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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Lost Girl: Hale seems to be the brightest of the bunch. Bringing the Naga and Trick together is very sensible given the enemy being faced. And who else both has and uses brains in the bunch?
Bo? Dumb as a post. Kenzie? probably very bright, but between the alcoholism, the kleptomania, and the impulsiveness, she does not use her intelligence enough. Dyson? probably not all that bright, but at any rate the extreme emo gets in the way of using any brains he has much of the time. Trick? Deep knowledge, an endless bag of tricks, but in any situation where he can't simply pull something from that bag of tricks it takes someone else to come up with an answer - often Kenzie. Lauren? Brilliant at fictional science and medicine, seems otherwise clueless in the face of life's problems.
Of course Hale was all "you slept with my sister? You monster!" even though Hale was wingman when Dyson slept with a bunch of other people's sisters. I'll put that down to macho fratboy-like fae male culture rather than actual stupidity. How that fits in with the Glaive's lecture on how feminist friendly Fae culture is, I don't know. Of course she did not actually say they had gender equality, just that women were occasionally allowed to step into men's roles. Which is not the same thing.
Completely unrelated to any of this--is Derek the only werewolf who's less hairy when he's wolfed up?
Isaac also goes smooth-browed when wolfing out for some reason.
It's really an odd decision in Derek's case - with Tyler Hoechlin's eyebrows they wouldn't even have to do anything with makeup. (Hilariously one poster at TwoP remarked that half the time when she thought Derek was wolfed out she'd realize that was just how Hoechlin looks normally.)
They are the least hairy werewolves in all of history. It kinda sorta makes sense when it's an Actual Teenaged Werewolf, a little, but really....
Also, doesn't submitting story ideas automatically and legaly strike them from being airable?
Not if the rules stipulate that the person who submits the idea certifies that it is their original idea and that they release all rights to the idea or anything derived from it.
Typo,
Nothing to add to your reactions of Lost Girl. I'm waiting until y'all get to the finale because I hated it so much I still want to talk about it and spit hot fire.
Oh, fun!
I am genuinely looking forward to that.
Le Nubian spitting fire will be entertaining. Maybe more than the show. It is definitely junk food, but I'm not sure what kind of junk. It is not like Smallville or Vampire Diaries where one watches for the pretty pretty people. I mean they are good looking enough, but but not on that level. But I'm into it for reasons I don't totally understand. Kenzie is a great character, even is she is not handled right, and Hale is generally pretty good. They can all act except Anna Silk.
Part of it is I think that the writing is better than it seems. Hmm not exactly what I mean. OK, some aspects of the writing are suprisingly good. A lot of stuff is made clear without ever being said explicitly and other things are done well at the same time that much of the writing is godawful It is as though really talented skilled writers were being forced to collaborate with unskilled hacks. And the hacks were in charge, but the good writers slipped in decent writing part of the time.
I'm not as up on the Ponds. I remember when Rose took the core of the Tardis into her, and ended the threat of that season. We had DoctorDonna get our asses out of the clinch. Martha did the walk around the world to get everyone to think dobbyDoctor back into good condition. What are Amy and Rory's equivalents? I mean, I know Rory waited, for instance, but all that sticks with me is him waiting for Amy. I really haven't rewatched Eleven anywhere near as much.
Amy remembered and brought the Doctor back to the universe.
Then, because Moff's a troll and named the episode The Big Bang, she went and honeymooned on the TARDIS and between Amy, Rory, and the TARDIS herself, River Song came into being.
Why did the Who stuff suddenly come in? Did I miss something?
