Supposedly on July 14. But I'll believe it when I see it.

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.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What do you mean by other issues?
I mean like:
I tried to like Moonlight, but just couldn't connect with it on any level. None of the actors could engage my interest. And the plots that I saw were pretty laughable—I completely checked out when they found a working ice machine in an abandoned desert gas station to provide Mick with his life-saving bath.
Basically, I was trying to be nice.

Oh, but that was also the time when he fell to his knees in "agony" and also accidentally ripped his shirt open to the waist.
(Yes, I watched Moonlight, and I'm almost not ashamed to admit it. It was Angel, if Angel was a bodice-ripper.)

I really didn't like Moonlight. I mean, if you're going to rip off another series, could you at least try to be as good? I mean, you're getting the plotlines already, can you work on some dialogue or "not completely out of my ass"-ness

Precisely what I liked about it.
Having been a Beauty and the Beast fan, I actually thought Moonlight was pretty restrained on the ohcomeon! front.
If Vincent didn't live in damp tunnels and require a full body prosthetic only Weta could do decades later...his shirt would have been off much of to the time too.

It's not that I object to a little gratuitousness in my vampire detective shows (hell, I was always happy when Angel's shirts were casualities), but I like a bit of substance to go with the flashing.

You were being nice. I think all of agreed that at least some of us found every show on that list sucktastic. We just might vary which ones we could stomach.

And at the end of the series with Josef turning Mick, and then later, sharing a "freshie" cringe, it was difficult not to watch.

Josef turning Mick
Oh God, but that plotline totally pays for itself by creating some of the slashiest on-screen slash in recent memory. Some of Angel? Less gay.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Josef turning Mick
Someone needs to explain to me how that worked. Mick was still technically a vampire but with the "cure" in his blood. After Josef turned him he still would have had the "cure" in his blood, so why did it work?

Yeah, at the end, total vamire/sex fest.
