Hey, did someone post a link from i09 in here for the pilot of Precinct 17 (or whatever it was called -- the Ron Moore thing). I happened to spy it in the right hand column when I was reading something else over there. It was interesting. I'd have watched! But, then, I'm not really a hard sell on that sort of thing.
None of it means a damn thing.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Oh, OK, from Amy's post in Natter, that links to an article with a link to the 17th precinct unaired pilot, I guess it was just a recent thing. And the hospital is either not letting me link to it, or it's gone already.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Don't tell anyone, but Precinct 17: [link]

"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
Ha! "And now my interstellar death-ray will probably be used as an instrument of war."
When I saw the blurb about Tesla's work being weaponized, my immediate thought was "The peace-loving genius who allegedly invented a death-ray for the US government and caused an earthquake in Manhattan in 1898? How dare they pervert the intent of his work like that!" Glad to see the show hung a lampshade on the irony.

OMG. That was good. Thank you, ita.
I wish we were going to see more of that show.
Chuck: so excited to have Tim DeKay on the show. Too bad that Matthew Bomer wasn't in this episode too.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I liked it, although it did really feel like Just Another Police Procedural, magic notwithstanding. But the magic elements were cool enough, and the ending was pretty sweet. Also, the music supervisor clearly likes Massive Attack.
Chuck: Has Sarah ever been into crazy acrobatics? That opening scene was badass, but it didn't feel like Sarah's fighting style. I actually liked the backstory stuff, though mostly I'm glad that Sarah's not pregnant. Secret Hungarian sister/heir to a fortune, that's at least something new.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Oooh. This may answer the question of what to watch this afternoon. Thank you, ita.
