Celebrating the silliest and strangest moments from the month in TV

Forget Alien: Covenant – Jennifer Goines creates a far better Alien prequel in 12 Monkeys (3.02). It’s about 122 minutes shorter, for a start.

IMPRESSION OF THE MONTH

In The Flash (3.21), Wally West does an impression of another famous Wallace… he just needs a dog called Gromit.

MEDICAL BREAKTHROUGH OF THE MONTH

Fitz’s attempt at creating a new, high-tech artificial heart in Agents Of SHIELD (4.15) isn’t quite up to Tony Stark standards.

TAKE-OUT OF THE MONTH

CC Jitters takes iced coffee to the next level in The Flash (3.20).

RUBBISH SUPERHERO OF THE MONTH

Not realising there’s already a superhero called Captain Underpants, Lucifer creates his own version in Lucifer (2.16).

FASHION VICTIM OF THE MONTH

A trailer for the SUPERGIRL finale sees Kara borrowing Wonder Woman’s boots. More clunky than kinky.

CRAZY CREDIT OF THE MONTH

Hopefully the bloke credited third down here, at the end of The Leftovers 3.05, wasn’t method acting...

COSPLAY CASUALTY OF THE MONTH

Man’s attempt at Cenobite cosplay goes hideously wrong in iZombie (3.07).

PARTY POOPER OF THE MONTH

After taking out all the balloons, the Nazi moved on to trampling on the trifle in 12 Monkeys (3.01).

UNEXPECTED GEEKERY OF THE MONTH

Frankie Boyle showed off Potter knowledge on HAVE I GOT News For You, calling Theresa May, “Thatcher’s final Horcrux”.
