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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What do the Starburst editions have that the regular DVDs don't?

I thought the Starburst editions had technical problems. I know the original releases had some irritating limitations (at least the first season or two), such as no way to start the second episode without ff-ing through the first, but I swear I remember the Startburst ones had lots of glitches (like many of the discs being unplayable).

The two-sided two disk versions were glitchy but then they switched and the newer ones are single-sided 4 disk versions. They have more extras and also subtitles.

Meanwhile - have Pushing Daisies and/or Moonlight completed a first-half-season thing? Whatever you call it? The thing you have where suddenly the season is interrupted for ages?

Moonlight? Really? Fay, I expected more from you. It's kind of dreadful. and not in a good way.

Oh no. Moonlight is fun. Trust me - the first episode is dreadful and then it just got better.

Fay - you mean a MARATHON???

Better - the show is much better than the first episode. And they left off at a very cliff-hangery place too.

I see used Farscape DVDs pretty regularly at stores like FYE, and Suncoast before it went under. So if you keep your eyes peeled you can probably pick up some sets for under $10.

I like Moonlight too! I think of it as the romantic paperback version of Angel.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Moonlight's a guilty pleasure for me too. It really did get better after the first episode. And it's got Alex O'Loughlin: [link]

It's not the same vampire mythos as the Buffyverse, which seems to have turned off a lot of people, but the show does a good job of defining what is/isn't "real" early on.
