Well, yes, at this point. But I wasn't giving an opinion, I was replying to a comment that asked about Black Canary not being around in response to suggestions that Sara isn't long for this world, and those aren't the same thing. Sara's currently using the title, but that doesn't make them synonyms any more than…

Black Canary probably is, but Sara Lance doesn't have to be Black Canary. Names like that get passed on all the time.

But you need at least *something* factual to theorize from, or the possibilities are so broad it isn't particularly productive to discuss them since there's no evidence to support any given theory over another. That's not theorizing, that's guessing.

Same here. Between the dog theme, the fairies, and the scary cat from "Yellow Fever", I was fairly sure this was going to involve Cat sìth somehow. Which resulted in some brief confusion when they started discussing snakes until I remembered I had no evidence for that theory other than the power of suggestion and my…

"And it isn't exactly his fault that your baby daddy stabbed him in the back."

Avery was clearly making stupid decisions, suspicious of people in his girlfriend's life, and really boring. For a television character, just two out of three of those would be serious, all of them is practically a capital offense.

I've always kind of thought Google worked pretty well as a name given what it does.  In addition to the mathematical connection, it also bears a strong similarity to 'goggle' — meaning to look or stare as a verb with the implication of being impressed or surprised. But I hate math, failed geometry the first time, and…

In "M." he had no problem with the fact that Watson didn't know he had hidden security cameras in the brownstone, saying she should have assumed they were there. Surveillance has been established as either something inevitable/practical or at least something that doesn't bother him/shouldn't bother other people.

@avclub-ede79a5ee534f274b5f109567e6c4722:disqus  I wouldn't say it was that much worse than the last half dozen, but then I wouldn't really call any of them "good" so I'm probably not the best judge.

@eric827:disqus  @avclub-6fd0e0526d9d0ccf474e886616e439d4:disqus Seriously? Death threats? I called Sookie ending up with Sam like four books ago, or whenever it was that hate crimes against weres and shifters started. Now granted, I wouldn't call myself a fan. More like someone reading out of morbid curiosity about…

Assuming Maya is biologically Nate's daughter it would be the second time they've conceived — it was mentioned in the same episode where she told him she was pregnant with Maya that when Nate was living in Seattle Lisa got pregnant and had an abortion. (Well, strongly implied: "We've been through this before"/"This…

Oh,  I can find the reasoning from a theoretical point of view; the problem is that we never saw him being a/the decent guy in her life and I don't find her sympathetic enough for his terrible behavior now and her nerve-shredding reaction to it to carry much emotional weight beyond 'god, these people need to split up'.

I probably would have felt worse for Lisa if she'd been with anybody but Nate. When the show was airing I didn't like him after about the first season and now that I'm older I've found I really can't stand him, so I've always ended up wondering what the hell she saw in him and seriously questioning the judgement of…

@avclub-f10e82c0a4fbd390f8e9a3dc597c779c:disqus Eh, personally I prefer ignoring the hair thing altogether. The reasoning falls flat to me for both arguments: the side that says it grows back instantly generally claims 'exactly as they were in death', but it always seems weird and annoying (I have no idea why that…

@avclub-2462a76f718c97cfa773e42865b6ae51:disqus  Yeah, it was a thing at one point. I seem to recall Eddie telling Jason that vampires can't lose weight, in addition to Jessica's situation. It's mentioned a few times in the books that vampires who died in the 1960s/70s got the short end of the stick hairwise, but the…

Pretty sure the show changed that part of the rules when they saw how incredibly ridiculous Eric looked in the season 1 wig. Personally I thought it was the right call because it was very difficult to take him even remotely seriously with that thing on his head.

As I recall the Fellowship of Sun was totally on board with killing lots of vampires. This is less 'woman scorned' and more 'she heard all the audience members who said she'd be better at running things than Steve', with some extra vitriol thrown in because he joined the very people they used to hate together.

@eric827:disqus
When you put it like that, yeah, but it doesn't need to be that extreme. I think the dialogue in the episode could easily have been toned down to be more innocuous (in hindsight) while causing much the same result, but SFU did love its dramatic misdirection filled deaths.

Totally selfish opinion here, but I actually appreciated that. Mostly because the ad for the tour was run every single commercial break, usually very first thing. (I was very close to killing my tv if I heard "So if you care to find me/Look to the western sky" one more time.)

The music business may be the only business he could still work in if he was acting like that before he was sober. We keep hearing what a genius guitarist he is, so people may have been willing to put up with it and hope he held it together long enough to finish a project — he'd be far from the first case. Plus until…
