'Shells'
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.
Oh, now I've got to get The Librarians on DVD. I wouldn't be surprised if there were missing scenes in the aired version. Some things were kinda jarring, and I seem to remember John Rogers mentioning it on Twitter. But I could be wrong. Still, having Librarians on DVD would not be a bad thing.
Streaming is great, but having the thing is better. If you have room.

The commentaries point out several places where the broadcast version didn't show scenes. Not big stuff, but definitely informative for plot and character development. Sadly, the S2 DVDs don't have commentaries, and the extra features are TNT promotional stuff, bah. One funny thing in the commentaries is that the directors had to tell Christian Kane to be less good at fighting in the early episodes.
Barry was a moron? Must be Tuesday.
"Cassandra, please don't fangirl over the archvillain!"
The stuff with Victor Garber and Rory in Mission Control, oh my god.
Yeah, it was fun.
That said, how much research does it take to know that there were no seats in the lunar module*. Yeesh! Just watch Apollo 13.
* that really ought to be in asscaps, because I shouted it at the TV.
I'm still not in love with this season of Arrow, but last night's episode definitely improved the season a lot for me. Now that Team Arrow knows that Adrian Chase is Prometheus, Josh Segarra gets to cut loose, and I really like how he chews the scenery almost as much as Malcolm Merlyn but is as menacing as Slade Wilson. With a wide streak of Christian Bale in "American Psycho."
Also, I had to laugh that Prometheus takes his day job more seriously than ALL of Team Arrow takes theirs.
Finally, this whole season has been worth it for Anatoly's "bat" comment and asking Ollie "What's that thing you're doing with your voice?"
Reading that makes me want to see a superhero who disguises his voice with vocal fry.
We laughed so hard at that "voice" comment, Tep!

If I get to yell "I love Anatoly!" at least once, I count an Arrow episode a win. MVP.
