I think I may need to arrange all my copies of Dracula to make a fort to hide in during this show.

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.

Because books.
Oh! That makes sense now, in, uh, context.
Jilli, I'm not a diehard Dracula fan -- I'm not sure I've ever read the book the whole way through. And the Order of the Dragon means nothing to me! Should it? (i.e. I don't remember it from any of the movies I've seen.)

Wasn't Vlad Dracul the head of the Order of the Dragon?

I'm only a few minutes into the episode and already I am sad.
What? There aren't enough Graysons in prime time? (Revenge)
Why? JRM with an American accent. Massive waste.
Whuh? I get that phone numbers are all 555s, but what is up with the number papers called "The Inquisitor".
More than anything, I hope the accent is a dodge and will wear off soon. It's not bad, but seems purposefully grating.

Vlad, the actual historical Vlad, was a member of the Order of the Dragon, which was a chivalric organization dedicated to fighting Christian heretics.

Oh, I see, so it's the Blacklist for the last century.
Can it get any more derivative?
Sad now.

OH MY G-D THAT WAS HORRIBLE. But Pete, the StuntHusband, and my older brother were entertained by my yelling at the TV, so it was a win?

'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 feel sure Jilli's reaction is far more entertaining from the show, even just on the screen here.

Oh yes, unless I misunderstood his speech to Renfield, he said that 400 years ago the Order used to murder and pillage and rape and burn people alive "as they screamed for a God that never came.
And he's against this? Without the context I'd have assumed that was fond reminiscing.
