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.
But sometimes they don't even make that bar and it does make me mad--the only episode I deleted right after watching was the P-brane one where they were stuck in the alternate dimension. That one just stank science-wise.
See, that's funny - the episode didn't even ping me. But I gave up trying to make sense of the science on this show (and many, MANY others) a while ago, so maybe I just didn't care, subconsciously. Or, I'm just easy (or dim).
though you did have to handwave where the gravity was coming from.
The gravity generators!
Defying Gravity needs to just have said that, instead of putting them in special gravity clothing. They drink out of pouches, which is all good, but they just put a tray of food down on the table like it was normal.
Someone said that some of the rooms (like the quarters) are in the rotating part of the ship, and so have their own gravity, but why does Zoe strap herself into bed then?

Bowm, boom-chucka-chucka-chucka, bowm...
P-Brane made a point that they were stuck in the elevator only going to what floor someone pressed because they were too intangible to press buttons. Didn't clear up that they weren't too intangible to fall through the floor--why bring my attention to fixing half a problem?
And pretty much everything they said sounded not just wrong, but aggressively gibberishly and uninventively impossible.
For that matter they should have been able to walk out through the elevator doors and take the damn stairs to whatever floor they wanted, if only horizontal surfaces underfoot were solid to them.
Dr Who cakes.

Wow. Especially the last one.
Is this where we discuss Being Human? Is anyone else watching it?
Makes sense to me to put it here. I've seen it already.
I am really not a fan of Annie. I called the whole Owen abuse/murder thing pretty early. She's kind of a mess.
George has some good qualities, but his neurosis is often overplayed. He does small moments well, which makes me wonder if he's being directed broadly.
I was very unhappy with Mitchell turning the little kid. He's doomed to live his life as a child, that's no way to be (I mean, we all see how Claudia turned out). I'm surprised that the mother allowed it, it was a very selfish decision on her part.
The series picks up around this point, I'd say, Vortex, as a bigger arc swings into gear.
I love Annie, though. I also called the whole murder thing, but I like the way she deals with it, or at least realizes that she has to deal with it.
