I think 2052, but I could have gotten that wrong. That number was on screen at one point.
Don't kill anyone if you don't have to. We're here to make a deal.

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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
yeah, I think it is 2052.
I thought the first two hours of "Defying Gravity" weren't terrible. But they sure as shit better explain Beta pretty soon, or I'm out. I'm more interested in the scifi than the romance.

I really like Rob Livingston, and tend to trust the projects he chooses.
I have been thinking that 'Beta' is a slightly less creepy version of the 456. I think I've been scarred.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Ron Livingston is from Cedar Rapids, IA. So is -as I found out over the weekend- Ashton Kutcher.
Iowa geek.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
What channel is Defying Gravity on?

ABC, Theo.

Huh! I've seen/heard nothing about it until now.

You know what is sad? I woke up at 3AM, realizing that I'd misspelled Ron's name. I was asleep and then I wasn't. Over a single letter. Sigh. Geekism gone bad.

Kinda like Defying Gravity, although definitely must not watch it tired or buzzed, because the time shifts make it hard to track which is present, what is past, and what's a dream. And some of the dialogue keeps me on my toes (Still haven't figured out "'You don't screw astronauts', I finally get it! Yay!!!")
I like how they make references or inside jokes to things we haven't experienced yet.

Finished this week's Defying Gravity - I like the characters and I'm interested in this Beta whatsit, but I find myself having to stomp on my disbelief quite a bit.
Also finally watched Virtuality which I liked rather a lot. Is there any hope that more will get made?
