The show's been pretty good at being subversive, so hopefully it'll continue to do unexpected things.
It's also been pretty good about finding ways for our heroes to win, every time. I think Jenny will be ok.
She just... she just did the math.

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.

More demons need to travel with human minions to get rid of the pesky salt lines.

New Arrow tomorrow! I don't know when it became the show I look forward to the most during my week, but it has!
Wednesday is Arrow day! It's like how I used to get excited on Tuesdays because it was Buffy day.
I heard Sean Maher is gonna be in tomorrow's episode!
I read that and forgot until I read your post. It really is chock full of the genre TV actors. LOVE.

Teen Wolf, the mention of were-coyote made me think of the Mercy Thompson series and wonder yet again why no one has tried to turn it into a television show.
The first 3 books have been optioned for film.

I didn't realize that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Lots of things get optioned and nothing comes of it, though.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
So no Arrow talk, huh?
I thought the episode was okay, though I'm really more interested in figuring out if that was a differently-masked Deathstroke or if that was Sportsmaster we saw in the preview for next week. It had a hockey-mask vibe going on, though it looked like it was two-toned.

I was left kind of "meh" on the episode. I figured out Blood's "aunt" was really his mother about 30 seconds before Laurel did.
I know flashback!Slade was injected with super-serum and came back from the dead (or almost-death) (which is still partly alive) (I had to say that), but he looked like he had a makeover in this episode. It was disconcerting.

I didn't even think about Sportsmaster! I assumed it was present-day Slade/Deathstroke.

I was in the same boat. I kept thinking "He looks different. Why does he look different?" Apparently nearly dying and getting injected with super-serum resulted in a new haircut, a clean face and a much more neatly-trimmed beard.
Also, on the subject of the super-serum, I have to shake my head everytime they say "Mirakuru". I highly doubt the WWII-era Japanese would name their super-soldier program using an English word. (Seriously, it's just how you would pronounce the world "miracle" after writing it in kanji.)
In non-Arrow news, did we know Gina Carano was going to be on Almost Human? [link] Not trying to be mean, but killer robot seems to be a perfect role for her.
