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.
Paul Blackthorne - great.
Yes! I think he has been one of the most underused actors in this series. So, it's nice to see him getting some good material.
Also, I'm officially afraid that the grave 6 months from now is Cop Daddy's.
No. I'm afraid of the same thing, but I don't want to believe it.
The Supergirl name speech
That was the only part I didn't like, because grown-ass women are not girls (admittedly, this is a hill I've chosen to die on and I know lots of female humans over the age of 18 call themselves and other similarly-aged female humans "girls" [but it still gets on my last nerve]).
I can totally see that, and I personally would never like to be referred to as a girl, but I appreciate people that see it as a powerful word.
Oh, and Sara chained to the wall totally reminded me of Angel back from Hell.

Also Faith in whatever episode that was. (I used to know this. It makes me a little sad that I don't.)
I watched the Bones-Sleepy Hollow crossover last night. The filming seems different for the two shows, and Abby and Ichabod seemed, I dunno, washed out, maybe, on the Bones set?
Also, while it's been years since I watched Bones regularly, I remember it being a science, not magic, kinda show. Inserting Sleepy Hollow, where magic is demonstrably real, into that universe seems like cheating somehow.

Definitely - the lighting is completely different, and Ichabod's clothes looked much more costume-y on the Bones set. (Also, Bones uses mostly static camera shot/reverse shot staging, while Sleepy Hollow uses a lot of slow pans across two-shots. Totally different feel for the characters.)
I question whether the creators of either show know how far apart Sleepy Hollow and Washington DC are - was it just me, or did Abbie and Ichabod drive down for a single conversation and drive back the same day? All in daylight?

Isn't this the show that put Roanoke in Massachusetts? What's one more geographical impossibility.
Yeah, but those were ghosts. They didn't have to drive through I-95 NJ traffic to move up the East Coast.
That show also renamed the Tappan Zee Bridge, and had the Roanoke colonists speaking "Chaucer's English." I think that expecting any sort of accuracy from them is expecting too much.

I actually looked it up on Google maps during a commercial break, and Google's most optimistic estimate was 4 hours. So even assuming traffic went perfectly (ahahahaha), that's still an 8-hour round trip. So...handwavium.
I watched both shows despite the fact that I gave up on Bones a couple seasons ago. It wasn't as painful as I expected it to be.
