’m not sure I’m going to get to see it tonight.

    I missed the new House. The man is starting to really get on my nerves. Shark was a good start although the daughter is getting to be quite the jerk.
