He is. And I love Curtis. I just had to marvel again last night that he's a gay, married, black, scientist Olympian. How many other gay black characters have there even been on network TV?
Lorne: Back in Pylea they used to call me "sweet potato." Connor: Really. Lorne: Yeah, well, the exact translation was "fragrant tuber" but…

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.

Okay, watching last night's Legends, and OMG they're going to let Victor Garber sing, aren't they!

Our wings are not tired.

I don't even watch Legends but I would tune in for that.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
They did, and he was excellent. Even Field Marshall von Rundstedt was teary-eyed.
It's got to get better now that Sara is the leader of our gallant band and doing the voiceovers at the start of the episode. I still don't get Thawne's play here. Again, he's been one of those most vociferously against messing with the time line.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Wait, is Rip Hunter gone? He and the Hawks were a big reason why I stopped watching.

He's not gone forever. No sign of the Hawks returning yet, but they did leave the possibility open.
And sorry, I should really not call Rip Hunter "Rory", since there's another actual Rory on the show.

And it's not that I'm not enjoying Arrow, but literally every decision everyone made in that episode was terrible.
You act like that's a new thing.
