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.

Anyone watching Metal Hurlant Chronicles? Would you recommend it?
Your question motivated me to watch it as my workout TV last night. Worst writing i've seen in a SyFy series in a long time. Does anyone remember a comic years ago, translated from the French. Amazing graphics, mostly awful writing (with very few exceptions)? Heavy Metal? Well the writing is like bad imitation Heavy Metal, makes the writing for the comic book seem like Tim Minear by comparison. Except, unlike Heavy Metal , Metal Hurlant is not that visually stunning. My advice don't waste your time. The writers on Metal Hurlant could take lessons in character development and plot logic from the writers of Lost Girl. Yeah, MH is that bad IMO. They do choose pretty people, but if you want to seem pretty people in badly written roles there are plenty of other choices.
Heavy Metal was the American edition of the French magazine Metal Hurlant.
No wonder it reminded me. Well, it is done on the cheap. As I said the writing is worse than your typical Heavy Metal comic.
And the graphics not as stunning. BTW was "Heavy Metal" a version? I always assumed from some of the phrasing that it was a direct translation.
I'm liking it more than that (turns out my free time was unexpectedly copious today). Enough to recommend, I don't know if I'd go that far, but it's fine. And I like that each episode is just half an hour. That sounds backhanded, but I mean it sincerely - it's a nice little morsel of syfy.
Just caught up to current on Orphan Black. This show is amazing.
Mrs. S does not fuck around. Jesus.
Right?
Aw, Peter Outerbridge and Julian Richings! This show just got 1000% more Canadian.
I was very excited to see Julian Richings.
I've also had "Bitch" stuck in my head since I watched the S2 episodes, though.
Does anyone watch Tomorrow People? What was the upside to getting the injection, again? It seemed blindingly ill-advised even at the time.
I've been mostly enjoying WH13, but does anyone besides me hate Pete's haircut?
