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.
So, we had more hints at Jenkins' back story in The Librarians. Did anyone catch what le Fay called him?
Closed captioning had it as Galeas. I don't recall anyone in the Arthurian mythos named that, but it is far from my area of expertise.
Also, running the two episodes back-to-back didn't work well with Math Girl's development, I thought. In one episode she literally gets a trophy for saving the day, and in the next she's concerned about not being able to contribute.
The episodes are not being shown in the *best* order, according to Rogers' blog. I will take the liberty of quoting him:
The order as originally written/intended took us through a very specific tour of the characters (I know the episode titles are out there, so I don't feel bad listing them):
1. & 2.) Crown/Stone: Re-establish the mythology, set up the characters and the return of magic.
3.) Horns of a Dilemma: Being the team's journey to learn to work together. Badly. Oh, and the back door. Somewhat Baird-y, but we tagged all the relationships.
4.) Fables of Doom: Team still not working together great, Ezekiel-centric.
5.) Heart of Darkness (will air 8th): Still spiky, addresses everyone's relationship with Cassandra.
6.) Santa: Team working better together, bonding over Christmas, Eve-centric.
7.) Apple of Discord: Bring Flynn back, which eats a lot of show, and round-robin through how the team has changed.
8.) City of Light: Big Stone episode. (Will air 9th)
9.) Rule of Three: Very much a team episode, although some juicy Jenkins goodness in here (air 7th)
10.) Loom of Fate: ... spoilers.
I didn't realize it was such a short season!!! Just when it was getting somewhat good, at least, at keeping my interest going.

Thanks! According to Wikipedia it's another name for Galahad. Or a small sailing ship, but given the le Fay connection, I'm comfortable calling it for the former. IO9 likes it, too. [link]
I got an amazon gift card for xmas and bought the season. I'll try to watch as much as I can in the order intended.
Wow, Vinnie Jones seems to be everywhere these days.
Oh, that's Vinnie Jones! The short glimpse of him in the TV trailer (which is a lot shorter) made me think, "I know that guy...who is he?" I think I've only seen him on Elementary, but he was fairly terrifying there.
Well, that makes me happy.
Constantine animated short.
I'm still watching the show, it's still s-l-o-w-l-y improving each episode.
My feeling about Constantine is that it needs to spend way less time having someone yell incantations in a dark room and it need to have way less of the angel being a dick. So far, the angel seems to be entirely pointless.
Anyone else watch
12 Monkeys
or the second season opener of Helix?
I'm kinda meh on both, but I'll probably keep watching for at least a few more episodes.
