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.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

So, I mainlined the first season of iZombie this weekend and loved the hell out of it. Can anybody tell me if season 2 is as good? My daughter said she didn't think so. I want a Buffista opinion, as my daughter and I may watch the same shows, but very frequently for different reasons and have different readings of character motivation.

It's been a little uneven, but I'm still into it.

It's even better, in my opinion. They've really mastered the balance between serialization and standalone that Veronica Mars had, making each case relate to the character arc while also juggling several other plates.

Excellent. Now, the next question is, how important is it to watch all the episodes in season 2 up to now? Can I skip them, or will I be missing too much?

I think you could probably jump in and follow okay. The previouslies are pretty good, and there are expositiony recaps in dialog at times.

I think I'm gonna say Supernatural. I really liked this last episode.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Did someone say this X-Files is by Darin Morgan? It feels like Darin Morgan.
