Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

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 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.

so -- Reaper - Has it occurred to anyone that Andi used the vessel? Sock and Ben have tried to use the vessel before and it hasn't worked. What does that mean? Is Andi bounty hunter eligible?

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.

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.

do we really believe that the devil can't see or hear in circle? i kind of feel like he's bullshitting to gain their confidence. He wants Sam to rat them out not because needs the information, but because he wants to corrupt Sam.

Really? I had assumed they'd done it before. And the scythe was pretty simple to "use."

Yeah, it's much better than when it started.

I wouldn't be surprised. Because right now, I'm sort of pleased by how they're not making the Devil look like a complete idiot. So far, he's impossible to pull one over.

Well, he obviously knows one of the demons that rebelled against him is regrouping there, so simple pragmatism would advise blasting the place whether or not he knows what's going on inside. I'm inclined to think that even if he can't perceive inside circles, his previously demonstrated ability to know any sinful thought entertained by anyone would cue him in on the deception and betrayal all the conspirators are planning the instant they step outside. He could probably arrange "accidents" for everyone involved, but having Sam spy on them is more fun.
