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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Wayward Pines: I'm wondering if the situation really is as the woman described it, or if it's still "now" and they're fooling people. And the danger is an experiment gone horribly wrong (being oblique to avoid spoilers for the ... three? ... people watching).

Yeah, that definitely seems like a possibility. If not, how was the former sheriff there both before the family's accident and after the family's accident? Is he able to time travel?

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

The writers of Wayward Pines has an answer to my question that I'm not sure if I buy in this week's ask Ausiello on tvline. I can post what was said in Spoilers after diner if anyone is interested and doesn't want to look for themselves and risk spoilers on other shows.

OK, caught up on Wayward Pines. I don't know, I don't think it's working for me.

I started liking it better after the third episode.

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

This non-spoilery except for the premiere bit from TVline nicely sums up a thought I had on this week's premiere:

Also, did not one producer question the optics of killing off in one fell swoop the show’s minority family in the same episode you bring on two black actors as ruthless, purple-skinned villains?

I'm watching Dark Matter it feels like a cheap Firefly ripoff with amnesia.

That sounds okay.

I have it recorded but haven't watched yet. I think Killjoys is the one I'm actually looking forward to from the ads.

I totally get this, but that family was pretty boring and the new aliens are kinda awesome. I'm not entirely sure they are villains, but that is probably wishful thinking.
