Superdickery TV on HBO

Superdickery is a term made famous by a blog featuring pictures of Superman being cruel to his friends, something he apparently did with abandon back in the day.

It also aptly describes a new series on HBO: Hung, the story of a guy endowed with abilities beyond those of mortal men.

No, really:

"Think of him like Spider-Man," Burson said. "He's an average guy who gets in touch with his innate super powers."

The co-creators see the pick-up as a sign that "HBO has been invigorated as a place to go for creative talent."
