I cannot BELIEVE that's the end of LOM. I mean, seriously? Seriously?
What kind of crack were they on?
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

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.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Holy Jesus mother of God WHAT.
I was just about to post the EXACT same reaction.
Tiggy, please tell me this was a bad April Fool's joke?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I just watched the last ten minutes because I had to see it for myself.
GENETIC DNA??
IS THERE ANY OTHER KIND?
ita, the last shot was of a 1973-looking white shoe stepping onto Mars. Rather than space boots.

Well, it makes more sense than the Brit version, in a way, even if it is a bit rubbish. I take it there will be no US Ashes to Ashes. This is probably a good thing.
And speaking of which... there was an AtoA trailer on BBC1 last night. "Coming Soon".... (probably mid-April or so).
AND I saw the Doctor Who "Planet of the Dead" trailer which was posted here yesterday, so it's official. It's airing on Easter Saturday, 11th April, at 6:45 pm British time.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Oh! they could have had him wear a pair of Moon Boots!

Sounds like a Tanith Lee book. In fact, I think one of her books may have ended exactly like that.
How did the UK one end, by the way?

Sam gets back to 2008 but can't deal so he jumps off a roof.
You can decide if he winds up in 1973 or not.
Of course, Ashes to Ashes says that he did and that he also was in a coma in the present and then dies. (And dies in the past before Drake gets there.)

That's... AWFUL. What the hell? I mean sure, the guy did try to destroy the world using former humans from another time, but... what's that? Oh. Never mind.
Still awful, though.

Not just a shoe, but a loafer. And what were obviously polyester trousers.
I missed what happened before this ending, though, so I don't know if it being yet another fantasy reality is a viable option or not.

that's not entirely the end. he jumps off the roof and then we have him back in 1973 where he left off. he saves Annie, Gene, Chris and Ray. then he and Annie kiss they all continue to fight crime. i didn't love the UK ending, but it was miles better than the US.
