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.
You know, it occurs to me that if they used the horseman's head to make the kindred/Franklinstein's monster (LOVE IT), shouldn't it be evil as well? since he (and, presumably, his head) was evil before they were separated.
Then it hit me - you know what they held the head to the body with? HANDWAVIUM!
Orlando Jones tweeted yesterday about cutting Irving some slack for not reading the contract - after all, he'd been pumped full of psychotropic drugs. The way I see, the Almighty probably has
some
standards when it comes to informed consent and selling one's soul. Sure Molloch & Co may not, and they may be able to make all sorts of mischief in the meantime, but in the end Irving's soul is intact. Of course maybe the trick is, that having tricked him into signing his soul away he may be persuaded to behave as though he has indeed signed away his immortal soul. Or maybe he will exercise his free will as much as he can for the side of good.
Franklinstein's Monster?
Ahahaha, I meant to comment on that. I can't believe I didn't watch this show last season. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME.
ORLANDO JONES TWEETED BACK A REPLY TO A QUESTION I ASKED.
Ok, had to get that out first, because I totally geeked out in a big way. I KNEW i'd seen the new sheriff in something, and I and he replied that she'd been in "House of Cards." She's Sakina Jaffrey, and played Linda Vasquez -- I replied she was great in that role, and it was great to see more badass ladies on SH, and she RT and favorited my tweet.
I am such a nerd about all, this, I know, but I about wet my pants.
ION -- the episode! Was great! FLAMING SWORD! That cold open which was a dream -- whew. Katrina as a mole.
It was a good ep!
She's Sakina Jaffrey, and played Linda Vasquez
Yep! Hopefully she can be converted into an ally this time instead of playing another incredibly-good-at-her-job-but-fired-anyway-because-reasons role.
Knew I'd seen this before online:

I never fail to read House of Cards as House of Lies and couldn't think who you were talking about. According to her imdb page she was also in Heroes and Law & Order, which is probably where I recognized her from.

Ha! I love this show so much and don't see to care how much handwavium they need to use. Also, I can never resist saying that John Noble continues to be awesome.
PBS is rebroadcasting the original House of Cards, if anyone's interested.
Having Selfie on in the background while cooking dinner has convinced me that I need never watch any of the 11th Doctor episodes if there's even a chance of Karen Gillan being in them.
What I don't get is how Katrina is going to get any information she gleans to Crane and Abby. Witchy powers, I suppose?
The incantation to raise the Kindred (that is a very fine monster! I hope he hasn't disappeared into the void) sounded familiar so I googled. Lovecraft. I'm not sure what to make of that. And Crane
I love that Irving put the head in a safety deposit box. And Crane's rant.
I like the new sheriff being all no nonsense AND knowing Abby and Jenny's story from back in the day. Lots of potential there.
