It is part murder-mystery spinoff, part Watergate hangover. At the first sign of misconduct in government we come clanking in with the heavy paraphernalia of a variety of legal and legalish proceedings. This habit has taken irony to a new place. For it manages to hound, harass and often to persecute its quarry while at the same time giving many of them an undeserved pass.

Clooney plays ship captain Billy Tyne, a down-on-his-luck fisherman who leads a crew of six (including Bobby Shatford, played by Wahlberg) into the Atlantic for a month of dangerous “long-line” sword fishing.

But Zack Snyder’s 2009 film adaptation wasn’t half bad (only a little flawed) and gained a new generation of fans who went back and discovered the comics. Now, writer Damon Lindelof (Lost, Prometheus) brought it back once more with a critically acclaimed HBO show. But after an ace first season, who will watch the Watchmen again in season 2? Will there be a Watchmen season 2? To almost everyone’s surprise following the success of season one: probably not....
Just this week, Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri Tweeted that iPad users are “still just not a big enough group of people to be a priority.” Meanwhile, Apple sold $7.2 billion worth of iPads in its last reported quarter.
