Started watching Being Human US, and I quite like it. Has potential. I need to stop comparing the performances to the UK version (particularly Sam Witwer, who I don't think is nearly as good as Aidan Turner), but if it can become its own show, it could work. I like the decision to set it in Boston.
If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

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.

Seska,
I hope you can do that because I didn't succeed. I am not sure if I will watch the latest SyFy ep or not. It does not help that I am watching the new UK version along side the US version.

I'm more intrigued by the US Being Human than I thought I'd be -- it helps that I really like Witwer.
What's really strange is that my TiVo insists that both versions go into the same folder, now that the UK version is running on Saturday nights. That's more than a bit confusing!

I know! My tivo does the same: so picky about some things and yet, this?

The Brigadier's opinion of Captain Jack would be amusing. And Jack trying to impress the Brigadier would be equally amusing.

I'm finally watching The Cape because my DVR is running out of storage space, and I kind of like it. It's cheesy and the dialogue is occasionally awful, but I still enjoy it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm enjoying The Cape. I tend to have it on while I'm doing something else rather than really watch it attentively, but it has some fun moments.
