I love him, but I always picture him in "The Long Kiss Goodnight" -- "I should think that whatever he is attempting to dislodge is either gone for good, or there to stay." As a result, I always associate him with a dog licking its anus obsessively.
Can't you ever get your mind out of the hellmouth?

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.

Yeah, Brian Cox was excellent. They're really going for Milch-lite with this show, and that's not necessarily a bad thing.
Did I mention I finally caught the BSG finale last night? Blah blah blah. I was a little afraid they'd choke, and that they did. Gotta say that I called the whole "we are the children of both" thing back in, like, season 2, though.

I first liked Brian Cox in the first few Sharpe's movies that I saw on PBS back in the mid 90s (yummy Sean Bean in tight uniform pants, waving a sword around and fighting both the enemy and his own men)--Cox was great as Wellington's number two guy who took Sharpe under his very manipulative wing.

Reaper: FINALLY Sam's dad makes a reappearance. And, yet, from the previews, it looks like it might be dropped again for how ever-many weeks.

I can't figure out Michelle's secret either.
At this point, I'm assuming she is actually Brian Cox's daughter and, in exchange for being raised with the king, made some sort of promise about not marrying so there would be no competing heirs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
He's been in prison for 30 years, hasn't he?

I missed where it had been that long. Granddaughter maybe?

Oh, good call. I like this theory. (Even if the "Don't you remember YOUR VOW???" scene was one of the worst examples of "As we both know, Bob" writing I've ever seen.)

It was a damn weird scene. It was so over-expositiony and yet at the same time Lost-level audience-taunting. "As we both know..." dunh dunh DUNNNNH, "so I won't say it."

I was guessing that Silas's girlfriend is Abbadon's daughter. The other half of the photo would show her son.
