UNDERSTANDING SUPERMAN :: RELEVANT magazine

I can count on one hand the TV shows that I really watch week in and week out:

• NYPD Blue
  
• According To Jim
  
• Law & Order (regular or SVU)
  
• American Idol (first few tryout episodes and final six or seven, when it gets good)
  
• Smallville

If one of these show is on, I'll watch. If not, I'm looking for sports somewhere, or I'm finding an HDnet documentary or something. For NYPD Blue and Smallville, I really didn't get into them much in their beginnings. But I'm pretty much hooked right now.

And I missed Smallville this week. Aarrgghh. I'll have to peruse fansites, get the write-up on what happened in this "fresh episode" as it winds down for the season. Aarrgghh. Anyway, I linked the article from RelevantMag above because it's so true - as I get older, I'm still looking for heroes. And now, I'm drawn to heroes who struggle with what it means to be a man, what it means to have talents and gifts, what it means to wrestle with convictions and with people in their lives.
