I still have one episode to watch of In The Flesh and am still intrigued.
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

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.

Can the show take the humour?
Maybe turning it into a spoof of itself would be the best (or, perhaps, only?) way to make it entertaining?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Hmm I had given up on Revolution. Are you guys saying Edlund is going to be writing?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I wound up mainlining Revolution on Hulu, and really digging it. It's still dumb, but I like it. You just have to assume they're in an alternate universe where electricity works the way they say it does.

The status is NOT quo.
I really enjoy Revolution. I hand wave the science.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Revolution lost me. I just couldn't care enough about any of the characters.

The physics-defying future where nothing technological works except curling irons, fashion manufacturing, and the tools necessary for cosmetic dentistry work lost me before I had a chance to get to know any of the characters.

I'm in the Scola camp, alas.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The big draw in the Kripke show I do love is character, and I have enough TV shows being watched that if no one stood out in my first watch then it's not similar lightning in a bottle to his last go round and I'm with Scola and Theo--initially no one to hang on to, too many other shows higher on the list and I didn't check again.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I haven't yet caught up on everything that's aired since the hiatus, but I did love Miles. Mostly because he was always right.
