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.
The Flash: so that red/yellow blur at the end has to be Harrison Wells, right? Which makes him... Reverse Flash? Professor Zoom? (OK, I actually don't know the difference between the two since I've been trying not to read up too much on the comics canon in order not to get spoiled for the show.) Or maybe show just *wants* us to think it is Wells. But honestly, who else could it be?
They were selling it pretty hard this episode. If it's not, then one has to wonder who else even knows that Joe is investigating the case again. If they don't explain that if it's not Wells, I'm going to be very disappointed.
I feel like maybe Barry taunting his former bully by talking to him with his mask off is going to bite him in the ass when the inevitable prison break happens. (That's not a spoiler; just speculation based on the GIANT FLASHING SIGN of Nothing Can Go Wrong When You Store Metahuman Villains In One Place.)
Yeah. As emotionally satisfying as I'm sure that was for him (and vicariously for Cisco and Caitlin) my thought was "You never taunt the super-villain, Barry. They ALWAYS escape!"
My feeling about Wells is that he thinks he is a good guy, but is so ruthless and indifferent to collateral damage in the course of achieving his (laudable) goal that he is not.
I think he's almost definitely evil, but he has a very specific plan in mind for Barry, and will do whatever it takes to make sure he gets him there.
Arrow:
Poor Ollie. Palmer steals his company, his love interest and his salmon ladder.
Or at least I'd say "Poor Ollie" if it wasn't his own stupid fault.
I will give the actress playing Cupid credit, she managed to play the over-the-top crazy without going completely into camp territory.
he went all woobie. I need that fixed.
Glad to see Felicity's reaction to the salmon ladder is much like mine ... ours?
They didn't actually show him doing the ladder, though.
Casting rumors for Jessica Jones and Luke Cage.
Not sure if Krysten Ritter is right for the role, but I like Krysten Ritter.
My thoughts exactly, Tom.
Of those four? Ritter all the way. Jessica de Gouw is gorgeous but cannot act (although she did improve a bit by her last appearance as Huntress on Arrow) and Daddario was TERRIBLE on White Collar. I don't know Theresa Palmer.
I apologize if I missed it if anyone posted a link earlier, but our own Knut (AKA David Schwartz) has a funny piece up: A Fox Studio Exec Meets With The Creative Team Of Sleepy Hollow, An Incomplete Transcript
So worth the read!
ita, they showed Palmer (Felicity's new boss) using a salmon ladder - not QUITE as impressive as Oliver, but good enough to leave her at a loss for words.
