I agree. I was frustrated at how long it took to get any growth for his character, but I really liked where they were going towards the end.
Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

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.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Oh gosh, me too.
I thought they did a great, if laborious, job developing that character.

I can chalk it up to Teen Hormone Syndrome, and it doesn't bother me at all. Granted, it was about as much fun as living with a teenager with THS, but there were distractions that were worth the pain.

Thomas Dekker, as much as people didn't like the John character, really is an actor. Have you seen him in interviews? That voice! High-pitched and anxious...not John at all.
oh, no! I remember being shocked when they did the April Fool's jokes.

That is exactly the video I saw that made me go, whoa. He was sweet and gracious, but that voice!

I'm so happy that Chuck has been renewed! Has there been any word yet on Reaper?

Fiona, yep, I'm watching Ashes to Ashes. It's been good so far. I wasn't too impressed with the previous season, which seemed to lack the wonderful ambiguity of Life on Mars - but it feels like they're starting to re-establish that this season. But, yeah, the little references to Sam Tyler have piqued my curiosity. Are they going to have a big reveal about him, or about the real nature of the universe in which Sam and Alex were/are trapped?

Very classy post from him. I'll miss the show even more now.

Seconded.
It just occurred to me that if Firefly had gotten even the run that Buffy had, he probably would have had to pick a different actress to play Cameron (a run like Angel's would probably have been done just in time).
