I'm watching the first couple of episodes of The Tick, and I'd forgotten how awesomely funny it was. Apocalypse Cow! Giving Jimmy Carter a concussion! Patrick Warburton's adorable blue antennae!
I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
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 just saw an ad for SyFy's "Helix" which premieres in 2014. I didn't know/forgot that Ron Moore is behind this program. My enthusiasm for the show has just dropped precipitously. The ad also didn't make the show look very good.
Man.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Javi is also on it, though, so I may check it out.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Sleepy Hollow, a small town of 144,000 (perhaps they're counting the dead-but-still-walking-around, the dead-but-in-a-kind-of-purgatory, and ghosts, as well as the horsement) in the State of Handwavia.

So I saw the first two episodes of Sleepy Hollow yesterday. Still not quite sure why everyone loves it so much, but it was moderately entertaining.
Except then we watched the entire run of The Tick (Live action version), and I nearly died laughing.

The Tick is such an amazing show (both versions). While I've enjoyed what Ben Edlund's added to Angel and Supernatural, I wish he'd get back into full-on comedy, especially with some genre trappings.
(Maybe he could join Sleepy Hollow? A girl can dream.)

Sleepy Hollow sort of reminds me of the better Highlander episodes (those involving Methos, mostly), with the flashbacks and the snark and the required handwaviumTM. Abbie's better than anyone in HL, though. Also, the head Freemason Monday night looked a lot like the actor who played a Watcher (although IMDB doesn't show that in Frain's credits).

All is well that ends in pizza.
The head Freemason was fresh from his gig as Captain Renard's brother on Grimm.

The head Freemason was fresh from his gig as Captain Renard's brother on Grimm.
So hopefully he really did die in Vienna.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just need to publicly identify myself as a No Romo wrt Ichabbie. Or whatever.
