You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I love Gary. I think I'm in it just for him.

“Not dead yet!”

Ditto.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I like also that there's serious backstory that we only find out about in passing, instead of having characters give bland info dumps about.

Having Aphasic Girl be a mastermind was really cool and unexpected.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Re: Eureka, first of all BOOOOO. But second of all, I was at a meeting at the Military Industrial Complex yesterday, and every time anyone referred to GE, I heard "GD."

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Warehouse 13: What ended up happening to Jack and Claire? We know, I think, but I forgot.

I vaguely remember that Pete and Mika found Jack's body while on a search for an artifact, and had to interview Claire - and they were able to let her know how he died. I also vaguely remember a ring, that they found in his stuff, that they gave her.

As for Eureka - I said it on Facebook, but I will say it again here - I don't know whether I am more pissed off that Syfy canceled it, or grateful that we got as much of it as we have. It's a good show, and deserves more time.

This episode with Zoe and Jo - I loved it. I loved that they did not gloss over the pain Jo and Zack caused Zoe, but I love even more that Zoe had a better-than-predictable response.

I'm only pissed at Sigh.Fie. (thank you Dork Tower) in as much as they seemed to handle the cancellation in such an asshatted way. It gave me flashbacks to the Farscape cancellation. Otherwise, they gave the show a better than decent run, and I'm glad Colin got some chances to direct as well.

The status is NOT quo.

Hey, semi-good news! Eureka is getting one more episode to wrap things up: [link]

Obviously not as good as a 6th season would have been, but still. Something.

Yeah. Five seasons! That's great!

Art Crawl!!!

Glad that they're getting a wrap-up episode. And uh, I agree that the cancellation was really mishandled.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It seems to be par for the course. See: Farscape, Stargate SG-1 being notified of the cancellation just as they were having their 200th episode party, SGA cancellation being announced immediately prior to the SGU announcement, etc.

I assume that at least any plans to have Carter and Allison disassembled for a cliffhanger have been averted.
