Mal ,'Shindig'
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.
My investment isn't huge in either direction. I'll just be a bit sad looking for Torchwood elsewhere.
No real logic to that I suppose. Though, I'm worried about what it means that the Beeb isn't carrying it anymore. And that it's going to the channel that makes stuff I really don't like. But, that's a conversation for another day and place.
I don't think we can reasonably expect that every Torchwood fan here is going to subscribe to Starz. Which means either nothing but spoiler font in here, or discussing it in Premium.

It means that Starz offered more money. BBCA is part of BBC Worldwide, and as such the channel is legally forbidden under UK law from recieving "dibs" on any BBC content, and must be treated like any other 3rd party broadcaster. (In practice, this does create conflict between the parts of the business who sell BBC content TO 3rd party broadcasters and the parts of the business who ARE 3rd party broadcasters, but that's why the new office is big enough to separate them by about a quarter of a city block.)
It really is an unprecedented event in Buffistadom Topic Classification, isn't it?
Not really. It's only weird because it was in here before. But True Blood is technically Boxed Set material, and has been discussed in Premium without a hitch.
but I think that's the point though, ita. that it is a series that started off in one thread and then discussion of the most recent season is moved to another thread (not counting anything from natter).
I'm not sure why tv producers don't think of the buffistas when they make programming decisions. It's really inconvenient.

Right???
I am now picturing some put-upon TV exec wandering the halls forlornly, crying "won't someone think of the buffistas?" to an uncaring world.

Seriously.
And, thanks for that Jessica. I was worried that TW hadn't performed well enough for the Brits. Knowing that it was a bidding issue makes sense.
Vampire Diaries: Am I being over PC and such in calling Damon a rapist? I thought it was pretty clear that he was getting favours from the women against their will by compelling them. The minute they want to disassociate from him and he glamours them and they stay and kiss him and do anything else, he's sexually assaulted them at the very least, no?
No, I think you're accurate. I take it someone is taking offense?

Absolutely.
