Somehow or another firefox now works for ABC's Full Episode Player. I'll be trying out Fox sometime soon. Anyway, ABC had a show premiere tonight called The Middleman. Unless you like shows that aren't funny, have no sense of plot, and have really bad characters, I would suggest you avoid it.
The Middleman is supposed to be a hero that saves regular people by killing monsters and making sure bad guys (or girls) go to jail. He looks like an 'average joe' dressed up in a suit and enough gear to take on the national guard by himself. Of course you won't see all this gear until he takes it off.
Somehow or another the sidekick gets picked because she was a temp answering phones at some god awful science lab because he rescued her from a monster that they cooked up. Because she was quick to not panic and grabbed a weapon (a letter opener that came from nowhere) and tried to rescue herself from the monster when it grabbed her he decided to recruit her.
Want to know how he recruited her? He stole her lighter (a gift from her father) and blamed her for a gas explosion by planting it as evidence! Then because she's a temp it ruined her name with all the other temp agencies (since when do temp agencies talk to each other?) therefore causing her to go to his temp agency in order to get a job. Of course she turned him down.
But being as there'd be no show if she didn't start working with him she went back to a crime scene in order to assist.
And if you do decide to watch it have something around you to do. Crocheting, knitting, a book or magazine. There are parts that are basic fluff. Oh wait, the entire show is fluff. Better off not to watch it at all. Laters!
