We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

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.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Wes Studi and Ian McShane? That's some fairly awesome casting.

Ah, well. I'll probably follow P-C's lead here: I currently have way too many shows to watch.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

The thing about Kings is that it was a bit TOO faithful to the Biblical referent. I mean down to the naming of Silas' kids! It was just a bit too on the nose for me.

I think the pilot dragged in spots. I'm interested, but I think they need to slow down a bit because I didn't expect Goliath to be a non-entity this quickly.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Is Kings available online somewhere now?

Our wings are not tired.

I think I'll wait and see how the ratings are and how many of my friends are watching and talking about it.

We got home too late to watch, but it seemed a good plan to wait and see what the thoughts were about it first anyway. I can't say I need another show to watch.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

SyFy? SY-fucking FY?????

Sometimes rebranding can go too far. This is one of those times.

I seriously hope they open the bar before the upfronts presentation tonight, because if I have to keep a straight face while being told:

“We couldn’t own Sci Fi; it’s a genre,” said Bonnie Hammer, the former president of Sci Fi who became the president of NBC Universal Cable Entertainment and Universal Cable Productions. “But we can own Syfy.”

...I will need a VERY stiff drink.

Wow.

“The testing we’ve done has been incredibly positive,” Mr. Howe said of the Syfy name, reading what he described as a comment from one participant: “If I were texting, this is how I would spell it.”

Just...no. NO.
