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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

The brains look like shrimps to me, especially when broken apart. So when Liv is munching on them, sometimes I go, "mmmm, shrimps with pasta. I'm hungry."

As for Major Lilywhite (yes, that's his actual last name), I figured it's just the writers having fun with ridiculous names. I mean, Liv Moore is not exactly subtle either. Making Ravi Major's new roommate was a brilliant move, I thought. People from Liv's old life have mostly circled the periphery of relevance so far, but this brings Major closer to the action. Also, the Ravi actor is made of magic and has chemistry with everyone. I might be crushing on him a tad.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Anyone remember In Plain Sight ? There was a character I really liked, a US Marshall named Marshall Mann, so he was Marshall Marshall Mann. It was a running joke on the series. I usually don't like "joke" names but that one cracked me up. Major Lilywhite is just dumb enough to be funny, to me.

Zombies are gross and scary, but this one is not bothering me.

I loved Marshall Mann. My all time favorite.

OUAT wasn't too bad last night. I think the episode benefited from not having Emma, Snow, or Charming in it.

In Plain Sight was really good. I loved Mary Shannon.

I felt like Mary Shannon was who I might have become if I'd turned my anger outward instead of inward. We had similar personalities other than that. I felt a lot of kinship with her.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

My joy at dicovering my cable system now gets BBC America and the El Ray network is being somewhat dampened by the fact that I've had C.H.U.D. showing on the latter for the past 50 minutes and still nothing has happened so far. Were all the 80s horror movies this boring and I just hadn't been desensitized by MTV and high-octane SFX blockbusters yet? It just seems impossible that I have less patience as a 45-year-old man than I did as a teenager.

Edit: FINALLY! At the 1:16 mark a CHUD appeared onscreen for half a second and killed someone.

You aren't wrong. Their storyline is pretty dumb right now. But I did not entirely follow all the new plot twists - Rumpelstiltskin is being evil under duress from the Wicked Witch, right? What does she have over him? I was watching while I was doing my taxes, but I didn't catch how taunting him with the heart healing stuff led to them being in league or him being under her control or whatever is going on.
