Even though I beat you to the last one by about ten minutes (and we still haven't gotten confirmation that it's right), I'll guess that yours is
The Walking Deadwood

I personally rank casting Donal Logue as Harvey Bullock right up there with the X-Men movies casting Patrick Stewart as Professor X. He's absolutely perfect for the role, and I can't wait to see it.

Aw, man.....
What is it about me that makes people want to kill me in the first round? Is it my breath or something?

Yep! All yours, Tara!

Good, 'cause that was the one I was leaning towards. :)

I'm too tired to do research on the second half of B right now, but I'm guessing that A is either
Two and a Half AMen
or
AMen Behaving Badly

I'm with Spruce. "Earl Grey" is the only thing that stood out to me. Dougal, the interpretation (at least my interpretation, and I assume Spruce's as well) is:
Earl Grey -> Tea -> T
Hence, either David T. Cole or TMunz have "T" figuring prominently in their name.
Exactly my thoughts.
Someone come back explain what is happening right now like I'm five.
There are two parts to the game, "Night" and "Day". During "Day", the players vote to eliminate someone from the game because they believe that person's one of the bad guys. To help the vote, the writer usually slips a clue into the story pointing to one of the bad guys. Right now, the line that everyone seems to think is a clue seems to point to either you or TMunz. So it's basically up to you to defend yourself.
Did anyone else find anything that might be a clue?

Don't know about anyone else, but the only thing that strikes me as even remotely clueish is the reference to Earl Grey. Could refer to either TMunz or the illustrious Mr. Cole.

Between working graveyard shifts and my DVD recorder crapping out on my, I've seen a grant total of three episodes of Castle this season (the premiere, the finale, and another episode in the middle the plot of which escapes me at the moment), and while the finale was incredibly awkward and out of place, and didn't mesh at all with the tone of the show I loved, I just fall to my knees and thank the good lord above that it hasn't gotten nearly as bad as Bones. (I just hope I feel the same when I get a chance to catch up.)

This show's definitely at the top of the list of shows I'm looking forward to in the Fall. Especially now that I know it's not airing across from anything I'm currently invested in. (Not since ABC bumped Agents of SHIELD ahead an hour, at any rate.)
Just a few things I really hope they include at some point:
- The Flash Museum. Just 'cause. :)
- The Rogues not only teaming up, but hanging out together when they're not trying to kill Flash. (I always thought that kind of camaraderie was what set Flash's villains apart from the rest.)
- A Mark Hamill cameo in The Trickster's origin story.
- Wally West. He doesn't need to become Kid Flash (at least, not right away....), but I'd still like to see him in the show.
- At least one crossover with Arrow each season.
- Two words: Cosmic. Treadmill.

I'm actually hoping that the Flash Museum turns up somewhere down the road. Not necessarily in the first season, but definitely after he establishes himself.

Okay, but note that Caitlin Snow is specifically a Nu52 character. The only reason we're even doing a "is she or is she not Killer Frost" debate is because that name has been used.
Very good point. I say we table the Killer Frost/Captain Cold discussion until she actually gets freeze powers. (Or the show starts dropping anvils about giving them to her. Whichever comes first.)
if you think about it though, given that she's not pegged to be the romantic interest as far as we know, having a second young female castmate around kind of limits things for her eventual participation. Either she gets awkwardly friend-zoned, and gets less and less to do other than technobabble which Tom Cavanaugh's character can probably handle on his own, or she eventually goes bad. Unless of course the whole purpose of Tom's character is to eventually kick the bucket--something that's certainly got to seem pretty possible given what often happens to "mentor" characters in comics.
Where is it written that the female assistant/friend/ally has to have an unrequited crush on the hero? Why can't a guy and a gal on a show just be friends and hang out together without romantic feelings tying into it? I mean, you didn't see Janet pining for Jack on Three's Company, or Carla making googly eyes at Sam on Cheers, and those shows did okay for themselves. (Or, if you want a more genre example, how about Councellor Troi and Captain Picard? Or Uhura and Kirk in the original Trek?) I say the producers should just establish a platonic friendship between them, and leave it at that.

I actually meant the original version. I haven't read much of the Nu52 crap.Given that this stuff is only a year or two old, from DC's goofy universe reboot, it's probably not that big a deal changing that though.
It's kinda redundant having two villains with freezing powers, though. I could easily see them calling her Captain Cold instead. Nothing about the title "Captain" says it has to be a dude.

In the comics, Killer Frost was mainly a Firestorm villain. No relation to the Captain.So was Killer Frost a friend turned foe in the comics? Is she somehow related to Captain Cold (who I mainly know from the Superfriends Legion of Doom)? It's seems odd Flash has two "cold" based villains when his powers aren't heat-based.

I will say, Jack Osborne did a better job than a lot of celebrity guests have so far. He really got into character in the "Helping Hands" sketch.

I saw the backdoor pilot a couple of weeks ago. Don't remember what song they used for the establishing shot of Patricia Arquette at the end of the show, but I think it was "I Can See For Miles". Either way, whatever song they used, you can bet it'll be the one they use for the show.

I was going for
A Top Shot At Love With Tila Tequila
, but you're close enough. :)

Oh, baby! I've already got the first-season DVD set, but if Shout's dropping a complete set, I'm all over it. Especially if they keep the music in.

Well, hey, since I've got two...
