Oh my god, I laughed FOREVER. I love it when they do that.
Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

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.

TARDIS Eruditorum, which has been analyzing all the episodes, starting with Unearthly Child, has just reached the premiere of the new series. The "Rose" essay clocks in at a lean 13,000 words. He's also been known to talk about other shows relevant to our interests.

Yeah I love Orphan Black too. Seem to me to be doing everything right - little as well as big things. For example revealing back story with in character dialog:
Sarah: "You were the one who introduced me to Punk".
Mrs S (with a sigh): "You picked up all of the attitude and none of the politics."
Or the musical choices. I think the choice of a German version of "These boots are made for walking" when Sarah was faking being the German was brilliantly appropos though I could not for the life of me make an argument why.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
and the most recent one ended with a slow montage over "Ooh Child" (used incredibly literally with shots of surrogate parents telling their grown children that it was going to get easier).
I am evil. I LOL'd and @@ when that song came on.
I think I will dive into Orphan Black tonight, given the glowing reviews.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Even if I didn't like Arrow I would have to keep watching it for the guest stars. Alex Kingston, JAR, and so many other interesting actors!

Grimm: I'm catching up on the two most recent episodes, and these are the worst bunch of monster fighters on TV. They have all known that Juliet has been going through something awful for weeks, and they're not getting together and trying to find a way to help her?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Her habit of demanding help/information and then shrieking at them and storming away 30 seconds after they start trying may have something to do with that.

Yes, definitely, but in between cases, you think that they would at least be talking about it, seeing if there was some kind of potion or such to help while they leave Juliet alone.
