Oy.
Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
That's really surprising to me, given what I've heard her say about the importance of Janeway to women and to women scientists.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
OH KATE MULGREW NO
On yet another irritating news, Google Now totally spoiled me with a major plot point for an upcoming Arrow ep today. The hell? GOOGLE NOW, THIS IS THE OPPOSITE OF HELPFUL.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Oh, man, I am so spoiled for the rest of the season. I haven't sought out spoilers like this since the last season of Buffy.
Summary of spoilers: people do some stuff. And other stuff. And then other people react to the stuff and do some stuff of their own. And some other other people talk about it. And there are arrows.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I wasn't a particularly huge one, and I averted my eyes quickly enough that I got only a part of it (it was some kind of article with a big spoilery heading, in the manner of "Darth Vader Reveals He's Luke's Father, And Yeah, Luke Totally Eye-fucked His Sister, Gross!") but I am still cranky! I've gone cold turkey on spoilers. I know a few speculations, and I deliberately avoided seeking out confirmation for those. Haven't gone to any message boards other than here in yonks, either. And my fucking *phone* spoils me? I mean, just because I have googled "Arrow CW" about three dozen times in the last month or so does not mean I want to know *everything* about the show! Silly algorithms!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Beau and I started watching "Arrow" and I am really digging it. We started at the beginning and I'm on ep 13. I have been skimming over the posts this season, so I am unaware.
Can I just say that I have never seen so many Black people on tv. There are so many supporting characters who are African American on this show. I don't think I have seen this many Black people on a tv show since "Roots."

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
You should watch Sleepy Hollow as well, Le Nubian. Ichabod Crane and wife are white, but I think almost everyone else of any importance (except the germanic villains) are not white. And it is totally not a big deal at all.

And Sheriff Clancy. But that's totally a case of the exception proving the rule - I had to stop and do a runthrough in my head, to remember peoples' races - because it's never been a plot point. Which is to say, I agree with you:
And it is totally not a big deal at all.

Because books.
Is this where Orphan Black discussion goes? And if so, should I be suspicious of Cosima ? I'm only on 1.4. I think I'm also suspicious of everything, to be honest.

Amy, this is one of those shows where you can't predict what's going to happen, and trying to explain it only makes you sound crazy.
