My radio career starts here (or something)
I was on Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition last night! Woo! Actually, I was on it last week for all of two sentences but they were good enough apparently to get me back on this week to have another go at talking about the coming season of US TV. If you want to listen to my shiny opinions of The Playboy Club, Pan Am, Castle, Parks & Recreation, Terra Nova, Falling Skies, Wilfred, In Treatment, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and – amazingly – Who’s The Boss, fingers crossed the embedded player will let you for the next week at least (don’t know if this will work in the US). My bit begins at 2h16mins in or thereabouts and lasts for about 20 minutes.

Been missing Heroes? Want something that’s almost identical but a bit more average – doesn’t quite hit Heroes‘ heights but doesn’t hit its depths?
Then have I the show for you. It’s about a group of different people from different backgrounds who have extraordinary abilities. They all come together to help solve crimes and fight a greater evil. They’re not very interesting people, but they have some cool super powers and the plotting is actually pretty clever.
I’m sure it’ll do… averagely. Here’s a trailer.
