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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Warehouse 13: Someone needs to put a leash on Claudia. Two weeks now she's almost destroyed the Warehouse. Is she really worth the risk? Shouldn't she at least get put under heavy manners?

Someone needs to put a gun to her head. She's the new Dawn.

In theory I like her interactions with Artie, when I'm not hating on Artie. It's when she's left alone and starts blowing up the joint that she irritates me.

she's too much. Did Artie really need a sidekick?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I guess the show needed a computer/tech geek, since neither Myka nor Pete can do it and Artie is stuck in a weird steampunk place. I would like Claudia better if she'd lay off the Ritalin.
The haywire vacuum cleaner reminded me of The Sorcerer's Apprentice, where another cleaning device went off on its own to wreak havoc.

Leena's too zen to play off him, I guess. They needed more spark. But you can have interesting conflict without her burning the place down every week.

He used to seem all techy, back when he was trying to track down Claudia's hacks into the system. She was better, but as soon as she came on board he became a Luddite.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Yeah, over-enthusiastic clumsy girl + warehouse full of mystical items prone to go off when bumped is not a winning combination, though I like Claudia when she's interacting with the other leads rather than triggering catastrophies.
Does Mrs. Frederick's automatic warning message mean they have detectors that can read and measure the weird energies given off by artifacts, or are they just responding to the shutdown of the neutralizing system? If the former, having a detector that would home in on objects in the field would be very handy.

Leena reminds me of Astrid on Fringe. As in, they have not a clue what to do with her.

Unfortunately I think it's the latter.
God, Astrid on Fringe is totally wasted. She's not even properly straight man to Walter's craziness. But, at worst, she's really nice to look at.
They really should put the stuff in cages, or give the shelves some sort of lips so things can't roll off so easily. And in the dark vault, close things off so people can't look at them or touch them by mistake, why don't you?
