I spent (probably way too much) time yesterday trying to figure out that silly Scarlet stuff, but it just ended up pissing me off. I think this little marketing trick is going to backfire. People don't like being made to feel stupid.

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.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I already have a big LG flatscreen, so there's nothing I can do.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
The...hell??
That explains why none of us had ever heard of it.

I don't get it either. I would've watched at least the first episode of the show, but I have no plans to buy a new TV, especially not a fancy flatscreen. My current cheapo set works just fine.
What's next? Deodorant ads disguised as car commercials?

Folks, just because there's no Scarlet in production now doesn't mean there won't be one in a year or two when development season rolls around. That horrible Caveman sitcom started as a bunch of idiotic Geico ads.

I like the ads, but I did not check out the show.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
So...IS there a show? Or is it one long advert? Because I saw a poster for it here in Bangkok the other day.

Huh. That didn't occur to me. Maybe Andi is part of the favor that the Devil is going to ask for later.
ETA: I was still watching the episode when I posted this. Poor Sam.

Art Crawl!!!
I wondered that too!
And since it's return - Reaper continues to be good. I'm glad that Tony is still around and I hope that they don't resolve this version of the rebellion as quickly as they did the last one.
