did anyone else think that it was weird that they never mentioned The Inside?
Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

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.

Um, no because I kind of forgot it too.
But I understand why they brought up Firefly - that's kind of a phenomenon and the Inside never got that far.

Wow, BSG was kind of kickass. Pity about the trailers for next week, though. Damn those SciFi trailer-monkeys.

I don't watch those things anymore. I think someone spoiled me as to some of the purported content, but I don't trust the monkeys anyway.
Why can't everyone take a cue from the BBC? I love that Doctor Who two-parters deliberately roll the credits before the preview in case you don't want to watch it, and then, on top of that, the preview never actually addresses the cliffhanger. In fact, if a character's fate is in peril at the end, they don't show the character AT ALL in the preview, which is awesome.

When BSG does the opening previews I close my eyes until the drumbeats quit and when the "Next time on Battlestar Galactica" voiceover guy starts talking after an episode I quickly grab the remote and change the channel while going "la-la-la" and squinting my eyes. Stupid monkeys, I don't wanna know!

FWIW, I've been known to pause and slo-mo my way through the opening blipvertsflashes, because they're carefully chosen by the producers so they run out of context or just give you a quick and perhaps wrong idea of what is coming.
Totally different when it's stupid SciFi Channel spoiling next week.

Oh, I love the Poundry Drums of Spoilery Doom. They promised excitement, and the episode delivered.

Mo Ryan interviews Mark Verheiden and then gives her impression of "The Oath."
Also - what if Ellen isn't the fifth?
And the fifth, still in shadow, will claw toward the light, hungering for redemption that will only come in the howl of terrible suffering.
It was pointed out on TWOP that this could be a good description of Gaeta.

I strongly suspect Ellen isn't the Fifth. It's not enough of a surprise, given that she's already dead. Also, the only one to whom she's important is Tigh, and there's a very good chance he's dead.
