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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I am still highly annoyed by Lexi. The actress always plays annoying parts, so my predisposition to hate her is not her fault. however, the writers are playing into it by making her really annoying. I also hate when the writers try to force the audience into liking a character by making other characters like her. Someone mentioned upthread the showing, not telling thing. It doesn't make any sense for all of these different men in Eureka to be into Lexi.
Even if the yoga retreat was a good idea, she has no right to supercede Jack as a parent by just deciding that his kid can miss three days of school. Then she compounded it by being a bitch and criticizing Jack for telling "everyone" what to do (to which he should have responded "I'm not telling everyone, I'm telling my daughter")

This this this. Not the legal guardian!!
I think they're shorthanding Lexi's "flighty hippie aunt" characterization too much.
So Lexi is basically a canonical Mary Sue? Does she have violet eyes and a perfect singing voice?
...Ooh - if she's basically a Mary Sue, then I'm sure she'll bring Stark back from the dead before you know it!

hopefully, she'll give her life for Stark's. That would work for me.
If she's indeed a Mary Sue, perhaps bringing back Stark will involve tantric sex?

Fringe: Did you guys think that Bishop, Jr. was Bishop, Sr's first experience in curing the melting virus thingy?
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?
Oh Lord, that's a bigger issue for suspension of disbelief than all the super-science. Eureka's a town of about 3,000 people, of whom at least 30 to 40 get disintegrated, melted, time displaced, or otherwise killed every year—often right before the sheriff's eyes. The only place less safe that Carter could have chosen to raise his daughter got swallowed by a giant sinkhole in 2003.

I'm thinking Joss-verse L.A. probably beats them both at this point.
