The first half of the SJA finale was the only one Sci-Fi reran, right before showing the second half. The episode you missed did air, and you can find a good recap here.
Easy Bake. Flop-a-palooza. Woosh. Pop. I don't skulk.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I enjoyed The Middleman. It was pretty amusing throughout, even though some of the jokes fell flat. And it doesn't take itself very seriously, which is fun.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I thought it took itself--well, it was in love with its oh-so-easy cleverness. Which didn't get traction with me.

Yeah, it was. But I'll take it for a summer show.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Okay, anyone else want to pick Jane up and hug her and squeeze her and call her George? Or, you know, just give her a basket of cupcakes and a shy grin? I do love her writing.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
Middleman worked for me. Lots of nods to the audience being in on the joke. I'll tune in next week.

I think my favorite line was "That's a very specific thing to hate." After Wendy delivered his entire line verbatim. That actress is pretty adept at spitting out a mouthful comprehensibly.

Thanks! That ended up going in a direction I wouldn't have expected.

I enjoyed Middleman. I agree with P-C that it's a good summer show.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I liked Middleman. It reminded me a little bit of Reaper and a little bit of Eureka.
