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.
The bondage arrow is nowhere near as iconic as the boxing glove, but it is pretty ridiculous.
Man Kelly Hu is sharp and cool and stuff, but I had hopes for her stunt work. With all that conveniently falling long-established wig, it's either the worst job of an actress doing her own stunts, or...SOP.
Ming-Na Wen is doing a good job, and when (if) they stunt her out, it's well handled. Buffy was AWFUL, Jennifer Garner was great (better than the script, for sure), Gina Torres also very good.
I admit I zone out during the island scenes so I don't know if his fling there is competent. At least she can walk right, which is more than I can say for the female hunter on SPN last night.
On the boy side, I can't translate Colton to anyone who fights heroically, but that problem is before the the stunts.
Outside the genre, last night's NCIS had action, and they're all so bad. Jethro is supposed to be master badassed, but no.
I want good action! Gimme good action! I keep thinking it should be easier than the acting, but that's silly. I guess, though, I've at least taught people to move unstupidly, even if that has nothing to do with stuntwork.
So White China and the Hood are free next week? That makes the cops look weak, man.
Tomorrow People was below "Eh" grade. I may check back in a couple weeks, but I can't see this being a Wednesday night regular viewing for me.

Right? Except I thought that was supposed to be Black Canary in the previews, not China White. (Really, all I could see was tight black outfit, white/platinum hair. But I thought the preview's text said something about Black Canary...or that might have been wishful thinking on my part.)

Just one boxing glove arrow is all I ask. Or a snarky reference to one, or one lying on a table in the workshop.
A city under siege. A canary uncaged.
Right! That. (Man, my memory SUCKS.)
Typed it as it came up on the screen or I wouldn't have been able to remember it!
Would Reign belong in here as a semi-AU? Or am I the only one who liked Marie Antoinette enough to even think about watching this show?
It's modern-ish in music and dress. I guess it depends on where you draw the line between Actual AU and Just Bad At History.
Hm. While that's an interesting question, I'm not going watch Reign so I can offer an opinion...
