Heaven forbid we have to watch any TV that forces us to use your brains, right?

Good name?

Did someone steal the remote and tie you to the chair?

Shooting his balls off would probably be more effective when it comes to preventing a supervillain offspring — probably less messy and emasculating into the bargain.

126 years can easily be five or six generations. Still, they might have had one too many.

So why is it, whenever they introduce a countdown clock as a plot device into a show or movie, they always exceed the time allotted, whether it's a Bond movie, Gravity, or now, The Flash?

It's fiction rooted in reality, not a bullshit alt-med fantasy.

Except for the fact that everyone who dies becomes a walker in the absence of a knife to the brain.
