Better Late than Never or Maybe Not

Now that I am alone, widowed for those who ask; I find myself relying on my computer for entertainment to a new degree.  I have joined Netfilx and Hulu and am now introducing myself to missed T.V. series and movies.  My topic tonight is the 2007 series Journeyman.  Now I know from my research that I may be the last person on the planet to discover this show.  Since I am a life long Sci Fi  fan, this is somewhat embarrassing.  Journeyman was only on for one season and I do not remember seeing even one review at the time.  At the time, everything was Heroes, which I was watching, sadly as season two was nothing like season one.  So now, in 2011 I find myself mourning the end of an excellent series that offered great writing and spot on acting and mourning too late by three years.  I am used to seeing good T.V. die unrewarded, we all are.  The Wire, Men of a Certain Age,  My So called Life, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, this last is probably the longest running comment on teen culture ever written.  I watched all those.  I was sorry to see them go but Journeyman was a complete surprise.  I was just looking to maybe re watch some Quantum Leap and thanks to Hulu's'automatic suggestions (If you liked X, you will love Z), I found this show.   I could probably go on about this for another 200 word's but I have to sign off.  Time to watch a Pretender episode.
