Ah, thanks for clearing that up Jessica. I was, in fact, high.
Harken: You fought with Captain Reynolds in the war? Zoe: Fought with a lot of people in the war. Harken: And your husband? Zoe: Fight with him sometimes, too.

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.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The Boomer retcon took some hand-waving, but it does explain why her "missions" came at such random-seeming intervals. It does NOT explain why she resurrected without her Cylon memories intact. (Even if she died in her "sleeper" mode, well, so did Ellen. And SHE got all her memories back as soon as she came back to life.)

FlashForward: no dead Janis!
Also, the hobbit is pretty damn SMOOV.

Ha! Mark, Olivia, and Simcoe just TOTALLY had a
"Brad!"
"Janet!"
"Dr. Scott!"
"Janet!"
"Rocky!"
"Dr. Scott!"
moment, there. Without words, though. All eye contact.

I just read the article about the American adaptation of Being Human and came to the sentence that says
Syfy is targeting a launch in summer or fall 2010 and eyeing the series as a potential companion piece to breakout hit "Sanctuary," which deals with similar subject matter.
And how is this in any way a similar subject matter to Sanctuary, other than the fact that they're both fantasy shows? Has the writer even seen either of the shows?

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Maybe they meant to remake Primeval? That is very like Sanctuary!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sanctuary deals with the lives of people born mythological, not normal. The big important difference is that we're seeing them from the outside.
If it's a companion to Sanctuary, what goes with SGU?

“Not dead yet!”
Ha! Mark, Olivia, and Simcoe just TOTALLY had a
"Brad!"
"Janet!"
"Dr. Scott!"
"Janet!"
"Rocky!"

moment, there.
Jesus, Tep, that sharing a brain thing is scary. Lewis and I were watching it on the DVR and when we got to that moment, I paused and said the EXACT same thing to him and I hadn't been in here yet.
I was yelling at the television "Be a man, Mark!" when Lloyd held out his hand to shake.

I thought the Mark/Olivia breakup was too forced. I thought he had every reason to be freaked, but the escalation didn't work for me.
Noh continues to rock. I continue to suspect he'll father Janis's child. I hope they don't sleep together, though.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I am worried that The Plan sounds rubbish (even without reading spoiler font). Will it make me terribly sad to watch it? I am so committed to BSG that I didn't even hate the finale...
apparently SyFyWhy has ordered a 13 ep remake of Being Human.
That's annoying. Most BBC remakes aren't that good. BH is excellent already and doesn't need an American remake.
Still, at least they haven't proposed remaking Doctor Who.
