Once Upon A Time this week was predictable but really enjoyable. As far as I'm concerned every episode should center around Rumplestilskin.

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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I saw that pilot for "Three Inches" and man is that just way too similar to "Alphas." I kind of like the people's powers in 3I better, but they criminally underused Tosh. They hit similar themes though between the shows and I have to say: that show could have been a lot better with David Straitharn.
I didn't think 3I was that bad, but it needed bigger conflict. I liked the lead actor though. he'd be perfect for the Simon part in a US "Misfits."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I haven't seen the pilot, but what I read about it didn't make me even curious, despite Naoki and Julian and James. And that's takes a lot of generated disinterest.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
The acting is really good! Surprisingly so. The only part of it that was WAY overdone was the mother, but if they limited her screentime, this would have been a perfectly serviceable series.

Did you like it better than the L&O:Hogwarts pilot?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
LOL.
I am watching that now. I am about 10 minutes in and it is a STRUGGLE. I had to stop and watch Colbert.

OMG. 17th precinct is terrible. I don't think I will finish it.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Andi and I gave up on 17th Precinct after a bit.

There's a nice twist at the very very end of 17th Precinct, but other than that it was feh.
