I think you'll find they're not as recessive as you think. Skin color isn't like hair and eye color, where dark overrides light automatically except in chromosomal matches. There are actually several different genes that affect skin pigment. Look it up. And there's plenty of examples of what you get from mixed

If they cast a biracial actor to play Lil Diggle, we wouldn't be having this conversation. The character from the comics is more white than he is black or Asian, so he would look more ethnically ambiguous than Tiger Woods. The show's version had his Asian roots erased, so he should look like … Wentworth Miller.

I'm at peace with black Nick Fury, specifically the MCU version, but while I'm okay with the motivations behind it, I'm not entirely behind doing this type of thing. Nick Fury is still white in most Marvel continuities, so it's really murky and confusing keeping the characters straight when you change things that

Well, I'm sure most fans noticed he was way taller than he should be. Jackman is great and all, but there's an alternate timeline where he's played by a chainsmoking Scott Foley.

The hell? That's some classic goalpost moving there. He did not die there. Gallifrey gave him a bunch of new regeneration energy with their time lord-seeking long distance regeneration cannon. Trenzalore was in ruins, the TARDIS was dead and the Doctor's body turned into some sort of quantum rift (which did not happen

I don't know much about him, but my statement still stands based on the author's comments as well as stuff like black Jimmy Olsen, who doesn't even have the personality of Jimmy Olsen (but to be fair, Supergirl herself and every other character of DC origin on that show are nothing like their source material either).

But those things appeared in exactly one episode. The Doctor freaking died in Trenzalore and they basically erased that with no consequences. And what about that time they rescued those Pompeii victims? And they come up with a new feature for regeneration energy every two years or so. And what about Clara having a

Thank you for adding absolutely nothing to the discussion. All I got out of this was a flaccid insult. Maybe you make life decisions based on TV shows, but I don't because I'm not a child.

Have you seen Doctor Who? In series 1, creating a paradox summons these demon time keeper pterodactyls. And on multiple occasions, they've said that the presence of the TARDIS creates a time lock that prevents further intervention in that time. And then we have the Doctor crossing his own timestream (The Impossible

I really hate Jax. Maybe Robbie Amell is made of wood, but he's at least an extremely likable wood, like oak or pine. Was beyond disgusted by him raging from petty, possessive jealousy when Palmer is just being friendly, rightfully calling it "high school". And then Stein goes out of his way to be a wing man. Jax is

That's bullshit. Putting aside how absolutely ridiculous the demand for pointless secrecy is in the first place, Felicity is only happy if Oliver chooses her over his own son. Fuck her.

Neal McDonough?

I'd give this one a C+. The exhausting William storyline was always annoying, contrived and obvious fake conflict that the writers didn't otherwise understand how to generate organically. When Felicity regained her ability to walk and then immediately walked out on him, I started laughing. Praise for Amell's speech

I disagree that SHIELD's writers are worse. It's not a great show, but the humor tends to land more often than not and many of the characters are more endearing and complex than those on Supergirl. Season two had a pretty bad lull in the middle with a lot of dry exposition dumps and little if any humor, but most of

I'm not most people and people should not strive to be most people. Perhaps why I said that first half of that sentence is because of the second half of that sentence: "…so it goes away and Kara Zor-El eventually gets the show she deserves." Supergirl is an awesome character, but she's a whiny wimp in this and

I've never heard those complaints. I've heard the opposite. Jimmy Olsen is supposed to be a dork. So they stunt casted a black actor and turned him into Captain Sexy. And they're so fucking weird about his non-chemistry with Kara that Lucy becomes a jealous girlfriend cliche. Way to go, writers.

I feel that real difficult choices are the kind where a "right" decision is impossible to make. The 100 demonstrated it masterfully at the end of last season. The same can be said of Jack Harkness' decision at the end of Torchwood: Children of Earth. Supergirl is too childish to have a compelling narrative with such

In a world where we have Buffy Summers, Peggy Carter, Jessica Jones, Liv Moore, Clark The100owitz and various, various other examples of awesome female protagonists, no, you do not get a break for being mediocre. Saying that a poorly written, poorly executed show is good for society is like releasing all the violent

What part of "I give up" do you not understand?

I agree with the author, though. It would have landed better if he killed her with his hands. People prone to violence use their hands in crimes of passion. People who use weapons kill premeditated.
