Oh yeah. It was lots of fun and I'm happy to have another episode tomorrow night.
To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

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.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
It was pretty much what I expected
It was a little too much what I expected and not enough of what I hoped. Except for the "Now! With More Kung-Fu!" bits, everyone is exactly where they were last year -- both situationally and in terms of character growth.
Do real-life electronics superstores sell cheesy puffs?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I know Frye's electronics, in California, used to have a fairly extensive snack selection.

MicroCenter in Cambridge has a bunch of snacks -- mostly candy -- near the checkout counters.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Fry's still sells an assload of junk food.

Nice Buffy reference on Being Human last night.
(I don't have much to say about the rest of the ep; I only half-watched season 1 and don't know if I'm going to stick around for season 2.)

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Fiona, yes! I said (mentally), "yes, I noticed that as well. It was really confusing in discussion." to the character.
I also said, " Nina, love, you don't really have much of a righteous indignation leg to stand on when you won't tell your boyfriend what you're actually upset about, dumbass."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Enjoyed Chuck last night, but I'm not as much into it as last season. I was really hoping we'd have character growth, some kind of change, or at least somebody moving the fuck on. (Besides Anna. I applaud Anna for, apparently, moving on.) I'm annoyed rather than amused by the Buy More subplot now. I'm sick of the juvenile idiots constantly getting in Chuck's way by doing immensely stupid things, and yet somehow managing to always provide the McGuffin that saves the day. I cheered when the manager got shot, dead for reals. I'm finding the ill-starred love between Chuck and Sarah has become tedious. I do like that they've kept Chuck still being Chuck despite the erratic super-spy powers. I like that he's not living with his sister anymore, though it would've been better if he'd been the one to move out.
Huh. I disliked it more than I thought. I'll give it another couple episodes before I delete it from my DVR queue.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If I haven't watched since the pilot, would now be a good time to pick the show up again? I got the impression from the promos that this season was a reboot, but the comments I'm reading here indicate that that's not really the case.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
no, not really a reboot.
I think you should watch last season before picking up this season. Last season (particularly the last 3rd of the season) was really good. That show ended on a really high note.
