The Flash - Bloody hell, they're not wasting any time in introducing the villains and backstory - and it's being done right n'all.

Arrow - Hinting at things to come further on, also introducing DC backstory in a cool way. People who are third rate and story filling in the comics are given real life on TV when handled correctly.

SHIELD - Another good episode; if I had to guess, what you saw here will eventually tie into where the Marvel movie universe is heading broadly speaking.

Gotham - Same as ever. Thinks it's sh1t hot, but it's mostly just sh1t. Keeps retreading the same ground over and over again. Things that could have been dealt with over two episodes at most are still being dragged out. The only thing that stopped this being the final episode for me was they finally gave Bruce something to chew on. Everybody else is being forced to lay it on with a trowel :evil:

SOA - Hell of a cliffhanger!

Grimm - Great, and still going places.


Two eps behind on Flash and Arrow, but both are impressing for different reasons this season. 3 behind of SHIELD, but really hoping they get their [LIFTED] together quickly, after the end of season 1, it feels like this time last year all over again.

SOA, the last 5 seconds of the show is absolutely jaw dropping. Very pleased with how it ended.

**edit** Really felt like ep 10 did everything it needed to do. Just discovered there will be 3 more and can't explain how excited I am!!

SOA's absolutely on fire.

SHIELD is a bit jumbled sometimes - if I had to guess a lot of stuff is dictated to the TV team. It's slightly better than the first season in that way, but some of the episodes don't really flow.

I know that there are fans of the show here, I haven't actually seen any of it at the moment (yes Carolyn, I know).
Luther to get a US remake

The Fall - It's much better than the first series but it's now ridiculously reliant on characters being weird for the sake of the plot. It's also outright laughable when it comes to unnecessary soft porn scenes.

Me neither. I probably should get on to that.

As for SOA, beyond edge of my seat right now. The last ep should hit just as I'm between here and heading back to Italy. Then it's Christmas in the snow. Perfect end to a cracking season of what has got to be the Sopranos / Wire of it's generation.

Gotham - Good fcuk, a decent episode! Someone finally realised they'd better do something with the characters that didn't involve a freak of the week. By virtue of blocking the ham and cheese mains the plot strands were able to be cleaned up, and hopefully we're now getting somewhere. They could actually fix all the damage done to villains previously with a few more episodes like this - tying it together is the key. Some small things need to be forgotten like they never happened though; 'Cat' drinking milk for example :roll:

Oh, and there was a character in this episode who, to my knowledge, leans towards the animated series' genius interpretation :D


The Flash - Still cool, though I'm looking forward to our main guy getting to the point where he's a proper, wise-cracking bad-ass. In the meantime, exposition for background plots is handled really well.


SHIELD - Bloody hell, it's not wasting any time with this episode; so much is put out there with this one.


Arrow - A decent episode (as ever at this point), but felt like one to hang introductions on really. Though I was very pleased to see a character who should tie over nicely with The Flash. EDIT - And a major indication of a leap into sci-fi for one character :D


I've still to catch up with Walking Dead (three episodes by tomorrow!), Grimm, and the latest episode of SOA. Oh, and I'm well behind on Constantine.

Amazon Prime is the only one showing it here, far as I know.
