I join Theo in the Fringe love. I seriously plan to do a complete rewatch soon.
I stuck with it through bot Alias and LOST so I feel like I earned Fringe!
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

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.

I am with Theo and quester with the Fringe love, but the first season took a while to find it's legs. It was a bit of an X-Files knock-off for a ways there.
I can definitely feel the Fringe folks fingerprints all over Sleepy Hollow, and not just because they brought in John Noble.

The status is NOT quo.
I really loved this week's Doctor Who. Old school monsters with some spots of humor and rumblings of Things to Come.

I thought the visual effects in this week's Who were the best I've ever seen. Very cool. Very creepy.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Right, bonny?? This is supposed to be a low-budget show but holy cats.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Best episode of this season, I think.

Agreed!
The baddies were amazing. Sort of rota-scope. Sort of impressionism. Plus, plus.
So much awesome.

I really enjoyed this episode as well. Not much more to add, except I liked Clara taking her turn at being "The Doctor".

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Clara with the Twelfth Doctor is now my favourite Moffat-era companion. Possibly my favourite of all the new Who companions.
This episode was hilarious.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
And with a enough darkness in the humor to give it bite. "You were an excellent Doctor. Goodness had nothing to with it."
The bit with the hairband was great too - the sheer exasperation with self-sacrificing lack of common sense. Paraphrase: "If you want to stay, I'll take the hairband and go. And I'll keep it always to remind me you gave your life for it."
