Happy 13th birthday to TMINE!

A birthday cake

Crikey, as I always say. How did that happen?

Time has flown again, since The Medium Is Not Enough emerged blinking into the world a stupifying 13 years ago, primed to make sarcastic comments about UK and foreign TV, mainly from the US, mainly in languages I can speak, with reviews of Prison Break, Supernatural, and Global Frequency.

This year, of course, we’ve had the great big WordPress migration and redesign. Boxset and Movie Mondays have arrived. YouTube Red has started producing watchable TV. And I’ve got a year older. Sigh.

As always, a great big thank you to all the regular commenters: Mark Carroll, JustStark, bob, Craig Grannell, idleworm, Adam Bowie, Ian Miller and new arrival MasterWitcher088. But thank yous to anyone who’s left even one comment this year – it’s been great to hear from you!

Same time next year everyone? I say that every year, don’t I? Anyway, there’ll be cake, so bring your friends.

I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
