I vote for Alexandra Daddario.

I still refused to believe I’ll ever see Harley Quinn in a movie or on television.[^f3104]
[^f3104]: To be specific, I mean *my* Harley Quinn, not the New-52 version.
I can’t wait for the Agent Carter mini-series.
Interesting. I loved her on *Firefly*, but wasn’t a huge fan of her on *Homeland*.
A complete no-brainer. Everyone seems to love the show.
This book has been on my “to read” list for years. I guess I should finally read it before it becomes a tv series.
Interesting casting choice. I do really like Deborah Ann as an actress, though it will be weird to see her if she ends up going blonde with her hair.
I love that they are developing rich world of superheroes over in the “Arrow-verse.”
> Basically, every episode in the first season will introduce a character that might be a future Joker, each emphasising aspects of the character’s iconography, a card sharp, a flower seller, a clown, or just a guy with a very big grin.
Do you want to hear how I got these scars?[^f2657]
[^f2657]: Of course, I think this is a brilliant move by the people behind *Gotham.* Keeping the Joker’s backstory a mystery is always a good idea.
Speaking of *Frozen*, it looks like Disney has started casting the *Frozen* characters for *Once upon a Time.* I still wonder who they are going to get as Elsa, though.
This is pretty awesome.

Doctor Who Returns on August 23
Clara is back!
I have never seen *Once Upon a Time*, but I heard rumblings today that they that they teased an appearance of Elsa on the finale last night. I managed to find a clip on Youtube (linked), but I imagine that will be pulled before too long.
Though I am not sure this will make me watch the show, I have to Disney credit for bring her to the show so quickly.
*Hellblazer* is a tremendous comic book, but I have real doubts that NBC is going to be able to put together a show that captures what makes that book so great. That said, (1) NBC has done a great job with *Hannibal*, and (2) this trailer is not completely terrible.

NBC Cancels Community
Sigh. I was hoping we would get at least one more season.
I approve of this decision. The more Ichabod, the better.[^f4142]
[^f4142]: Okay, I *may* have a soft spot for Nicole Beharie, too.
> No, no, no. Wrong, wrong, wrongity wrong. The clones cannot be patented. Even if they could be, that does not mean that Dyad owns them or Kira. Oh how wrong this is, let me count the ways.
> In the US it’s possible to patent genetically engineered animals, but it is not possible to patent anything that is “directed to or encompasses a human being.” This was a long-standing Patent Office policy and was codified by the 2011 America Invents Act. Furthermore, the 13th Amendment’s prohibition on slavery would almost certainly mean that even if it were possible to obtain a patent on a genetically engineered human being it would be impossible to enforce such a patent.
As an intellectual property attorney[^fn], the “they patented us!” storyline pulled me out of the show immediately. In fact, I am now a couple of episodes behind because of how wrongly that particular issue was handled.
[^fn]: I am *not* a patent attorney, though I am familiar with the concepts related to patents.
Does this really surprise anyone?
Tell me if you’ve heard this one before:
* Fox has a decent to good Sci-Fi show;
* It airs the episodes out of order;
* Despite all the screw-ups by the network, the show is good; and
* Fox cancels the show after one season.
Do what you want Fox, but you can’t take the sky from me.
> “I want to manage expectations with respect to Harley Quinn,” Guggenheim told Collider in response to a question about using Batman characters now that “Gotham” has begun production. “She was always intended to be an Easter egg. I don’t want people to go in with incorrect expectations and walk away from Episode 16 disappointed. But there is an element to the Easter egg that was not spoiled by the promo, that I think people will find a lot of fun.”
It was a cool cool to hear Tara Strong’s voice on the show. At this point, I *think* I would be okay with the Arrow show runners bringing Harley Quinn to the show. At this point, I think that Harley in a show like Arrow is a lot more likely than her showing up in the new Justice League movie universe.
