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.
that was by far the most annoying thing about this episode.
Talk about "show, don't tell". FAIL.
I did like Allison freaking out over losing Carter as well as his keeping his response light.
And loved that Henry, Jack and Allison were all made privy to the fact that Eva is investigation this installation, and yet the mystery is still there. That was a mighty chilling "No" at the end there.
I *was* disappointed that more wasn't done with Zane and the kids being trapped. Nothing illuminating or interesting or just silly, or hey, maybe a little more dire (how about beginning stages of asphyxiation?)
I want to see the movie about the storm god!
You know, whenever there is one of these phase machines, I always want to know -- how do you keep from sinking through the floor?
how do you keep from sinking through the floor?
Same way Spike could sit on furniture as a ghost. The magic of TeeVee and massive application of handwavium.
It's well known that gravity has a weak effect on phase shifting! Sheesh!
If Vincent is an incurable gossip, surely every eligible male in town has heard about Lexxi's Dr. Who, so the flocking behavior is even more inexplicable.
I wonder how many times "they exchange meaningful/significant looks" was in the script for Fringe. I mean, yes, it was nice to not have people expositing, and I appreciate that they trust the actors to convey emotions, and trust the audience to Get It. But you don't need to do that in every freaking scene. Watching people stare at each other meaningfully all the time was giving me Carnivale flashbacks.
I kinda felt the same way about the direction. It certainly is a pretty show. But again: yes, TV tends to have a lot of medium shots, so I can understand wanting to break from that and having more wide shots & close-ups. But seriously, two-shots are useful sometimes. And it should not be hard to follow what's happening in a car chase.
To end on a positive note: I am very excited that Joshua Jackson is getting crow's feet, because I firmly believe he is transforming into George Clooney.
Alias marked me for life. The minute I heard (I was in the other room) the "Bad Robot!" I immediately thought
the Pattern is a big red ball!
Well, Fringe was okay. I didn't love it immediately but I didn't not want to watch it again. (If that makes sense.)
And, if you guys watch the encore (Sunday night, was it?) they are adding about 10 minutes from episode two to the mix.
Eureka - I guess I liked the other stuff so much that the Lexxi stuff didn't bother me. Although, I don't get why it was Zane and not Zoe's bf who was carrying her into that control room.
Fringe, then Eureka - nice double feature on a Tuesday. (I guess we only get one more week of it, don't we?)
Note to Sheriff Carter -- if you have a choice of sending your daughter to 3 days of relatively SAFE yoga or have her hang around the ultra-dangerous town, think carefully about your options, 'K?
Theo - so very true.
And they built the high school on top of that? WTF where they thinking?
