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.
by the 3rd or 4th episode all the moral ambiguity started sucking me into a "what would I have done in that situation" mindset, which made it a lot more interesting.
HAH Sail! That's exactly what happened to me, although I got bored by the 3rd ep, skipped the 4th, watched the 5th, and then got hooked. I mainlined the 1st and 2nd seasons in about 2 weeks.
I like to describe the show as one in which everyone fails the Kobayashi Maru test; in fact, there is no way to cheat it. It's just all bad decisions, every way you go.
That said, you will be surprised at how your opinions of various people (::cough:: Murphy Bellamy Jaha Kane Octavia ::cough::) change over time. They do a LOT of amazing character work on this show, and (yay!) every episode passes the Bechdel test. In fact, at various points, women are the major agents of the plot.
I have to admit my first reaction was, "Oh, Lord of the Flies crashed from outer space this time." Still compelling watching, though, for many of the same reasons.
The Arrow finale was better than the Flash finale, but it still felt like a chore to get through.
Is anyone watching Wynnona Earp? Is it any good?
The premise is not well thought out, and the horror is more gruesome than horrifying. The actors are better than the material, and they've had some fun with it.
I just rewatched Attack the Block last night, and one of the kids in it plays Jefferson in Legends of Tomorrow. The fact that he's British explains a lot of my questions about how he talks.
Is anyone watching Houdini and Doyle? (Or would that be in procedurals?) Is it any good? It certainly looks lovely. I had no idea this show existed until tonight.
I just turned on Houdini & Doyle. It does look good.
It's episode 5 or something, too! I may go back and watch the first four.
I was watching H & D when I still had broadcast tv, but I haven't bothered with trying to keep up with it online. It wasn't quite captivating enough.
