There's good news, bad news and weird news today out of Hollywood.
Let's start with the bad news because it's hard to fathom why more wasn't done to lure viewers to this now-canceled series.
In case you didn't know, Sweet/Vicious aired on MTV and followed the story of two "vigilantes," Jules and Ophelia, who fought back against injustice on their college campus.
A specific type of injustice. The type that happens to girls and isn't always followed up by campus authorities because the boys are excellent sportsmen, the girls were wearing the wrong outfits or it might be too hard to prove.
You know what I'm talking about. Sexual assault. That dirty little secret that gets swept under the rug far too often and for too many different reasons.
Jules and Ophelia made it their mission to get justice for those who suffered, and they weren't beyond suffering themselves.

It's been more than three years since Wikileaks founder Julian Assange felt able to safely appear in public. So he can be forgiven for celebrating his first taste of freedom - no matter how tiny. On Friday, the journalist and publisher took to the small balcony of the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, where he's claimed political asylum since 2012, to praise the United Nations for deciding he's been unlawfully detained, with a cry of "How sweet it is!" "This is a victory that cannot be denied," Assange added to the swelled ranks of reporters gathered underneath. "It is a victory of historical importance.
