I like it, but I hope it goes more Lost than Heroes.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

After viewing FlashForward, I am all about OMG JOHN CHO. For obvious reasons, this could prove problematic.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I also liked FlashForward, though wow, they have a whole lot of English and Irish actors there. At least Jack Davenport gets to play English.
I would like to point out that after a catastrophe of that magnitude, no way they'd have consistent power and cell phone signals. That kept pulling me out a little.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Word. He got me more than anyone else, and in a cast with Jack Davenport (even though he had little to do beyond the obvious reveal) and Joseph Fiennes that's good work.
I hope it goes more Lost than Heroes.
I'm irrationally bothered by the Oceanic Airlines poster they showed. You can't have that and Dominic Monaghan and whatstername too. It's like when CSI and L&O recycle their actors. It's just wrong.
I missed Fringe tonight, didn't I? I've hit the Thursday pileup.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Fringe was a little meh in comparison to last week's, although there's an interesting new development for Olivia.
And I am also very pro-Cho. Even though I was spoiled for his plight, he got me.

Ditto. So it's not just me!

Did I miss something about why the guy would create a kid like that? Sure, it helped him live, but there really can't be an upside to such a thing.
I am assuming, though, that Walter's allusions to the repercussions of inter-dimensional travel mean that that's what made him ... the way he is.

He had clearly never seen an episode of The X-Files before.

Oooh. I didn't think about that!

Our wings are not tired.
Haven't seen FlashForward, yet. This will be remedied.
Fringe: Walter is breaking my heart. He is clearly very worried about Olivia. She isn't usually my favorite character, but his concern for her drags me along.

I'm wondering if the problem isn't GOING to an alternate dimension so much as COMING BACK. Which would explain why his son hasn't had such problems.
