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.
This week in stupid TV history...
Albert Einstein wouldn't build a nuclear atomic bomb, and even if the nazis could force him to try, he couldn't. He was a theoretical physicist, not an engineer. He may know why a bomb explodes, but not how to actually build one. And the nazis already had Werner Heisenberg running their program, so what would they need with Einstein? Plus, it took the Manhattan Project four years to build a bomb. Granted, they weren't getting their uranium from Damien Darhk, nor did they have Eobard Thawne to give them a set of blueprints, but still, it would still take a lot of time.
And what's Thawne's interest here? He of all people should be opposed to messing with his own timeline.
Oh, Barry, Sad!Cisco is the worst! You better fix this before the end of the episode.
Also, Draco! I don't care what his code name is while he's living undercover as a Muggle. He's still Draco.
I'm slightly boggled that Barry broke the timeline so hard that on Arrow, baby Sara became baby John. I'm a little pissed that the showrunners not only fridged Sara, they turned her namesake into a dude.
Also, I have ZERO use for Draco and the clunky manufactured hostility against Barry. (That said, I often end up loving characters who start out annoying the shit out of me -- Cisco being the biggest example -- so I'm giving him a chance.)
Also, John Wesley Shipp's teeth are distractingly white. (And Dawson on the TV in the diner on Earth-3 made me laugh and laugh. Well played, show.)
I am so so upset about baby Sara. Fix it!
Yeah, that's total bullshit.
Odds on Draco being connected to Doctor Alchemy? Although I am still going to keep a running commentary in my head, assuming it's actually Draco. He's convinced Barry's got a wand somewhere. And was a Hufflepuff.
Odds on Draco being connected to Doctor Alchemy?
Tim thinks Draco *is* Doctor Alchemy, and I thought that was too freaking obvious, but then Dr. Wells was actually Reverse Flash and Jay Garrick was Zoom, so...this show does love the obvious.
I would really like them to stop being super obvious villian show.

God bless the salmon ladder, AMEN.
If they've brought back the salmon ladder, I might go back to Arrow.
The Flash recently ... obviously, he never read The Lathe of Heaven and learned that once you break something you can't put it back.
At least if Draco is Dr. Alchemy Barry won't have the "betrayed by a mentor" thing happen yet again.
