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, Torv is Australian.
And I think it took a while for the writers to figure out the characters in the beginning. Peter and Broyles, for instance, are very different in the pilot than who they are just a few episodes later. They dropped the antagonism with Olivia pretty quickly, if I recall.
I ate it up like popcorn one weekend a couple of months back.
That series was a good trashy fun. With pretty good actors despite the melodramatic plots. I kinda started having rage blackouts about Sarah Parrish's character though, because of the GROSS ETHICAL BREACH OMG. I did not know there was a season 2! Hmmm.
I agree. Her plot was a watch from the hall from me. I just couldn't take it. There is not one thing she did right the whole time.
In searching around for the Tribe, I found an entirely different Brit series called Tribe. This one features, Bruce Parry, a rather whingy fellow, traveling around the world and living with various tribal people for a month.
Once I'd gotten the episode and realized it was not the post-apocalyptic genre stuff I'd been looking for, I made to turn it off, but ended up being completely sucked into Barry's month with the Nenet. The Nenet are reindeer herders above the Arctic Circle. Absolutely riveting.
Frankly, how any person could survive on the tundra, much less prefer it to their warm and cozy houses in town, strikes me as fairly scifi-y.
::pulling a warm blanket and my nice warm pup closer::.
I was yelling at the TV to have her de- , erm, whatever is the equivalent of "defrocked" or "disbarred" for doctors. Sarah Parrish was great as usual, but the character was a disaster.
Afterward, as a palate cleanser, I had to rewatch the Sarah Parrish/Damien Lewis version of "Much Ado About Nothing." Man, I flove that series.
Er, topic. OLIVIA PWNS ALL. And I think they missed a golden opportunity by not having Fauxlivia interact with Ella, which probably would have humanized her 100x more than by having her do the sexytimes with Peter.
who here is watching the UK series, Misfits?
I just watched all 10 episodes in two days!! soso good!!
Over in Ogle, I mentioned that I wasn't hooked by S1 and nearly gave up on it, but these last few episodes have me enthralled.
Ogle is where the bulk of the discussion is happening, if you'd care to wander over there.
thanks for the tip! pretty sure i've never even been in that thread.
