Would this be the place to discuss Braindead?

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
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.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Not a stompy, but my guess would be yes. Literal brainbugs fit pretty neatly into the SciFi/Fantasy category.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
This does seem like the right place for it.

It's sci-fi on network TV and so far as I know neither Joss nor Tim are involved, so this should be the correct thread.

Has anyone else seen it? it's terribly Congress-centric ... but it has its moments. Some of them gross ... brains literally going 'splodey.

I saw the first one, but 2nd episode has to wait on my DVR until I get through my backlog of movies and Penny Dreadful episodes.

I liked a couple of the ads I saw for it, but exploding brains (not to mention Congress) aren't really my sweet spot, so I'm probably going to pass.
edit: Now, put exploding congressional brains on CSPAN and I'll start popping some corn.

I've been watching it. I'm not sure whether I'll last - not the sci-fi stuff I have a problem with, it's the real politics and manipulations and bs that make me crazy. If they start focusing more on the brain-splodey stuff and less on the "real-life" political maneuvering, I imagine I'll stick with it.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Highlights of Orphan Black for me this season:
1) Alison singing Judas' big opening number from JC Superstar while Donnie gets the shit beaten out of him in prison, Sarah looks to be betrayed, but the only one Alison really betrayed was the asshole bent cop. Mrs. S doesn't fuck around.
2) Helena saving the Hendrixs. Again. I totally called it, but the method made it all so satisfying.
3) Cosima and Delphine reunited.

I wasn't as in love with this season as previous seasons. My favorite clones are Alison and Helena, and they seemed to be sidelined for much of the season.
