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.
Vee was complaining on LJ about how the women died in this one, but it really didn't bother me because usually in this show it's the men who die.
It didn't bother me either. We had five women who featured in last night's storyline. Six if you count Shirley Manson. Seven if you count Cameron. That's pretty extraordinary.
I think it's interesting that we never saw who it was that was after Parker.
Suppose THAT was Derek wouldn't that be confusing.
Huh. I thought it might be Cameron, but I admit I didn't pay attention to how far away Sarah was from home.
SCC is a show I'd love to catch up on on DVD when it's over, but I just don't have the time or stamina to keep up with live. HIMYM (in the same time slot) is easier on my brain.
New BSG teaser.
Also, Charisma Carpenter is going to be in a new scifi movie "House of Bones" with Corin Nemec. She plays a ghosthunter.
I'm curious as to what Alan Parker meant by saying that he was really a waitress and then the cliffhanger at the end.
Was Alan really Sarah?
Are we supposed to be thinking that?
sumi, that's the weird impression I got, but I couldn't make sense of it. Much like the most of the episode.
Sarah from an alternate timeline?
Do you think Michael Shanks is bitter that he's doing Sci-Fi movies called things like "Lost Treasure of the Grand Canyon"? With Shannen Doherty?
He also had recurring guest roles recently on Burn Notice and 24, so I guess he's enjoying a fairly varied career.
At least it's not "Mega-Snake".
Just finished watching Chuck. I'm getting more than a little tired of Chuck's whole "I have to save Sarah" bullshit. Too many times, she sends him away to be safe, he comes back because he's "worried about her". What. the. fuck. She is a trained CIA agent, he's just some guy who opened an email, and he's supposed to protect her? @@ Maybe this time, he will learn his lesson.
I don't know why she lied though. She could have just said "we got the agent. I had to shoot him, though". Which is technically true. This bullshit about arresting is stupid. Oh yeah, and your dog got sent to a farm in the country where he can run and play all day.
I think it's just that, for Chuck, it was so clearly an assassination-style murder from someone who usually insists to Casey that they bring in the agent/suspect/criminal for justice. But I liked the unbalanced implication that Chuck cares enough about Sarah to give her something that belonged to his mother, and Sarah cares enough about Chuck to kill a clear and dangerous threat to him. I found it fitting, and also why Chuck/Sarah will never, ever work out. I agree that I'll be very bored very fast if they milk Chuck's angst about it for longer than an episode; he's clearly starting to go from playing at being a spy to understanding (and accepting) what being a spy means, which is one of the things I've liked about this season. And I'll be annoyed if they try to have Chuck shy away from that out of some unreal sense of fear--I just won't buy it anymore, not after all the things he's seen and done.
