'Serenity'
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.
The "Gangsta's Paradise" singalong commercial moved me from being mildly disgruntled about the movie to wanting to slip into projection booths and burn the prints as a service to mankind.
I tuned in after work all psyched about seeing the marathon, and was horrified by the drastic failure to meet expectations. In an hour and a half I've seen Bruce Lee answer a phone and kick a door open.
Anyone watched The Cape? I couldn't work out the tone, precisely.
That's exactly where I am with it. I'm giving it another episode in case it suddenly gels into something I can just enjoy. I don't really want a serious superhero show taking itself seriously.
I'll keep watching it for a bit more, but I suspect Summer Glau might have more time on her hands soon.
That's kind of where I am, too.
I couldn't work out the tone, precisely.
Yeah. It's got too much "Wait, that's just stupid" to be taken seriously, and yet it spent too much time being all Batman Begins about it to be camp.
My sister, of all people, called me to tell me The Cape was on and to watch it. I probably wouldn't have otherwise. She seemed to like it. I thought it was predictable and hokey, and yeah, couldn't quite tell if it was meant to be campy and poke fun at itself, or take itself seriously. I kept saying, Is that really Richard Schiff? Dang.
It's in the category "I didn't really like it, but I watched it all anyway, and I'll watch another just to see if it gets better. Also, Summer Glau."
It seems to be trying to be Batman Begins. I'm going to give it a chance. I like the magician. Also, Summer Glau.
I couldn't get past minute 10. I will suffer through a lot to watch Glau (I watched every episode of "Dollhouse" after all), but this show tested me.
gah. Meltdown is so effing sexy. Ben and Claudia have got to have some of THE best chemistry in the history of ever.
I just rewatched this last Christmas Who special, and I liked it so much more the second time. It's now my second favourite after The Next Doctor.
I may be in an incredibly sappy mood.
