This is why I've essentially stopped buying anything on iTunes: everything I try to purchase tells me I need to upgrade. I'm not spending $1200 on a new laptop so my 99¢ Of Montreal song purchase can go through, Mr. Jobs.
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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I enjoyed the latest Eureka but agree that they're being too pushy with Lexie. Thought CFerg was fantastic. Such great, well-modulated reactions. I might possibly be warming a little to Carter/Allison, but, damn, I miss Stark. I actually think Zane and Zoe have some chemistry, also, fun alliteration. Zoe's bickerson friend/boyfriend seemed like some kind of set up... I wonder if BF and BFF are going to break her heart. I'm probably over thinking it. There was something with Fargo that made me laugh and laugh, but now I can't think of it.
In Fringe I was totally surprised by Scott being a baddie. I thought he was going to buy it from minute 1, in fact he lived much longer than I'd been guessing. However, I wonder about how the character played his reactions in the storage yard. He certainly didn't look like he was chasing a guy he'd been threatening on the phone a little bit before. And his subconscious showed no traces of his treachery when Olivia went on her jaunt?
I'm afraid my feelings for Lexie are such that I've started hoping she gets eaten by particularly dreadful bit of science gone bad. All of the guys falling over her makes me think that the town of Eureka is seriously short of women.
Also, surely any child raised in Eureka is told "Don't push any strange buttons" more often than "Look both ways before crossing the street."
I'm beginning to suspect Lexie is there to make us not pray for Zane's demise.
I am enjoying trying to figure out the overarching mystery that Thorne is involved in. And just seeing Frances Fisher on my screen every week is awesome. Though more of her would be great. Love seeing her with Jack, how they're constantly sizing each other up. Definitely get the impression that neither has quite made up his/her mind about the other yet, which is kind of cool.

So very agreed.

This. So much this. I hope they run with it. It could be an interesting replacement for the Jack/Nathan dynamic (sob!).

It's possible that I'm completely misremembering, but I thought that way back at the beginning when Jack stumbled into Eureka a big deal was made out of the idea that the town was a Big Fat Secret, its location was secret, everything that happened there had to be secret, and that everyone who stayed there had to contribute through a scientific or service-oriented perspective. I suppose Jack told Lexxie where to find them, but why is she being allowed to move in, and why is she being give free reign to run around the town and in and out of all the facilities?
Maybe there's an unspoken vetting process?
"Rule number one of the Eureka vetting process is no one mentions the Eureka vetting process."
I'm beginning to suspect Lexie is there to make us not pray for Zane's demise.
She's just making me pray that whichever one of them gets zapped first is standing close enough to the other to take him or her out with the resultant explosion/shrapnel/swarm of deadly nannites/cloud of radioactive patchouli.
