Back in 2011 I read an article on the A.V. Club by Sam Adams called “The convenience trap: What the changes at Netflix reveal about an insidious trend”.

This year’s annual ATX Television Festival just wrapped up, but for anyone who didn’t have a chance to attend now is the time to hit YouTube and search for all of those awesome panels that we missed.

Despite the ongoing un-summer and even un-spring like weather we’ve had in Jersey lately, I take some comfort in the knowledge that it will eventually warm up.
