Doyle ,'Life of the Party'
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.
According to this it was Erica Cerra.
That makes more sense. Because I've seen Emmanuelle Vaugier enough times; you'd think I'd recognize her when I see her.
You'd THINK the official CW site would have the right info.
You'd think. Although it appears Erica Cerra was also on SV. But Emmanuelle Vaugier's been on SV, SPN, and VM. At least.
FYI - apparently David Eick is writing a pilot based on Children of Men.
Sounds interesting. Will it work?
Will it work?
They can save money by shooting each episode in one continuous take!
At the SciFi Channel's upfront, Eick said the proposed TV series would veer closer to the source material, P.D. James' novel.
huh. The book is VERY different from the movie. And, while it's well written and interesting, not nearly as good as the movie.
Hee, I'm watching the "What famous people think of Battlestar Galactica" show. Ed Quinn remains adorable. And all of the other famous fanboys/girls are adorable, too.
Jesse L Martin, you remain a hottie. Who watches BSG. Man, I had you pegged as awesome from the first time I saw you. I was so right.
Oh, Seth! Seth Green! Hi! Hi! I did not recognize you at first in your funky little beret.
Fiona, what did you think of the Ashes to Ashes finale? I actually liked it. I liked how all the pieces came together at the end, and the scene with her mom was really sweet and made me finally like Alex. It occurs to me, though, that the ending is basically the same as the first season finale of LoM! The dad was bad again!
I was a little confused because about halfway through they seemed to be suggesting that EVAN was the one responsible. I don't know what was up with all the random Evan flashes, then.
So two out of the first five episodes were good, but the last three were all good, so I think the show finally hit its stride. I hope the next season is more consistently good.
Top 43 BSG Moments of All Time. It's a good list!
That is a great list!
The BSG thingies were all right. I have no idea why they chose the people they did for the second one, though. Someone from Anthrax? Huh? Am I missing something?
Joss was fun, though. Of course.
Unrelatedly:
While the increasingly complex plots of network dramas forecast limitless possibilities for the "Previously on" industry, Cavanaugh expressed concern over the recent trend of television shows using their own characters to introduce their summarizing montages—seen on both Battlestar Galactica and 24.
"I applaud those shows for taking a creative risk, but it's just not professional," said Cavanaugh, singling out Edward James Olmos as the worst offender. "On-screen actors don't have the skills to pull off a 'Previously on.' They think it's all about hitting the 'P,' because that's the flashy bit, but they have no respect for the 'on.'"
"Battlestar Galactica—what's that, seven syllables?" he continued. "What a waste."
Someone from Anthrax? Huh? Am I missing something?
Why not? The band are huge fanboys - even I knew that from a photo spread somewhere last year. It wasn't meant to be some academic examination of the thing, just a fun romp, and I think they achieved that. Not that the dude from Anthrax couldn't have been all thinky... I just don't think that was the point. I think the point was, "Look! This show has famous fans! Watch our network, dammit."
ION, The Onion, still funny.
