'Serenity'
Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
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.

Thrive to spite them
Susan was the First Companionn, really. She and the Doctor are in London and Susan is going to school there. Two of her teachers, Barbara Wright and Ian Chesterton are puzzled by her because she knows a lot about certain subjects but gets confused about the currency and current events. So they follow her and end up in the TARDIS and Susan, Barbara, Ian and the Doctor go on adventures.
The first years it was supposed to be partially educational so there are "history" trips through Earth's past along with more sci fi stuff. Like they go to Roman times and to the Aztecs and to Marco Polo and the Crusades (although the last two adventures didn't survive on tape).

The end of Vikings would have been more compelling if those snakes in the pit hadn't really obviously been non-poisonous boa constrictors and pythons.
Still, I was a bit surprised they disposed of Earl Haraldson so fast. (And what was his name, anyway, other than Son of Harald?)
As for Ragnar, the very first thing he should have done was marry off Siddy and her daughter to two of his supporters, so they would owe him. Leaving them alone for Rollo to snap up was just bad politics.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I saw that, Tom! I'm so excited! It's one of my favorite books of the last decade.

That should be cool. I'm really interested in who will be cast.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yeah, I just read the whole comments section of that article, which was casting suggestions. I dunno.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm confused because I thought they already announced they were doing a miniseries last year. That was part of the reason I finally read it! I'm looking forward to the miniseries.

I have the horrible mental image of Speaker-to-Animals being rendered by the same SFX people who were to blameresponsible for the Garfield movies.
