Watching this week's Fringe... Cool to see Aaron Ashmore (Logan from VM, Jimmy from SV) and Shawn Ashmore (Bobby from Xmen) playing the twins they are.
Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry, and I'm armed, so if you two have something that you need to work out --
Mal ,'War Stories'
Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I started watching TVD as a guilty pleasure while i was laid up with a broken foot and enjoying vicodin like whoa. Also read all the books (which started out embarrasing and finished with me wanting to actually burn a book, and i am heavily against book burning). But the show? Continues to please. It's total brain/eye candy, but impressively well done for a prime time soap opera featuring supernatural elements. Plus all those iliac crests and not so horrible covers of songs i love. Yes, please.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah! (Troy, not Logan.) During the opening scene, I recognized the voice of one of the guys and, even though it was hard to tell from the face, I remarked, "That's an Ashmore!" I'm still not sure which was which, though. I was guessing the non-Ambered one was Shawn, but now that I think about it, it was probably Aaron, since I'd be more likely to recognize his voice. (But, nope, I'm wrong. Shawn was Joshua, and Aaron was Matthew.)
Cary Grant in The Maltese Falcon ? Hee.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Fringe: Do you remember Kirk Acevedo and his weird firing/not firing the way he left the show last season? Do you think the writers knew he was going to come back full force a season later?
I have been wondering about that while watching this season.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
The Walking Dead: I like it when characters are smart and think of ploys like covering themselves in zombie guts to stagger undetected (well, almost) through the mob.
Also really liked the one character noted that the zombie they chopped up for guts was an organ donor. It's part of why this show reaches beyond the routine scary grossness of the zombie movie genre and remembers that the zombies were once real people.

Art Crawl!!!
Yeah, that was yucky and smart and I agree about them remembering that the zombies were once people. (Also, they still haven't called them zombies on screen, have they?)

I remember "geeks" and "walkers" -- not sure. Perhaps I shall have to watch again.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I'm skeptical that zombies would suddenly hone in on them due to the zombie guts they were wearing being washed off by a sudden shower. Wouldn't the rain itself disperse any scent of still-living bodies so the zombies wouldn't be able to track it to them specifically? It should seem like the live prey scent was coming from wherever their runoff went.

I'll totally go with it, if only because their scent may have changed due to fear and adrenaline or maybe it washed away enough of the zombie's own personal scent that they could pick it up. ::waves hands quickly and confusingly::
Look, turtles! Zombie turtles!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Gamera is really neat / he is filled with zombie meat
