'Life of the Party'
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.
More generally, I do think Moffat's been much better on gender this season compared to his first three, most apparently in Clara's character. I'm becoming better disposed towards the Eleventh Doctor's tenure over time, but Nine and Ten were must-watch TV. Eleven was just pretty good TV. This last season was must-watch again.
Yep.
Kinda want to see Nick Frost and Bruce Campbell team up to save Christmas.
Perhaps from zombies.
-t, you are excused from the exercise, but how would other viewers draw a Venn diagram of horror and urban fantasy and place Grimm on it?
I have actually been giving this some thought (albeit typically as I was drifting off to sleep and therefore not well positioned to be typing up a post or even making notes) and I think it's pretty solidly urban fantasy with roots in the fairy tale genre, albeit the kind of fairy tale where Cinderella's stepsisters cut off their toes, so horror to the extent that that sort of thing counts as horror. The "monsters" are almost always folkloric if not straight up fairy tale and the story telling is more procedural + relationship drama than anything else.
So apparently Titans is coming to TV. This writer assumes it's the Go! team, with which I'm not entirely familiar, but I have no issue. As long as it's not the New 52 shreds of characterisations...
Anyway: [link] is a writer's dreamcasting, and apparent from Cyborg and Raven (although Solo's a bit short) the man is on mind-destroying drugs.
Are they assuming that Beast Boy/Changeling won't be there because of budgetary constraints?
Yeah, it seems.
I wouldn't cast him as Impulse anyway, not until I see more charisma from him (only seen him in Wallflower)
In coming sooner news, I'm looking forward to "Galavant" this Sunday. Not sure if musical comedy fantasy will succeed commercially or artistically, but defintely glad to see them try. And they have good lyricists and writers doing the book, and good actors and singer delivering the lines - so real chance of this being good.
Ooh, thanks for reminding me!
I've been listening to the theme song all week!
I'll probably catch Galavant when it replays on Saturday.
I think The Librarians is hitting its stride. That was a lot of fun. I love Jenkin's interpretation of vending machines.
