it was bad; it might have been Latin.

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.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh -- as long as we're on the Science Channel, they're running a series of science-gone-wrong-or-at-least-awry 'recreated dramas' called Dark Matters -- with John Noble as the presenter with his really lush voice intoning the narrative.

Snerk.
And...don't give them any ideas.

TWD: The Governor's town may be eviiiiile, but at least they're listening to me about the possibility of zombie traps -- solar-powered noise-makers with conveniently placed pits dug nearby.

Yeah, I was all "Dark Matters?!" That looks spicy!
bonny, one would hope they would be smarter than that. HOPE.
Theo, shouldn't that be Eville? "Welcome to Woodbury, a.k.a Eville!"
And yep, that's a pretty damn smart idea, even if yanno...eville.

Heh. Yes, from now I vote we call it Eville.
I'm kind of disappointed that Carol's death was off-screen. The character deserved a better farewell than that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am pretty sure I saw something in the previews for next week that cast a question on Carol's death.
I don't think there's any reason to assume that no body == death ever, especially in a show like this which is fairly porny about death (although somewhat shyer about the ladies). At the very least, no body=questions about death.

Hmm. I think I assumed pretty much the same as ita !, that since we didn't see the death on-screen, just the damned scarf, there's always a chance she's alive. I mean, I'm unspoiled for the comics, but no body of supporting secondary character for 3 years = we will see her again, dead or alive.
Although...why dig a damn grave? A marker, for sure, but there was a grave, a filled in, full-sized hole, right? Why do that if you're only planting a marker? Don't have time to re-watch; on a work-break. Hmm.
If Carol died for reals off-screen and we didn't see her damned shot in the head zombie body, I will be pissed, too. Anyone can die, I get that. But if it's a character I've come to know, I want to see it.

I completely failed to get that that zombie had eaten Lori's body. Admittedly I was eyerolling something awful when it came to Rick. I don't begrudge the character his grief, but that was way boring for me.
The Governor and his daughter...MOTHERFUCKER. That shit was the sickest thing I've seen yet. So damaged, so dangerous.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Oh, Fringe. Damn. Just... damn. All three of the leads are breaking my heart.
Anyone else wonder if the child Observer grew up to be September?
Was there ever a point at which you felt she'd left the show?
Nope.
Some people have so much invested in being the clever cynical one, they don't pause and think things through.
Yep.
