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.
What I want to know is, where did the kindly black lady get an inhaler? Her son's yeah, but it's been 15 years since blackout. Nobody is manufacturing new inhalers for asthma without power, and whatever the kid had back 15 years ago is long expired.
But yeah, not as distracting as the low-rise pants and the perfect hair. So irritating. While I did not think much of a Charlie actress, a practical non-fashionista wardrobe and hair in a braid would have made me a lot less annoyed.
the kindly black lady is obviously "in the know" though since she had one of those doohickeys and could make her power come back on. so maybe she's connected to people still making things like inhalers.
can't believe i'm talking about this show. it was stupid and boring.
Um, maybe whatever magic maguffin killed electricity also killed dental caries?
I haven't even seen the show yet but I can already tell that at least half the fun for me is poking holes in the scenario.

Watch for the flat-spinning passenger jets with the
nav-lights still shining.
Still, it has Giancarlo Esposito, and it is fun to watch what he can do with a character who can be either charming or scary or both.

Oh, yeah! And from a physics point of view, wouldn't the planes keep going forward for a while, rather than dropping like rocks? After all, they would have had pretty impressive forward momentum...
Also, the way the lights went out in a very orderly progression across the landscape & the globe. That was definitely a case of someone sacrificing logic in favor of drama. Pretty, but stupid.
TCG mentioned that all the nuclear power plants would eventually melt down when the electric cooling systems stop working.
I hope I don't get dinged for ahemming, but it seems I haven't had Sy Fy for the week I was gone--did Time Warner get in a fight or something?
Sheeit. I gotta call folk.

I will post a reply to this and some of the other points in spoilers. But not now.

The cores would melt, but they probably wouldn't have the release of radiation Fukushima had, because there are manually operated pressure relief valves that the operators couldn't get to because of the earthquake damage. Of course, since the laws of physics have gone insane, perhaps there would be no decay heat.
