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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I loved Mom Smoak, so good. Wonder if we will get more.

I spent the episode thinking "Where have I seen her before" until I looked her up and she used to be "Eve" on DOOL back in the day. (80's)

Sorry, I had to skip and post in the middle of watching the episode, I was that excited. I don't know much about Green Arrow, but the boxing glove arrow looms large in that little bit.

I think Laurel is growing on me. That scene with "we used to date" on she was kinda great.

What's funny is that I watch The Flash and think "I might like this better than The Arrow" and then the next day or so I watch The Arrow and I'm all "I love this show!" Well played CW.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I definitely like Flash better, although I hate love triangles and forced estrangement because of secrets. Well, I love Supernatural, and it's the ne plus ultra of subtextual love triangles and manic lack of communication.

(Ep 200 was tumblr-perfect)

(It was indeed)

I think whether I prefer The Flash or The Arrow depends entirely on which I've seen most recently. They both have my number.

I do like that Barry is not telling whatshername only because Jesse L Martin made him promise. And that that is spectacularly failing at keeping-her-out-of-it. As far as secrets go.

That's an interesting take on golems.

I think this version of Constantine goes down better if have not read the comic book. Because the particular issue this episode was based showed a much harder edge, less likable Constantine.

I half expected it to be the Terracotta Warrior from Middleman when it first started rising.

'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"

Nice to see the Grimm Squad weirded out by something that actually wasn't Wesen.

When we left Adalind, she was drowning, right? Or did I blink and miss something?
