Stick to the Podcasts Kevin Smith


Kevin Smith (aka Nerd leader #1) is producing a reality show about people that work in and visit his comic shop in NJ, Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash. This is an awful idea. Supposedly the network geniuses at AMC see this as some sort of Pawn Stars meets Big Bang Theory kind of nonsense. I've been collecting comics for about what, 50, 60 years now. And let me tell you, no one is interested in any conversation that happens in a comic shop. Well sometimes I talk we talk Sounders, so I guess if you're an MLS fan you might be interested.. sometimes.

Seriously, the last long conversation I had at the comic shop was about how good the book Scalped is right now and how weird it is that Jason Aaron is writing the snot out of that book but everything else he's written has been pretty uninspired by comparison. Then a 10 year old walked in and bought some Pokemon cards. Now that's Must See TV!

Ok, maybe I'm being too harsh. The Pawn Stars rip-off aspect of the show could be interesting. I'm eagerly awaiting seeing some 35 year old dudes hearts get broken when they find out the 9 copies of Spawn #1 are worth less than the plastic they're bagged in.
