Thanks, Frank!
Being Human: I watched the ep last night, but don't see the point in continuing when I've seen it before. Even the preview at the end made it seem like they were just rehashing the UK stories.
It's possible that he's in the land of perpetual Wednesday, or the crazy melty land, or you know, the world without shrimp.

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.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

I don't think Witwer will have trouble with dangerous. It's the chummy jocularity with Josh that he's falling flat on so far. So many missed opportunities when talking him into the roomie situation, in front of the landlord, during the housecleaning montages, etc. He really only made that connection in the scene where he picked Josh up from the park, and if he hadn't managed a bit of levity when faced with Sam Huntington in a flower print dress I'd have started wondering if the actor was one of the undead as well.

It's true: this version of Being Human doesn't get the comedy. Timing is difficult.

To be fair, the pilot of The Middleman felt off to me. It took a few episodes for the actors to get used to Javi's style of dialog and get their timing down, but once they did, it was hilarious.

All is well that ends in pizza.
And then? Canceled.

Same for me, Scola.

I just watched last night's Chuck, and I LOVED it. I too adored Morgan and Casey helping with the proposal, and I was so sure it was going to happen on the balcony at the end there, but of course not. It took them two and a half seasons to get together, I'm sure it'll take a full other one for this proposal to happen.
Preview for next week also looks amazing. Of course, I'll be living on a ship by then, and so I have no idea how I'm going to watch it, but I'll make it happen.
