I watched a television program this week that made me very happy. I don't see a lot of TV that makes me happy anymore. I see some good TV from time to time, but it's usually sad good. This was happy good. It was just good, good. It reminded me of the stories that I used to read and follow when I was a kid about noble knights who would try to do the right thing, even when it was costly or hard.

That kind of storytelling has been out of vogue for a while, or at least it has been until the last few weeks when this show I'm not going to tell you the name of came out.

You can go figure it out, you're smart.

is he passed along the good stuff about being a knight, the light. He passed that along

to his young protege, and he somehow didn't pass along all of the icky stuff about his character.

And so then this young knight, he goes and wanders into a den of great darkness, a medieval-style tournament filled with compromised nobles and compromised knights who do not care about things like integrity.

And they operate in the shadows and do things that ought not be done.

And along comes this simple, basically homeless night who
