Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

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.

Dude, Janis is a BADASS.

I really dislike the use of music in this show.

Really? I busted out laughing. "How does it feel?!"

I mean, I love John Cho and Courtney Vance being all badass shooty, but -- I don't know. I think it's hokey.

Also, did they KILL Janis?!? I will be displeased if that's so.

the hokey is why I enjoyed it. Took their dramatic OMG Mortal Peril! moment and made it goofy, and took the seemingly safe Janis and gave her the OMG Mortal Peril.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Steph,

that last use of music was annoying. I'm in agreement.

that last use of music was annoying. I'm in agreement.

It reminded me WAY too much of the use of "Over the Rainbow" in one of the many fight scenes in Face/Off (which also annoyed me).

So was Janis' last gasp, lying there bleeding from a gut shot, her actual last gasp, or did she just pass out? Opinions?

I mean *Wesley* survived a gut shot...

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

no WAY is she dead. no way.

I won't believe it until I see her pronounced dead and see her blue on an ME's table.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

If President Coyote resigns within the next six months, he'd still be called "President" and would still get Secret Service protection, right? That could make the Senator/VPs flashforward claim true.

Also, who was the polygraph guy at the beginning? The actor looked familiar.
