Also, if you have to wait very long why not just rent a car and drive from Seattle to LA
That's if the highways have cleared up from all the accidents.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
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.

Hmm, point. Though given how many planes would've crashed into them, there can't be much of a functioning runway system left either, I'm guessing...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There HAS to be free will involved as the characters go forward -- if you have SIX MONTHS to prepare for the moment when you're going to have the flash forward moment, would you PLAN to be READING the SPORTS PAGE on the JOHN?
Doesn't that argue against free will and not for it?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
so I read wikipedia about the book - the book that FF tv show is based on - and the plot summary has a whole lot of science in it. I couldn't really understand the resolution of the book. I won't say anything here in case there are actual plot overlaps.
Apparently, one theme of the book is free will and predestination. So I hope we engage in these themes a bit more and soon. I can't take the stupidity.

“Not dead yet!”
Chuck may be returning as soon as later this month rather than in March and if it does and performs even remotely well, it's likely NBC will order more than the 13 eps it already has on tap.

Compassionately intolerant
Amanda Tapping & Co. managed to entertain me more in the first 5 minutes of last night's Sanctuary premiere than in all two hours of SGUgh.
I totally agree, Matt. I was coming here to say the same thing but to substitute Fringe for SGUgh.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I liked "Fringe" this week.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I have to echo Omnis's comment in Bitches as to why not use the little floating cameras as scouts on the planet, instead of wandering in any general direction?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Limited number of Kinos?
We had some kind of divine intervention on the calcite, the location Scott fell over on wasn't looking any particularly different than any other pile of sand.
Wouldn't surprise me in the least if it turns out the Kinos have the functional equivalent of a tricorder onboard and they could have set the command to "find Calcite" and sent them off scouting.
I wish there was some more upset over the two who went through the Stargate to another planet and then couldn't be raised by radio. Two less mouths to feed, anyway.
I loved Dr Nick suggesting that Eli put his arm into the puddle to try to hold it open -- that was a cool n' gritty calculated risk that I wish the rest of the writing and characters were up to.
