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.

Personally, I think that ME was WAY more evil than Vista

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Oh, jeez, I can't believe I forgot to post this the other day.

So, I'd been watching Torchwood: CoE on the laptop while I did chores and puttered and whatnot. Occasionally, the Punk would wander by and ask questions, like:

"What's that thing in the box? Why is it squirting goop? Dis-GUS-ting!"

"Who's that man in the jacket? Why is he kissing that other man?"

And I'd answer honestly. You know: "That's an alien named 456 and, yes, the goop is disgusting." "That's Captain Jack Harkness and he's kissing the other man because they love each other" etc. etc.

But I hadn't really clued into how much she picked up until a few days ago. I go downstairs and she's been painting and paint (thankfully, watercolors) are everywhere. I say "Emeline! Didn't I tell you to be careful?! Look at this mess!"

She looks at me with wide eyes, glances around wildly, looks at me again...then goes glassy-eyed, points over my shoulder and says "We are coming! We are coming! We are coming!"

I helped her clean up the paint after I was done being crippled with laughter.

Never let her get her hands on a gas mask.

Maybe Emeline should start small, like with an alpaca or guanaco?

I'm just glad she didn't see that part.
