Giles ,'Beneath You'
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.
ita,
I cannot remember the character's name in the novels any longer, and there were more people of color as part of Rick's crew in the novels than there have been on tv - and, might I add, given more to do - but he was a serious, able-bodied Black man who was generally level-headed and took over the leadership position and did a decent job.
Not exactly T Dogg, in other words.
In the comics, T-Dog is named Tyreese, and he's one of my favorite characters, and he has a really interesting relationship with Rick, and he doesn't really have much in common with T-Dog except for being black and favoring melee weapons over guns.
that's one of the reasons I have been upset with the tv's portrayal of T-Dogg.
Yeah, it was a wasted opportunity, in retrospect.
Well casting was bad. They had a weak actor in the role that set up the impossibility the character could achieve greater. Can you imagine if they had cast Andre Braugher? Michael Kenneth Williams? Harold Perrineau in the role? Can you imagine?
Harold Perrineau already has experience yelling the name of a lost child!
Arrow: The Royal Flush Gang?
What, they're on the show? I love those guys.
spoiler-y link for The Walking Dead casting. i'm...confused.
I swear I had stuff to say about Arrow, but I forgot it all.
I loves me some Digg. And Tommy Merlyn (who is the only character for whom I feel compelled to use his full name).
And I think Tamoh Penikett (whose name I almost certainly misspelled) was in the previews for the next episode. That would be cool.
