Wayne 'Rerun' LaPierre and his speech about the Newtown tragedy

 I defended the TV industry on the podcast last night in response to Wayne LaPierre's speech about the CT tragedy.

 

 Predictably he blamed TV/movies etc. Hey LaPierre how about saying something original and with more thought than simply blaming TV and the rest of the entertainment industry !

 

 This tragedy I think can be blamed on the mother for not getting her son the help he was calling out for, and for basically leaving out in the open an arsenal of weapons.

My picks for the new TV season and thoughts about JERICHO

The new TV series that I will be watching are: Revolution, Last Resort, Vegas, Chicago Fire, Do No Harm and 666 Park Avenue.  

Must see mid season series on ABC will be Zero Hour and The Following on FOX.

I think those series will be a solid investment of my time as new series this fall..

Added Zero Hour, because if a new fall series on ABC fails, I am sure they will usher in Zero Hour earlier.

Also towards the end of the year, I look forward to House of Cars on NetFlix..

All the new series that I mentioned about I feel offer a great mix of TV series that I like.  

About JERICHO, I am hoping that if Revolution opens big on NBC, that the reaction to that will be for CBS and NetFlix to produce new episodes. 

Something big needs to happen to nudge CBS and NetFlix together..
