'Potential'
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.
I don't understand why the fruit rots, since it presumably wasn't rotted before it went into the pie.
the fruit is rotting, but Ned brings it back to life, so the fruit in his pie is always totally ripe. If he eats the pie, the fruit goes back to its natural state. If he makes the pie with naturally ripe fruit, it should be fine.
That's right. Ned touches the fruit to make it fresh before putting it into the pie. When he touches it again to eat it, the fruit "dies" again and becomes rotten.
Early last season, they showed Ned specifically using rotten fruits that he brought back to make his pie. (I remember them then showing that the daisies in his windowbox were dead.) I guess maybe it's a way to extend the life of your ingredients? Or to save money by buying older fruit.
(Of course, not all fruit "dies" when it comes off the vine, right? Perhaps I should handwave more...)
(wow, that was an excellent x-post...)

Ah, I forgot about that. I even saw that episode.
Presumably he can go to the farmer's markets and buy the rotted fruit for a song!

How can he do that with Olive in the nunnery? Bah dum, BUM!
Upcoming Scifi Movie Classics:
The deal includes basic cable rights for five new horror and thriller projects. Two of the films have already wrapped production on location in Romania, including Hellhounds, directed by Ricky Schroder (Andromeda Strain, 24). Set in 500 B.C., Hellhounds stars Scott Elrod (Men in Trees) as a Greek warrior who fights against the demonic hellhounds of Hades in order to rescue his bride (Amanda Brooks, My Best Friend's Girl) and bring her back to life.
Rise of the Gargoyle has also just completed production. It stars Eric Balfour (24, Six Feet Under) as a struggling author in Paris who finds himself face to face with a horrific monster a real live version of the stone gargoyles he's devoted his life to studying. Rise of the Gargoyle is directed by Bill Corcoran (Atomic Twister, Vipers).
Production on the following films, also to be shot on location in Romania, is set to begin shortly:
Alien Western - Set in an old west town in the 1890's, monstrous buglike machines from another world attack anyone who gets in their way;
Carney Based on the Jersey Devil legend, a fiendish carnival sideshow attraction, half-animal and half-devil, escapes and terrorizes the denizens of a Depression-era Mid-Atlantic town;

Ha ha ha. That's Tremors meets Manticore !
Anyone watch the American Life on Mars last night? I didn't hate it, but I don't know if I'll be adding it to my roster. It was disconcerting to watch a show that looked very much like the show I knew, and followed very nearly the same exact script, but with (inconsistent) New York accents instead of Mancunian accents. Well, and with no John Simm or Philip Glenister.
The moment with the Twin Towers was pretty well done, I thought.
