It’s true that I do watch Grey’s Anatomy. It’s a guilty pleasure left over from my lady friends back in Ann Arbor who got me hooked. And yes, the show has become next to absolute crap ever since Season 3. There is the occasional episode worth watching, but mostly it’s the typical prime-time dribble where the cast all sleep with each other, then get angry when they sleep with another cast member.
I don’t know about you, but in real life chances are you’re going to cheat with a complete stranger more so than with a co-worker. Just saying.
Anyway, I also enjoy Castle. Nathan Fillian has been a great influence on my writing because of his superb choices in TV shows ever since Firefly. The show is wickedly entertaining, so if you’re not watching it already then you should be.
I do not watch Desperate Housewives or football (or follow any sports, for that matter. But if you invite me to see a game, I’ll probably show).
Other shows I enjoy are mostly off the air. I was a big fan of Battlestar Galactica, Farscape, 24, LOST (when it was good), Alias (again, when it was good), and many others. These days I’m mostly watching TV shows from Netflix, like That 70s Show and Futurama, but also enjoy the occasional episode of Family Guy.
So what TV shows do you enjoy?

Saturday is Free Comic Book Day – a great ffamily-friendly day to go to your local comic book shop, grab some free books, and maybe find a new series to enjoy. It’s also a great opportunity to meet some of your favorite creators.
Want to know who will be in a store near you? Check out this website for all the latest FCBD appearances.
I’ll be signing at the Comix Revolution in Mt Prospect, Il from 10am-2pm (or later, if the crowds are good). I’ll be signing copies of my books (Reading with Pictures, Hope: The Hero Initiative, and Junkyard Chase), selling sketch cards, and doing some free sketches for the kids.
Be sure to make it out to your local comic book store on Saturday for Free Comic Book Day, and get some free books and say hi to some local creators. Great for the whole family!
Hope to see you there!

Russell and I have been friends for a number of years, and have been attending most of the same conventions for the past few years. We have a running gag from a sci-fi conventions we went to where two women cosplayed as Viper Pilots from the original 1970s Battelstar Galatica (not the remake series). We thought this was pretty awesome. At the costume contest at the end of the first night, being the single guy I am, I went up and spoke with the girls – who were really quite cool. They were the highlight of the show, and Russell and I have made a running joke. Whenever a show’s not going our way, we always say, “This show would be better with Viper Pilots.”
And of course, it’s true.
I have a lot of running gags with my convention friends, and sometimes when I’m speaking on panels I’ll reveal a few of them. If you ever get to attend an “Evening with Trevor Mueller” or a similar titled panel at a show, I’ll usually tell some of the more hilarious ones. Like a run in with Mark Silvestri or some hilarious Christopher Walken jokes.
I’m putting my convention schedule together for 2011, but if you’d like me to attend a show near you be sure to reach out to the convention and have them invite me as a guest. I love to travel, and love to meet fans the world over. Doesn’t even matter if you’re a fan of my own work – if you’re a fan of something, I think I’d enjoy meeting you.
