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.
There were lots of interesting moments, but the ep definitely didn't live up to the impossibly high standard it has set for itself.
Do we think that the notes in the Isle of Dr. Moreau is Ethan's last bargaining chip? Kinda cool that Kira is being exposed to all that.
I was cool with the Tony stuff, but my main problem was that is just felt too rushed. It was all, Clone Of The Week style. If there had been a couple episodes to build up all the stuff the rushed through before sending him on his way, it may have felt more organic in general. I dunno.
It almost felt inside jokey, like, oh, here's a way for Jordan to kiss Tatiana!
I still love this show with everything though.
Orphan Black: I have now watched the episode, and my main reaction is that I want podcasts of Cosima ruling the lab in Runewars.
I must say, that the Mary Sue visual recap for the most recent episode is hilaaaaarious: [link]

Priceless.
If Tony is a one-off, I'm going to be very disappointed, especially given his lack of interaction with the other clones. I hope he ends up on a Helena rescue mission, because her reaction would be wonderful I think. Alison's too, for that matter.
Any time I see nerds on TV playing a game now, I wish it were The Cones of Dunshire.
Cosima vs. Abed, the roleplaying wars.
Interesting--I just watched Dark Angel S2 because a) it was there and b) Jensen, and wondered about the stunting. Her fights are staged oddly, either sped up or slowed down, so it feels more athletic than martial. Pages 1 and 2 of the search say she did all her own stunts, and page 3 lists a resume of a woman who says she was her stunt double on the show.
Now, who knows who does what, but if she is claiming she did 100% of the stunts, is she fucking with someone else's CV, or is she just fucking with us.
(I started watching Buffy because they said she had a brown belt in TKD, so it's not like I haven't been fooled before)
Wow, this episode is hitting cry buttons I didn't know I had. The last time I had that experience was the movie HER.
And...as soon as we come back from commercial...Donnie grows a gianourmous set of balls. It's a damn shame Alison wasn't there to watch that.
