Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Yeah, guy definitely didn't look like a teenager (or someone who gets bullied and just takes it). Family accepted new brother/uncle Jedidiah WAY too easily. And guy caved and joined "Uncle Jed" WAY, WAY too easily. I could have bought it if he worked with the others to arrange to go as a spy, but just going to the "Uncle's" team 5 minutes after learning of/accepting his powers while barely able to use them? He better be about 100 IQ points less dumb than he seems so far pretty quickly or I'm out.
The no-kill thing is either really interesting or dumbest thing ever - it makes sense as a robotic law, and would make sense for these guys if they're made - but they're supposed to have evolved this way. WAY too vague to pass as evolutionary (as in askye's examples above).
We shall see.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I remember that from the original, FWIW.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Like I said, I don't recall much from the original series, but I do recall it being implied that the TPs' evolution was being Guided By Aliens. I don't recall the show ever making much sense, though.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade
If this is a hoax, it's a seriously elaborate one, so you decide: Nine Second Doctor episodes reported found. Scroll down to the update from Lance Parkin for the details.
ASSUMING this is true, we now have the complete Enemy Of the World serial(Troughton playing the title villain as well as the Doctor) and all but one of the Web Of Fear serial(Yeti in the Underground, first Lethbridge-Stewart). So hopefully DVD releases for both of those soon.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is that a confirmation of Tom Scola "Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon" Oct 6, 2013 12:53:57 pm PDT or even more shenanigans?

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade
ita ! I think it's confirmation, since the top of the article seems to reference that story.
And personally, I think 9 episodes is a more likely find than the 100+ someone claimed earlier this year.

Maybe it's just because I was expecting Tomorrow People to be awful, and it wasn't as bad as that. Although, I do agree that the lead looks way to old to be a teenager.
However, I am watching Once Upon a Time in Wonderland right now, which I was expecting to be really good, and, so far, I am not impressed.

where does Arrow film (I'm assuming Blue Bloods is in the city)?
Tom Selleck was on Letterman recently and said Blue Bloods films in New York.

Because books.
sj, are you talking about the original Once Upon a Time, or the new Wonderland?
