The Middleman



The Middleman is a new ABC series for families. It is currently airing the 5th episodes. I really like the Men in Black concept behind the show.

According to fans, it seems that The Middleman started out as a TV script that became a comic before being made into a TV series... make sense? LOL.


The Middleman comic, first issue.

Usually, I will watch a few episodes before I decide if I really like the series enough to continue downloading it. So far, I have downloaded all five episodes and have only watch the 2nd episode.

I dunno if I have the right words, but I find the show rather "slap-stick" in nature. Almost similar to Pushing Daisy. I gave up watching Pushing Daisy after the 9th or 10th episodes.

The "speech or sound" of The Middleman dialogues reminded me of Ugly Betty's... LOL. Anyway, I hope The Middlemen will be much better than Pushing Daisy, because I really like the concept behind it.


Natalie Morales as Wendy Watson. She was recruited by The Middleman in the 1st episode. That was fun to watch.


Matt Keeslar as The Middleman.


In Episode 1, The Middleman showing Wendy why she was selected as the sidekick.


A very interesting character, Ida, The Middleman's robot assistant.
