Middleman

[ffutures]

Has anyone been keeping track of the aliases used by MM and WW in the series? This week there was a fairly obvious link to one of the main elements of the plot, don't know about previous weeks. I'd add it to the Middleman entry on Wikipedia, but there doesn't seem to be a trivia section for the show, and there are probably loads of other things I'm missing.

I don't know about their aliases, but a lot of the stuff on the "Time and Location" crawls is inside jokes. The episode with the Chinese mud warrior looking for the scion of Ch'in kept referencing Dune, and we kept getting Western directors this week.

Harland and Wolf are somewhat well known in the shipbuilding industry. Including, of course, a certain doomed ship...

TV.com has a couple of others: three sets of aliases in the boy band episode referenced Indiana Jones, and another set in this episode beside the one you noticed meant something.

Huh, a Harland and Wolff reference? Nice to hear my hometown mentioned.
