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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I have the book and have been reading it. Really good writing style.

I haven't seen The Sopranos, The Shield, or 24, so I would skip those chapters.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Abrams told Braun that there wasn't quite enough there for a series, but suggested that "The island has to be a character in the show, and something's wrong with the island." Braun agreed, so long as Abrams promised to keep things in the realm of "scientific fact" and have an explanation for everything.
Hahahaha!
I know a lot of shows have tried to be the next Lost, but I kind of feel like Revolution is. Not necessarily in business terms, but in the storytelling and style (and logic). Giancarlo Esposito is totally the Locke of the series.
