Warehouse 13: I really don't care for Mycah (wtf?), the way she's written and how the actress is playing her.
Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

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.

If you can trust the subtitles, her name was spelled Myka.

However it's spelled, my goodness she's whiny.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm hoping she'll stop whining now that she's chosen to work at the Warehouse.
Her lip work is incredibly distracting.

With Warehouse 13, I wasn't having 'Hey, it's that guy!' moments, but dozens of 'Hey, it's that show/movie!' moments.
The story wasn't strong enough to distract me from the derivative-ness of it. This isn't necessarily bad, imitation being the highest form of flattery and all, but the content will have to grow more compelling than the structure for me to stick with it.
I agree completely with the comments about Myka and the actress. Even more distracting than the aforementioned.

So frustrating!
I was right in the middle of watching Torchwood day 3...just finished part 2 and now it seems the rest of the episode has been pulled from utube. Days 1 & 2 are still up, so I don't get it.
Any other streaming options known?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I liked Myka.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Did we know about this?
Hot on the heels of its Emmy wins for Mad Men and Breaking Bad, the cable channel is making its move into sci-fi by developing a new series based on Red Mars, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
That paragraph had me really excited, and then I read this:
Writer-producer Jonathan Hensleigh (Armageddon, Die Hard: With a Vengeance) will be in charge of adapting Kim Stanley Robinson’s classic 1992 novel
NOooooooooooooooooooooooo!!

Not all the way through day 4: Nooooooooo! Ianto! Nooooooo!

Okay, they'd better get out their magic undo wands for that. I'm not even slightly kidding.
