Critical thinker ...

I was a big fan of John Leonard's television reviews, in New York magazine and elsewhere; whenever I saw his byline I made a point of reading. Leonard died recently, and the Columbia Journalism Review ran this story about his memorial service.

His opinion and mine almost always matched. I am a James Garner/ "Rockford Files" fan, and so was he. I loved the 1980s TV show "Sledgehammer," and so did he! He could just express it much, much better. Here's proof, from a 1986 issue of New York.
