This whole business with Anna trying to isolate the human soul is so eye-rollingly bad!
The what now? I quit before the end of last season.
It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I like the idea of sciencey souls, but I haven't seen it done well yet.
I would have been in Jon's shoes, but last night NCIS:LA, V, and Raising Hope all came on at the same time. As little respect as I have for Baywatch NCIS, it got chosen over V. I do regret not seeing Oded, though.

Why am I still watching V? This whole business with Anna trying to isolate the human soul is so eye-rollingly bad!
I've been asking myself the same question. The main reason I had last season is gone since they turned Morris Chestnutt's character into Johnny-one-note. Oh well, at least they brought back Nicholas Lea.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Also eye-rollingly bad: Grandma V trapped in the basement dungeon... of the spaceship.

Compassionately intolerant
The what now? I quit before the end of last season.
Wow. Me too. And I'm usually the stick to it type.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Wait... V is still on? I hadn't even known. Or cared, actually.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Klingons and Daleks! Amazing "Star Trek vs. Doctor Who" Art Piece
This is like the poster for the greatest crossover movie ever. The Eleventh Doctor and Amy team up with ShatnerKirk and NimoySpock to fight the Klingons, Romulans, Daleks and Cybermen. For the record, though, the Daleks would p0wn the Klingons and Romulans, and then take on the Federation. Artists Mike Mayhew & Rainier Beredo created this piece for the late, lamented Wizard Magazine.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
A local paper recently ran this piece on the pilot shoot on a new show based on a comic book called "Locke & Key," written by the son of Stephen King. Huh. I did not know King had a writer-son.
It's basically a haunted house story, it looks like, but has some awesome people involved already. First of all, it stars Miranda Otto! And Nick Stahl, about whom I have mixed feelings, but... OK. But it's the behind-the-scenes folks that peaked my interest the most:
He's talking about executive producers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, who are also EPs on Fox's "Fringe" and CBS's "Hawaii Five-0" and wrote the most recent "Star Trek" movie. Josh Friedman, who was show runner on "Sarah Connor Chronicles," wrote the "Locke" pilot script and the director is Mark Romanek ("One Hour Photo").
JOSH FRIEDMAN! Kurtzman and Orci!
