Some actors really like playing villains. (often they're some of the nicest people you'll meet). I expect tho that their ability to find empathy for the bad characters seduces the writers and creators.
This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

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.

I always figured that anyone who plays villains a lot gets all their evil impulses out on the screen (or stage), leaving them with nothing but niceness when they're off. I've heard that Boris Karloff was a charming man in real life.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Yay. I will watch that once I finish something (I need a reward system).

Poor Fargo.
I'm glad that storyline is over. It was very clever, but I can't say I liked watching Jo and Henry be all evil.

This. Also, Beverly has a helluva sense of vengeance.

She does. Not that she did not deliberately murder innocents in the first season.

And poor Holly. Though, I'm going to convince myself that she survived but with a changed personality, disappeared, took on a new identity and the name of "Charlie".

And stupid. The surrounding world and all information about it in the siimulation was under the programmers' control, so why be so obvious and out-of-character in trying to keep the Astraeus crew from doing things they logically would?
Also, why would Jo put on the big seduction act for Carter when they were both supposed to be computer-generated NPCs? Were the glitches and memory problems because Senator Wen's cohorts were running subplots for their own entertainment apart from the stuff that interacted with the real people?
