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.
I appreciated the effort they put into wrapping up as much they could, though -- it was thoughtful closure for the characters and respectful of the fans.
(Would have preferred to have the stuff planned for the next season, though. Ned's father! Olive, dealing with learning about Ned's special power! And you know that Chuck would have separation problems with her aunts when they weren't on tour! And so on!)
I loved, though, that we got a CGI sweeping tour of the places we've been on the show, which made me choke up as much as the actual goodbyes -- and that we got a very last shot of Digby running through the flowers.
Yup, Theo is me. I think they made a valiant effort scrounging together odds and ends of footage and gave us about as much closure as was possible.
But DAMNIT, next season would have been so good!
Primeval has been cancelled:

Well, that makes sense in the way that making a Big Screen version of the show didn't.
Season 4 of Torchwood likely a go - depending on how this summer's mini does.
I really hope Children of Earth goes well, not only because I like the show, but because I want them to be rewarded for thinking through the airing schedule and DVD release. It seems like and anti-piracy plan, but in a positive way.
From the Primeval article: "High-quality drama remains a key part of the ITV schedule although our current focus is on post-watershed productions,"
Which watershed? What does that even mean?
The watershed in British tv is 9pm. It's the invisible dividing line between family and adult programming.
Most high-rated shows are actually pre-watershed, including all the soaps and Doctor Who. ITV are saying that they're no longer trying to compete with the BBC in the family Saturday Who/Robin Hood/Merlin slot, at least not with more drama. They'll probably slap on a reality show instead.

Pushing Daisies.
sigh ... I missed the last episode. My transition to digital, um, didn't. I think it's that I need a digital antenna. Most annoying. (What's actually MOST annoying is that in unplugging stuff, my DVD player now requires that I reset everything ... but without a TV signal it won't let me; so I've been deprived of TV and DVDs. boy do those diamond shoes pinch!)
