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.
That has to be the explanation for showing 2 of the main characters this week.
It's not the first time they did it--they limited it to Will and Magnus before, in the submarine episode when she was going crazy. Not sure if that negates budget concerns, but I thought I'd mention the precedent.
I'm just relieved there was an episode where I didn't have to see Kate, but the idea that Will would have a kid with her is quite icky. Especially since I thought they were going somewhere with her and Henry.
It's a scary vision of what the world would be like if everyone's IQ was halved.
Not to mention their paranoia. When has any group of humans embraced anything new that quickly and uniformly? I don't care how many advance Visitors there were--we just don't work like that.
We would have suicide bombers/military/individuals who are armed through whatever means from several countries trying to take out these visitors. If this were depicting reality.
Thanks for the precedent, you are right. I think I saw that as a budget cutting move too!
the idea that Will would have a kid with her is quite icky. Especially since I thought they were going somewhere with her and Henry.
Poor Henry. He needs some lovin'. Maybe not with Kate, but still. He'd probably have more screen time if he had a romantic subplot, and I like watching him.
Clearly Christopher Heyerdahl is willing to oblige with his half of such a subplot, so they might as well roll with it.
Peter's didn't get much to do on Fringe this week. But it was a Broyles-centric episode, so I'm willing to take the tradeoff as long as they give him more agency soon. Pacey was made for more than babysitting.
The new Prisoner is pretty freaking awesome. Just FYI.
The premiere is next Sunday.
There are just enough nods to the original to make me happy, but it's also very distinctly its own thing.
What network is it going to be on?
AMC.
