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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
We're up to the Ooops, Threesome! episode of The Magicians*, and Tim said "Okay, cheating on your partner is not cool...but they are so damn hot, I'd fuck them."
Me: "Same, baby. Hard same."
We are very shallow.
*I'm up to the finale of S2 on my own, because Tim worked nights last week and the only thing that could get my mind off the goddamn pandemic was multiple episodes a night.
I watched the first episode of Kingdom the other night and was pleasantly surprised by the quality and how easy it was to become absorbed in the story. I think I'd be enjoying it even if there weren't any fantastical elements.
Mini-donuts: Did J.K. Rowling BUY the SyFy network? Every time I channel surf past or look at a programming guide it's playing one of the Harry Potter movies.
Oh, you guys, The Magicians. I miss them already.
What the fuck, S3 finale of The Magicians? WHAT THE FUCK.
(I mean, I'll be honest: I'm spoiled all the way through the end of the series. Even so, seeing
the Monster in Eliot
was fucked up.)
Did anyone else see the season premiere of
What We Do in the Shadows
? The ghosts episode had me rolling on the floor! So good to see Jeff back again (well, sort of).
I don't have cable, so I hadn't seen Battlestar Galactica when it was new, but it's now on a (free) broadcast channel so I've been enjoying it. However, with the opening about the Cylons having a plan it hit me - is Elizabeth Warren a Cylon? she always has a plan ....
I've been wanting to rewatch BSG, and somewhere I own the DVDs. The balance is watch the currently broadcast episodes, or find the dang DVDs and hook up a player since I don't even have that setup at the moment. I miss the awesome music from that series.
I love the music. And I'm enjoying the show - I'd watched the original version and I think the newer one is better.
(I own the BSG soundtrack CD)
I think it's interesting how much BSG relied on Firefly's innovations--there are numerous visual tributes, in fact, in one of the early episodes when Roslin is waiting in her doctor's office, Serenity passes over the skylight. But Bear McCreary picked up on Greg Edmondson's multi-national music intercutting and improved on it. And of course, there were a few, early-on instances of silent explosions in space. It used to bug me that everybody was using new tech from Firefly...but now I see it as tribute.
Um--sorry for the OT
