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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I was frankly surprised they brought Sinqua back and featured him as much as they did this season what with the other series gig, so it was kind of a bonus. Though it's galling that Boyd got T-Dogged just as we were learning hints of backstory and seeing him be proactive in making strategic plans. And we were already running a significant deficit in the pretty+able to act department this season by trading Gage Golightly for Adelaide Kane and Colton for the Zoolander Twins; this development is Not Helping.
at least I'm glad that Lydia and Allison are both getting more agency this season (with actual sense-making motivations in the latter's case!), and that the Tylers seem to have stepped up their acting games somewhat.
Lydia's motivation/powers/story don't make much sense to me, but she's sharp and funny. Allison seemed to have more to do when she was dating Scott (or about to). But it's good that she showed up in Gramp's room. I am optimistic about her.
Oh, poor Jennifer. I still think of her as at-least-she's-better-than-Amelia, but LOW BAR.
At least with Jennifer the question is why did Derek get so uncharacteristically interested in her so fast, not how could anyone possibly be interested in her under any circumstances.
I was amused by the proposed #babyDerek hashtag, but I'm pedantic enough that I think it should properly be #puppyDerek.
Also the girl they had playing his young love interest was so very pretty.
She recurs on SPN.
I....I liked Talia. She is my favourite Hale.
I dislike Derek and Peter more.
Evil scheming lying Peter is my favorite Peter, honestly.
I think I'd like him better if the other Hales treated him like he was a bad guy. I get that if you're of a pack (and is he, technically? Sis? Is Derek their alpha?) that's a strong bond, but STOP TRUSTING HIM.
At this point I don't get the impression that Derek actually trusts him, so much as suffers his presence because he doesn't want to kill him again, and occasionally orders him to do something useful. As for Cora, I can't begin to guess what her views or motivations are since the text tells me NOTHING in this regard.
After rewatching last week's episode last night, I really want to know what Scott thought his division of labor would accomplish. Cora has been pretty much useless in conflicts with the alphas so far (when not an active hindrance/danger to her family), and putting Stiles and Lydia on scene is just giving the opposition two more helpless hostages. Meanwhile Scott, who actually can intermittently stand up to an alpha in combat, runs off to rescue Deaton from an enemy that that can use the supernatural effectively against even alpha werewolves and has so far only been successfully thwarted by Lydia's and Stiles' brains.
