Could have done a better job of de-aging Spiner, though. It's not like they have to worry about the uncanny valley here.
Boxed Set, Vol. VI: I am not a number, I am a free thread!
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.
There's a Watchmen trailer, too. link
That last shot! Apparently HBO is keeping mum about who is playing Dr. Manhattan. Smart move to get people talking. That cast is v. promising. I love Regina King (excuse me, ACADEMY AWARD WINNING actress Regina King), plus Jeremy Irons and Jean Smart! Ooooh.
There is also Snowpiercer trailer out of SDCC: [link]
That show has been in development for years and I didn't think it was happening. The aesthetics hew very close to the Bong Joon Ho film, looks like. I think... tentative yay?

If they were rebooting the lasers and capes version it might be worth it for a laugh, but I see no reason to revisit the 2004 version, which it sounds like they're doing.
From io9: In the wake of this morning's news, Esmail took to Twitter to clarify his show is not a remake of the 2004 series, or seemingly even the 1978 version. Instead, it is a "new story within the mythology"
Dunno
In other words, Caprica.
Why not a remake of Buck Rogers or Logan's Run? Mumble mumble people keep going back to same trough mumble mumble.
How about an Alien Nation TV-series reboot? I think you could use that show to make a lot of commentary on our current political climate.
Karl Urban as Sikes. Hell, get Michael Ealy to play George so we get the two of them having cop car conversations again, which were the best part of Almost Human.
