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.
I agree with these, and would probably incude Picture if You Will and My Three Crichtons on the list. And then I would list The Locket 2 or 3 more times, because, holy god.
I didn't mind "Picture if You Will" so much, but when an episode in which Ben Browder spends a significant amount of time running around wearing nothing but prosthetics can't pull me in for a rewatch, you know the story has to be pretty bad. And we are of one mind concerning the new dimensions of suckitude that "The Locket" discovered.

I kept wondering why his accent apparently got stronger the longer he lived away from his south'rn roots on that barren planet.
Well, there was a certain element of fannish squee of the J/A type associated with The Locket. If you squint a bit.
Thankfully, I didn't buy into it, but then I started watching the show with "Green Eyed Monster", by which point, well. I don't want to spoil Tommyrot.
I feel I should stick up for "My Three Crichtons", for reasons that have more to do with the way the writers tend to circle back to particular issues again and again, each time getting a bit more complex and wrinkly with them. M3C is just the second iteration of that particular issue. (If you count "Exodus from Genesis" the first, anyway...)

Oh, ha! I had forgotten about that.
Man, I feel like I want to do a whole rewatch now. But that's not happening any time soon. Too bad.

Because it scared away the mangy badger that was eating his face in "Jeramiah Crichton"?
And dear LORD do I love having Farscape talk again. If I was able to W&P without commercial breaks, I'd say tommyrot's induction would be a great time to do a Farscape W&P.
I know! The longer the strike went on, the more I was tempted to suggest a Farscape WnP. I didn't know how many other fans there were, lurking about out there.
I've only seen Seasons 1 and 2, and then random bits and bats from later seasons. Because the DVDs are
so bloody expensive.
And for some reason, I have yet to find them anywhere in Bangkok - even though they have all manner of obscure things out here. Grr.
Meanwhile - have
Pushing Daisies
and/or
Moonlight
completed a first-half-season thing? Whatever you call it? The thing you have where suddenly the season is interrupted for ages?
'Cause if so, I'm hoping I can find them on DVD somewhere here....

I was thinking of getting into
Farscape
years ago, but the cost deterred me (I hadn't seen any Farscape, so it seemed like too much of a gamble). But then season 1 came out on iTunes for $39.99, so I downloaded that. Then I bought season 2 from Amazon for $79.99 (it's $149.99 retail). Fay, can you get it from iTunes or Amazon where you are?

You used to be able to get the season box sets for close to $20 cheaper at Deep Discount (IIRC), but I don't know if that's still the case.
I can't really stick up for The Locket on any kind of objective level, but it made me cry. A lot. So I can't hate it.
