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.

I loved Black Lightning! I hope the quality stays up there.
So much for a lighter season of the Flash. That was depressing and also somehow boring st the same time.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I'm planning to watch Black Lightning tomorrow. Glad it's starting out good.
I honestly don't know if I'll watch the Flash, because I kind of don't care about this season. Maybe, though.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
And The Magicians keeps the Buffy references coming.
This season feels disconnected compared to S2, and somehow the stakes don't feel as high. I still love the show, but this season hasn't coalesced yet for me.

I'm catching up on this season's X-Files. Of all the things that could throw me out of it, watching a college math instructor work with transparencies on an overhead projector seems to have done the trick. I'm pretty sure my university hasn't had overhead projectors for a decade. There are loads of ways to project whatever's on your computer or tablet as well as a bunch of smart boards. Oh, I'll keep watching; it's a case of throwing me out of the moment, not the series. But lordy.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
If it helps, both the university and the community college I teach at have document cameras as part of the AV system, which are functionally equivalent to overhead projectors, and the university still has a few actual overhead projectors for use in rooms without built-in AV systems (old buildings, limited budget).

Damn, yes, Black Lightning was really good. Including the music.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Wait wait, are you telling me that John Constantine has been on LoT this whole time and I didn't know? Is he played by Matt Ryan ?
