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.
Yeah, when Mitchell falls off the wagon he doesn't fuck around.
I had a flashback to the scene in "Crush" where Drusilla's train arrives in Sunnydale. All we see is the conductor stepping up to the open door and getting yanked in, and then later the tape outlines of where the bodies were. With Mitchell and Daisy we got to see the Before instead of the After.
As for George....I'm trying, because I know I'm supposed to empathize with his efforts to retain his humanity and live a normal life, but he just irritates me.
He and Mitchell are both written consistently at least. (And I do like the fact that they take the "addict" metaphor to its logical conclusion. When Mitchell turns back into a serial killer it really is like a drunk falling off the wagon. When the binge ends he will have about the same guilt as an AA guy coming down after polishing off a case of scotch over an extended drunk.)
Also Mitchell asking women to be his salvation: way to pressure someone else into taking responsibility for your bad habits asshole.
And the funny thing is I find judging the characters harshly doesn't stop me from enjoying it. "Oh, George, No". "Pass the popcorn." munch, munch. "Mitchell, you are still an asshole". munch. Munch.
Annie is the one really throws me out of the show sometimes. I do like her - she is the only one who never hurts anyone except in the face of really intense provocation. But the write her a little too broadly, descending to farce where it is not appropriate and far more over the top than her character is most of time.
Anyone have little pet peeves that take you out of a scifi movie or tv show?
Try this: Any time you see the stars on tv or in a movie, see how many groups of stars you can find where there are three bright stars all in a line (and relatively close together). I can usually find lots of groups like that in any one star fictional field - which is wrong, as there's only one such group of stars visible from Earth. Orion's belt is where you see that.
I try to ignore it but I just can't help myself.
Traditional greeting hoodie. I'm not sure it's $40 worth of cool, but it's pretty sweet.
Ha! More fuel for the HG/Myka ship, what with Helena being bi.
ita, I totally bought one. I am a geek!
What do you all think of "Warehouse 13?" The show feels unsubstantial. Is that just me?
It's one of the shows that stacks up on the tivo. If I have time to watch it, I will, but I am just as likely to delete multiple episodes if I'm feeling pressed.
Yeah totally fluff. I kind of get a kick out of it. But fluff.
