There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I've now watched Fugitive of the Judoon. I'm a big fan of when Doctor Who just goes wall-to-wall WTF? (Preferably when it works, but respect even when it doesn't.) I was spoiled (largely because the title led me to expect another Davies retrospective), but still got chills on the TARDIS reveal.

Our wings are not tired.

I finally sat down and streamed quite a few episodes of The Magicians. I think through S2E4. All I can say for the moment is that it is excellent distraction.

Still have to catch up on the last couple Doctor Who.

My focus for reading seems to have deteriorated, so working through the series I meant to watch but didn't get around to previously list.

I can't explain the sequence of events that have led to this, but I've been reading TONS of fanfic for The Magicians recently even though I've never watched it (though I did read the first 2 books). I think I need to watch it -- where is it streaming?

Netflix.

It's not a comedy, but I think it's the funniest show on TV.

Also the end of S4 is one of the saddest TV episodes I've seen lately.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

The most recent ep of Magicians had me absolutely bawling.

Netflix.

Right on. I'll check it out.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

There are 5 seasons? But I watched a couple of episodes of season 1 and drifted away meaning to get back to it and surely that was just a few months ago...

That was a typo, I meant the end of S4. Season 5 just started a couple of weeks ago.

There are certainly a number of comedic characters. I'm further behind than you, but Eliot, the Dean, and the Antarctica dude are particularly amusing to me.
