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.
This piece about the new Merlin show says that the guy playing Merlin was on Doctor Who. Is he from seasons 3 or earlier? Do you guys recognize him?
Episode 4x10
Also, I must be getting old, because yet another barely-legal waif-boy leaves me all "meh", but the thought of Tony Head as Uther... where did I leave that bunk?
amych - I want them to cast Kristine Sutherland as Ygrainne.
Maybe the secret compartment was originally sealed off & unused because it's full of toxic fumes that makes people crazy enough to think Baltar is the Messiah.
The knit crocheted (look, I don't really know anything about crafting, all right?) version of the, err, thing, on Doctor Who 4x01
Oh, that's
freakin' adorable!! I think I have to check back for the pattern
.
Torchwood: Ha. Dana is a taunty mctaunterperson, but with restraint. However, I do not mind this, because, Ianto!
BSG 4.01: I think there's still some room for wiggle as far as the final four go. And Tigh definitely is a baffler as far as that goes.
I do remember reading or hearing that Ron Moore, heh, has a plan - well, plausible explanation, I guess - for Tigh as Cylon. I'm kind of an RM fangirl, so I'm hopeful that it will let me keep my eyes in my head where they belong instead of rolling out the door.
So. Caprica. Is that going to be Ron Moore and David Eick again? I read a linked article in here at some point, but I can't remember whether it's both of them again or not.
Also, I must be getting old, because yet another barely-legal waif-boy leaves me all "meh", but the thought of Tony Head as Uther... where did I leave that bunk?
I have to agree with amych. Also, I'm seized with the need to shout out that Uther, you know, DIED when Arthur was quite young. Which means that ASH wouldn't be around nearly long enough onscreen to satisfy me.
And what's with Merlin and Arthur being contemporaries? If they feel the need to rewrite the story, why not just give him a companion and leave the Merlin figure (mentor/magician) alone?
I think they waited until the Final 5 were in place before they attacked.
To tie everything in to Helo, because that's still fun: if Helo hadn't given up his seat to Baltar, he wouldn't have been on Caprica when Starbuck came for the Arrow of Apollo. And then Starbuck wouldn't have lost her Raider, gotten stuck on Caprica, run into the resistance, and subsequently brought Anders to the fleet.
All of which is to say: I think it's fate, not a plan.
Jessica -- Oh totally; it's only the FF that I think are older. (Though I will quibble that I honestly don't think the Cylons have ever said anything about how long the seven known models have been around.)
I just popped out of almost falling asleep and decided that I wanted Lee to be the final Cylon, and then found out that's where almost everyone else's money is over at TWoP. Poo, that most likely means it won't be true. I was just imagining all the fun that could be had with Roslin/Lee, Starbuck/Lee, Adama/Lee, and then I thought of the crazy crazy fun that might happen with Gaius/Lee and ChipSix telling him that Lee is a Cylon, the Krazy Kult overhearing Gaius' repetition and thinking it a declaration from God and getting out their pitchforks and then maybe Gaius saves Lee from the mob, only to die himself, and Roslin airlocks Lee's ass, and Kara caps Roslin, and Zarek becomes president, and then Lee comes back and nukes all their asses... And maybe before all the death and stuff Anders and Lee could have some fun romps and escapades and bonding over their Cylonosity.
Um, sleep, now, yes? Okay.
