I love that they had to remind us who Joey Lawrence is.

I’m probably the only femslasher who still watches this show post-Clexa, but I’m excited for the fifth season. I love YA dystopian science fiction.

I’m still mad about Wells.

The 100 is like a YA-take on Battlestar Galactica, so I love it. It’s about as uneven as BSG too (minus BSG’s perfect first season).

I feel like Anissa on Black Lightning is safe since I don’t think they’d kill off any members of the Pierce family, but who knows with the CW.

Not recent, but I’d love to see a Netflix reboot of Animorphs, set in the 1990s. I think TV is finally willing to go as dark as the source material, though they’d probably have the age the kids up from middle-schoolers to high schoolers.

I haven’t really watched much TNG, but I get the sense that DS9 is even dealing with the consequences of the Enterprise’s actions.

I probably should go track down the Ensign Ro episodes of TNG to give myself some context for DS9 since it is my second favorite TV show ever.

On the Batgirl post, I just posted the link to the video where Charisma Carpenter discusses being fired for getting pregnant, so we’ll see if I get flamed there. I have been flamed in the past for sharing that video on a Joss thread, but that was several years pre-#MeToo.

Charisma Carpenter discussed leaving Angel at Dragon Con in 2009 at 6 minutes in:

The fact that Xander and Dawn end up together in the comics makes me hate Xander even more when I go back and watch the TV show. I can’t help but feel like their friendship in the later seasons was him grooming her.

They lost me when they brought back Warren but not Tara.

When I watched Buffy, I found it entertaining, but just couldn’t see why everyone found it so feminist. I was already aware of how he fired Charisma Carpenter for getting pregnant, so I wasn’t that surprised when his ex-wife’s letter came out expanding on the shitty things he has done.

It’s been years since I read the Buffy comics, but I recall she slept with the slayer Satsu, and had a good time but decided she was straight. It struck me as the “experimenting in college” trope. I know some people explore bisexuality and decide they are gay or straight and that’s cool, but if this experimentation…

Probably from euthanized pets.

In the episode where Ash Tyler was introduced, Lorca made a comment about Ash not having the right anatomy to please L’Rell. I thought this, and the two pee streams, meant the Klingons had two members.

Airiam is apparently a human cyborg. I was hoping we’d see a fully-human version in the mirror verse. Regardless, I look forward to getting to know her better next season, and the rest of the bridge crew.

I also assumed his lack of a West-African French accent was evidence they were in a simulation. This show is pretty good at continuity, since they established he was a professor in Australia last season and kept that up now.

If you think Zack Handlen hates Discovery, don’t read Katharine Trendacosta’s reviews on io9. She quit recently and I thought they’d get someone fair-minded to review DSC, but she came back as a freelancer just go crap on this show. It got me to venture out to read the AV Club reviews instead.

HAH! I haven’t watched that series. I grew up near Renton and live in Seattle proper now.

Watching iZombie takes me back to the Dark Angel days, in all the best ways. That and The Sentinel, which according to Wikipedia was set in the specific unincorporated suburb I grew up in.
