There were some interviews with the cast of Harry Potter doing American Accents. I recall that the kid who plays Draco did the best.
Like any of that's enough to fight the Dark Master. Bator.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The growing problem with death in science fiction movies and TV shows
Doctor Who. Buffy. Lord Of The Rings. Torchwood. The Matrix. Being Human. Are they all contributors to the lessening impact of death in science fiction movies and TV shows?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Someone's apparently never seen Supernatural. It would be hard to top Dean's death count. The key is, like Joss said, to make death count, even if it's not going to be permanent. I think when done well, an impermanent death has ramifications, and that's what's important. Not the loss. The impact. Science fiction and fantasy means it doesn't have to be loss. But it should be impact. Unless it's Wolverine or a Cylon or something like that.

I don't know, when Jean Grey came back and they did the "Oh, that was a different Phoenix who died there," it kind of made the whole thing a bit less significant. The characters in the story may suffer, but at least for this reader, when a character dies, part of me says, "I wonder how they're going to weasel out of this one?"

Well, if she didn't really die, they undermine the impact, no?
