I would think "unknowing" would increase your chance of being fridged. OK - only in the real world. In superhero land being kept ignorant actual provides protection.
Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

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.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I saw my first Almost Human poster yesterday, and oh, please let this not suck. Urban is clearly a friend of the people and deserves great success, and who doesn't want to look at Michael Ealy? Lili Taylor? Other people who are probably very nice and I care much less about right now?
I do remember hearing scathing things about the premise, but little on the actual show itself. Any facts or opinions?
It's created by Joel Wyman (Fringe show runner). That's enough to pique my interest.

Oh yeah? I'd better check that out.

I'm still a week behind on OUAT, but I'm imagining the writers room.
"We've set up all these characters with abandonment issues. Now what?"
"Let go to Neverland!"

I am also a week behind, but, totally.
Could the deer be foreshadowing a Bambi tie-in somehow? Could just be random Snow White is Friend to Woodland Creatures, I suppose.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
The deer, apparently, just wandered onto the set while they were filming. This is what Tumblr tells me.

I was wondering about that deer!

Mulan's unrequited love for Princess Aurora makes me a little bit uneasy. On the one hand, good on them for adding TehGay at all. On the other, the one lesbian is the woman who goes around in armor, wielding a sword and basically filling roles normally reserved for men in her universe, and it still has to be tragically unrequited and apparently hopeless.
Enjoyed the episode overall.

Also, Prince Charming really should not be keeping his poisoning a secret. If nothing else, they should know so their tactics can allow for the possibility that he could be out of action in as little as a few days. I know this multiverse has no logic fairy, but I really wish important plot points would not turn on characters stupidly withholding information from one another.
