I can't believe TV Guide managed to make Morena look even more creepy beautiful. That's some lighting. And, uh, PhotoShop, I'm sure.
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

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.

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

The first episode of The Prisoner I ever saw was "Living in Harmony." (The Western)
To say I was confused is an understatement.
Heh. Oh yeah.

I had only seen a bit of the new Prisoner when I commented. Overall, I'm enjoying it. I'm also (unspoiledly) speculating that between drugs and mind control (and maybe VR) the entire village is on one floor of the company #6 works for.

I'm still watching (going to bed soon, I swear) tonight, but I loved the explanation of who Number 1 was.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
the entire village is on one floor of the company #6 works for
I'd been thinking the same thing.

And maybe the mysteriously opening pits are because Superboy Prime keeps punching holes in reality.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Doctor Who:
1. My dog's name for the next few days will be Doctor Timelord Victorious. Seriously, I was hopping up and down in the room for about 5 minutes, explaining the friend I watched with the reasoning beyond the Roman names and how awesome that he took it. If I could, I'd make people call me that.
2. I think he was quiet insane from the beginning of the ep. For me, something didn't really click there well, from the beginning. It wasn't the Doctor I know nor loved. There was something else in him, and it wasn't the lack of companion. It was beyond it.
3. On a second thought, it was better than the death-wish in disguise of craziness: it was the real thing. But it's not very much like the Doctor to forget that people can, and will, surprise you. That's what make us people.
4. "He will knock 4 times": I read a brilliant theory that all is in the baseline of the theme of the New Doctor. Will translate it tomorrow, it's in Hebrew. It's retcon, but it's a retcon of awesomeness.
5. Until the last 20-25 minutes of the ep, I was almost bored, disappointed. Then, fascinated, electrified, hopeful, fearing. My Doctor. The Doctor.
