The 100's doing slightly better than Reign, but since The CW is probably eager to make more DC shows at this point, something's gotta get the axe.

Yeah the ratings for the crossovers were great, we just have to hope they can restrain themselves enough to keep making good ones.

The 100 has an odd funding issue that makes it's rating a little different then everyone else which I"m sure will kick in the US soon.

Peter Pan spoiler: An eternal child predator, he comes back thirty years later and abducts Wendy's daughter. How is this any different from the ending of the Twilight series?

Z Nation is a legit good show and everyone should really give it a chance.

Yeah it's The Asylum, but haven't they always been really good at what they set out to do? Z Nation is their normal MO but in tv form, so it actually has good characters that you will like and care about over more than 2 hours, and a plot that doesn't meander and isn't afraid to make major changes. Seriously, it's good.

I've said it once and i'll say it again, Strike Back is the best action show ever made. It is a quality show through and through.

Can we please change the Z Nation title to "Z Nation - The 'Z' is for 'Zombie'"?

e: also, to close up that idiotic Peter Pan discussion, AV Club says the Mr. Darling actor also played Smee.

I kinda wish Constantine had been on CW instead of NBC, because I have no faith in it getting past a first season on NBC whereas they could probably make a pretty good pairing with Supernatural. I guess that would just invite a bunch of "Constantine is a ripoff of Castiel" comments though.

i tried to watch transparent

Jeffrey Tambor is loving incredible and does some of his best acting ever but holy poo poo i hate every single one of the kids, and i know that's partially intentional but jesus christ all of his kids are just the worst people ever

and it's amazing how they're each terrible but in their own unique ways

we got the oldest daughter who's the repressed lesbian stay-at-home trophy wife mom, who is the WASPiest WASP to ever WASP and super entitled and irritating

we got the youngest daughter who's a Girls reject for being too selfish and too much of a uttely useless parasite of a human being, who's also completely self-centered and bothersome

and we got the son, who's the utterly materialistic skeezy music producer who, just for fun, has shades of pedophilia to his character

like this show is basically Why White People are Terrible: the TV show, and even in one episode i wanted to shut it off because of how goddamn reprehensible Jeffrey Tambor's piece of poo poo kids are

The Supernatural guys tried to get a spinoff urban fantasy series onto the CW that was basically Constantine meets The Dresden Files, I wonder if that had anything to do with it.

The kids being terrible people is a pretty huge part of the season. If it frustrated you that much it probably just isn't for you.

I think if Constantine was on CW or AMC, the stories would be much more darker and harder edged than loving NBC.

LET ME EXPLAIN TO YOU WHY YOU ARE WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING
The daughters on Transparent are actually not that bad compared to the son, who is a borderline sociopath. like, holy poo poo, everything is wrong with him, what the gently caress. The older daughter has problems, but the way she almost immediately supports her father's transition humanizes her. also her husband is such a tremendous pisshead that it's kinda hard to blame her for leaving him.
and I suspect all the weird poo poo Gaby Hoffman's character does doesn't bother me so much mostly because Gaby Hoffman is cute.
