And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

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.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Some were better than others, at least to the point I've reached (the swordfight between Charming and Hook). Robin and Regina do well, possibly because their characters aren't changed all that much. Rumplestiltskin has no depth, although that may have been intentional. I keep thinking that Ginnifer Goodwin as Snow in particular is having a little too much fun and may burst out laughing at any moment.

The idea may have been similar to some of the personality-switch episodes in Buffy -- give the actors a change of pace from playing the same old character every episode.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I did notice that Hook's eyeliner seems to be a permanent accouterment.

As it should be.

Jack Sparrow reference! I so want Emma Swan and Elizabeth Swan to be related somehow.

Rumplestiltskin has no depth, although that may have been intentional.

I loved him as the heroic night in the beginning. He's really the only reason I'm still watching this show.

Considering they're both Disney properties, I wouldn't be surprised to see this actually happen.

Flash: Wentworth Miller is a GEM.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Suit ring!

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

iZombie:

Oh no. Damn.

It absolutely was.

I enjoyed that Flash episode thoroughly, except now it makes even less sense re. the timing of the Arrow crossover. Oliver was about to get freakin' married to Nyssa and Team Arrow was left to die in Nanda Parbat. When would Oliver have had time to come to Barry's rescue?!

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

So now that they've caught Wells, what are they going to do with him? I don't see either the accelerator or Lian Yu holding him.

I'm also disappointed we never learned what he was actually planning to do with the accelerator. Using it to go home somehow, I'm sure.

I'm starting to wonder, based on Well's monologue to Eddie, if Barry did something to somehow invalidate the timeline Thawne originally came from, and his whole gameplan has been to restore it.

ETA: I don't know, Vonnie. The timing on the crossovers has been a little weird this season. Other than the Arrow episode where Felicity literally returned from visiting Barry at the end of the episode, it's been difficult figuring out how everything lines up. Like when Felicity and Ray jaunted over in the middle of their relationship drama as if nothing was going on.
