'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
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.
What's the word on "Scarlet"? The fact that it's being promoted as "from the Director of Smallville and Supernatural" doesn't exactly inspire confidence.
David Nutter? He directs everything!
And, yeah, I just saw an ad in EW, but I hadn't heard of it at all.
What the fuck? How can the trailer describe it as "the hit new TV series" if it hasn't even come out yet and no one really knows what the fuck it's about?
I laughed out loud when I saw that, Polter-Cow. It looks awful, to me. Which probably means it'll get 231 million viewers.
Supernatural has had some well-directed episodes, so it's not like a total downcheck.
I don't know that even Smallville would be a black mark, given the writing and acting liabilities he'd have been saddled with.
TV Directors don't exactly distinguish themselves, though, even when they're brilliant. The medium's just like that. If a show is brought to me by a director I like, I'm not sure what that says about the show. Will this named director be directing them all? Very unlikely. So if they're going to be acting in some other capacity, the fact that they've done directing I like might be quite irrelevant.
there's going to be a season three but it's going to be more like SJA?
What do you mean by "more like SJA"?
Dudes, David Nutter is like God of the Pilots. The man does good work.

I don't even know what it looks like because I don't know what the fuck it's about! She's a famous movie star...who has one red eye? And knows martial arts? Or something?
Ausiello is reporting that SCC was renewed.
plus BAG has been made a regular! woo!!

Yep, that also made me laugh. The whole thing was hilarious, in a car crash way. They should have called the show "WTF?"

That was my point. They could have said "from the Director of BtVS" and I would have been just as amused.
In re: Starbuck and Sam's encounter, a little "frak" goes a long way. That got really silly IMO.
So it's not just me, then. Honestly, I know the word "frak" has been picked up in pop culture so apparently a lot of people like it, but I think it is so overused in the show to the point that it throws me out of my concentration every time I hear it. It's like this entire civilization has developed throughout multiple planets and with space travel and technological wonders .... and only bothered to come up with one curse word. Farscape did so much better with that.
