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.
Haven: Did Nathan sleep with her in the past? Is the implication he's the Colorado Kid's father? I couldn't tell if that was a "fade to black" or just a suggestion-free scene transition
This was exactly my thought when Nathan got that arrested look on his face when Audrey mentioned that Sarah had a son.
Interesting.
It was nice to see Chief Warnos again. The entire series, I've been waiting for someone to drag that cooler out from some shed somewhere and reconstitute him.
I loved him on DaVinci's Inquest and Republic of Doyle. His appearances in the latter left me to think he had suffered a stroke of some sort, but I can't find any news to that effect. He looked a little rough in the most recent Haven, but at least he seemed healthy.
Fringe: Peter is giving up his humanity, and apparently now his hair, Walter gave up pieces of his brain--are we to consider that Olivia has given up Etta? Her childhood? What is her loss? And when's the last time they mentioned cortexiphan?
Olivia definitely lost her childhood to cortexiphan. I think Etta is considered a loss for all of them. I'm upset that neither Olivia's sister or her niece have been mentioned in this future. I want to know what happened to them. Or do we already know and I missed it?
Olivia has lost so many things, but in terms of what she's given up? Early in the series (maybe even the pilot) she said she just wanted things to go back to normal (and not have to know about ZFT and the fringe events). I guess she gave up the concept of normal. Although I'm not certain she's completely given it up. The same idea has been addressed in her insecurities about starting a relationship with Peter and about having children. She's not optimistic, but she still wants it.
I think with Olivia it's more about what she's taken on than what she's given up. Ever since she accepted the job with Fringe division she has taken on the responsibility for... everything. She may not always think she'll succeed, but she as sure as hell will do her best.
Cortexiphan was last mentioned at the end of last season. Olivia being all dosed up was pretty key to a lot of the plot points.
I'm upset that neither Olivia's sister or her niece have been mentioned in this future. I want to know what happened to them. Or do we already know and I missed it?
I don't think we know anything. Nina would probably be the one to share that info.
Did her sister exist in the world without Peter timeline? I thought she didn't.

Haven: Did Nathan sleep with her in the past? Is the implication he's the Colorado Kid's father? I couldn't tell if that was a "fade to black" or just a suggestion-free scene transition.
I think it was left purposefully vague. The possible father, to me, seem to be Nathan, one of the newspaper men, or the man who sent them back in time in the first place.

Well, yeah, of course. But has it come up this season? Now that they don't need to turn on lightbulbs or jump between dimensions, does it have any impact on the plot line? Since it's been so important for the arc and what connected Olivia and Walter's pasts, now that they're deliberately winding down and tying everything off, I'm wondering if it's going to be relevant.
Someone's been skimming!
Well, it's twenty to midnight on a Saturday night, and I am up working (mostly) with no prospect of going to bed soon, so... yeah.
(Sorry!)
