Flash showrunner suspended over "a pattern of alleged sexual harassment".
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.
I was about to say that's disappointing, until I saw this on the same site:
George Takei has now been accused of sexually assaulting someone in 1981.
If true, that's really disappointing.
It's all disappointing. Everything is terrible.
I have a secret, very short list of men in the public eye who, if it turns out they are sexual predators, will just gut me.* Beyond them, I'm pretty much braced for every other goddamn man in politics or Hollywood to turn out to be a total shitbag.
*(Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Lin-Manuel Miranda. Come through for me, guys. Come through. t edit Okay, Mr. The Rock being a sexual predator would make me sad, too, now that I think of it.)
The Arrowverse allegations was apparently widely known and I am seeing a lot of the fandom people I follow assert that there are others in that production sphere. All horrible.
The fact that they hired Jerkules on one of the DC shows proved to me that Berlanti pays zero attention to chauvinist and harassing behavior on those soundstages.
Sorbo? ugh I didn't know they hired him. gross

That is pretty much my list too. I am pretty braced for almost anyone else, but if Obama or LMM have any issues, I am pretty much done with the world.

My list is basically David Attenborough.
Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Lin-Manuel Miranda
I'm nervous to even write down my own list (which definitely includes these three) because I'd feel compelled to Google first, and I don't want to find anything!
