I loved that he got into the game enough to start suggesting his own candidates. Buh-bye, plausible deniability!

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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
In the Declassified for this week's Torchwood (2.04), they say that they had actually intended for Rhys to stay dead in 1.13, but they liked Kai Owen so much that they decided to keep him around.
I can't decide whether I'm more impressed that they had the sense to not kill him or disappointed that they were planning to kill him in the first place.

All is well that ends in pizza.
And and i finally saw the first ep of Season 2 Torchwood.
It does look like Jack's year with the Doctor helped him drop some of the baggage.
Oh, and the whole "miss me?" thing was so S2x01 Buffy.

Our wings are not tired.
Finally saw Torchwood 2x4. Owen's snappy green apron and Gwen's pretty red shirt made for a bright opening. Loved having a Rhys episode! Whee! Good damn decision not to kill Rhys. His presence adds a nice layer to Gwen's character. Brokenhearted over the poor meaty alien. Loves on vegetables. Surprisingly I felt for Owen and the tough task.
SGA was loads of fun.
Matt, I'll get 3&4 out to you.

Also, Tosh's continued fawning over Owen is so painful and watch from the hall. She needs somebody deserving. sniff.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I've never seen Woodward sober at a convention. The last time I saw him he ranted about Angel being crap, then fell over. He IS a lovely guy, though. He also downloads stuff he's been off in BitTorrent, as the networks won't send him it. Which totally makes me love him a little.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Watched Ashes to Ashes and not feeling the large love. It does have a lot to live up to, but we have her waking up in the year I moved to London. It's very distracting. I'll not give up on it for an ep or two yet, though. In which time they'd be well served easing off the Miami Vice shit.
Oh, and what the fuck was up with that hair in the SGA preview for next week?

Saw tonight's BBCA airing of TORCHWOOD and basically all I have to say is good episode and poor Tosh.

Oh, I didn't mean to imply that he wasn't a nice guy, or that he was a mean drunk. (He was apparently sober and very sweet the one time I met him.) But showing up at scheduled public appearances so sloshed that you can barely speak coherently is not a good sign. And his drastically changed appearance since 2004 says it isn't just a case of drinking to calm the nerves at the occasional con—when I first saw his Pegasus 3 photos I thought they were of J. J. Abrams having a really bad day. I find myself kinda hoping he has friends and family willing to stage an intervention.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Jon, is this the promo you were talking about earlier?
Sorry, I haven't read the thread in the last couple of days, to avoid the Torchwood 2.04 talk.
Anyhoo, that's not the exact promo, since that one seems to have aired before any of Torchwood S2 aired, and the one I saw aired immediately after 2.01, but it's similar enough and has the casting spoiler.
