Willow ,'The Killer In Me'
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.
I loved one of the early scenes, where Slade and Captain Boomerang and Nyssa were all in the scene, meaning there were actually three Spartacus alums at the same time. I have a few other casting suggestions, if they're taking submissions.
Also very satisfying: Lance clubbing Black Siren, "for so many reasons."
Barry's stupidity is frustrating because we're supposed to believe he's an intelligent guy. He's a forensic scientist. Felicity Smoak (possibly the smartest person in the Arrowverse short of the various non-HR Wellses) talks of admiring Barry's brains. Yet we never see it. He just makes one bone-headed mistake after another.
And I realize part of it is that Barry's speed makes him difficult to challenge physically. But there's got to be a better way to handle it beyond Barry constantly scoring own goals. (It would also help if they were more consistent with their application of their time travel rules. It's difficult to tell sometimes when Barry is doing something stupid even though he should know better or he's doing something stupid because the rules aren't applying in the same way to that instance.)
The writers of the DCAU managed to write Superman for years without making him a dunce to compensate. (Then again, their Wally!Flash did a lot of dumb stuff, too.)
ETA: I still like Barry, I just wish the writers didn't saddle him with the idiot ball so often.
I think I might be done with all the D.C. shows.
Dude, Logan Echolls on iZombie.

I know! I let out a little squeal, I won't lie. He's the whassherface, the dead CEO's brother, right?
I gotta say it was nice to see Blaine back on form again. The pretending-to-be-redeemed Blaine all season bored my pants off. Although it was sort of worth it to see Peyton pull the rug from under him. "I'm a lawyer, remember?"
I'm like 8 episodes behind in Arrow and who knows if I'll even catch up. 'Tis a sad state of things given that it was my favourite show on TV 3 years ago. Ah well.
Vonnie, that finale was worth watching and maybe a couple of the episodes leading up to it.
He's the whassherface, the dead CEO's brother, right?
Yes. He wasn't lit great, but I kept thinking I recognized that squirrelly face.
I gotta say it was nice to see Blaine back on form again.
I did not think I would be that glad to see him again, but it was pretty satisfying. Poor David Anders must be tired of bleaching his hair.
So, um, has there been an explanation that I forgot about why some zombies turn pasty white and some don't?
I believe they all turn white but some colorize to pass as human.
Plus, I think it had something to do with how long it takes them to get their first taste of brains.
That really wasn't much of a cliffhanger, Arrow. Sheesh. We have watched TV before, you know. Also, are we supposed to actually believe Malcolm died? Not only was it fuckin' Malcolm, but it was off-screen. He's so not dead. (UGH. JUST KILL HIM ALREADY.)
That said: It was raining on my face a couple times last night, and all because of Oliver completing his hero's journey. (when he forgives himself for Robert's death. I AM SO PROUD OF HIM.) Stop doing the thing with your face, Amell. Jesus.
