I am so psyched about Korra!!!!
I'm so happy that she looks like a total badass!
Mal: Well, you were right about this being a bad idea. Zoe: Thanks for sayin', sir.

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.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Remember way back when Fringe started, and people were complaining that Anna Torv couldn't act?
Funny. No one says that anymore ...
Now people are doing things like this. [link]

I've seen Wyman and others calling our newly possessed Olivia, "Bellivia". Heh.

So, on Being Human US, Nick Fenn... committed suicide by drowning himself and now relives that every day?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, fuck. They went a different kind of dark with the neighbourhood kid. I certainly wasn't expecting the reveal at the end with Herrick.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
No kidding. That is seriously messed up.

Not that Aidan isn't already terribly fucked up, but finding out that he gave up on the kid too soon would pretty much destroy him.

I do think the writing was on the wall (no pun intended) about Bernie. He might not have killed anyone yet, but he was clearly shown to have little self-control or understanding of why he should employ it. It was only a matter of time before he started slaughtering people, probably starting with his mother. What Aidan did was still necessary.

Compassionately intolerant
I'm totally with Matt.
Not that being turned is ever really a good thing, but for such a young human with even less impulse control...it can never work.
The same story, in the UK version ended differently. Much as I really, really prefer that one, the US ending was better.

I like that the US version of Being Human isn't afraid to go dark. It's not like Spike killing the Chosen One for a comedy beat. I'll be interested to find out if Herrick tells Aiden the truth, and am even more fascinated that Herrick was operating on faulty intel--he thought it was Aiden that turned Ben (no, I don't remember his name), right?
V--schedule freed up and I watched the last two episodes. Holy game-changers, Batman. I don't know if it makes it good, but it certainly makes it a bit more interesting. However, I missed something--what happened to the Aussie guy?

Art Crawl!!!
He disappeared.
I hope we get to see what happens next on V.
Yes, the thing is that Aidan did the right thing no matter what he thought had happened.
