It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Christ, was that ever in doubt?!?!?

No. But it's good to see it in print.

I am not happy with Colin being on VD.

Um, what? No, wait, he's going to be on Vampire Diaries. Got it.

Yeah, it made me think we needed to send him best wishes on his medical treatment.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Dominion has a lot of problems, but I am interested in it.

I mean the show has got to be the most convoluted show on tv right now.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Colin being on TVD is causing me some strife. I was so proud of myself for quitting that show!

Got around to watching The Strain. Meh. I don't think I'll stick with it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

The second ep is better, and gave me fewer heebie jeebies. The show is not good tho.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I find that I'm hitting the mute button whenever the lead is talking to his wife, his son, or his AA group, which is not a good sign.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

how much of the ep did you see?

The lead was wonderful in L&O:LA. like I really really dug him as an actor, etc.

He was also pretty good in "House of Cards." WTF happened?

I saw all of it, but heard probably less than 50%. They really should have made Mr. Setrakian the protagonist; I'm much more interested in his story.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The scene with Setrakian and the nasty guy was very good. If they can do that, they can come up to snuff with the rest of the show.

I have to wonder, though, how often a morgue containing 206 bodies that are the result of a muchly-publicized plane crash, goes unstaffed for however long it was. Not to mention, the zombpires that wandered off aren't exactly subtle, as in avoiding being seen in public with parts missing, et cetera. And not all families are going to be like "Oh, hey, you're miraculously alive, why didn't anyone call to tell me you were OK!"

I mean, given social media, people are going to be taking selfies with the rescued family members, calling the newspapers to get their 15 minutes of fame, calling lawyers to file big money lawsuits for pain and suffering.

...

I probably think too much.
