'Just Rewards (2)'


Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My mind is not blown wrt to Charlie, like they said. My ass is chapped.

Very X-Files, but a lot more snarky.

I wouldn't say it was snarkier, because XF could get pretty snarky, and outside of Walter this isn't the funniest show (well, other than the XF clip, which had me howling). However, Walter is a hoot and a half--it's very concentrated.

Yeah, Charlie is her devoted but not USTy partner, so making him eevol is grr.

I missed Joshua Jackson. God bless Pacey and god bless Peter Bishop. And I missed wacky druggy Walter and patient AsterixAstrid and even mostly stoic Olivia. Let me not speak of missing Charlie, because this will continue.

You know, after I posted that I started remembering just how snarky XF could be. I think it's a case of me blocking out so much of that show because how it ended up tainted everything retroactively for me (certain stand-alones excepted).

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

They look all cute. I could yank on Tovey's ears before I nibble him all up.

You know, as a guy with big ears, I gotta say...OW!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Eureka: I was totally hoping for the punchline to be "Eat a muffin, whitey."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I really liked Charlie. Rats.

Re: Eureka - Most parents I know, after being overcome with pride that their child had been accepted into Harvard, would then be panic-striken at trying to figure out how to pay for it. Did she get a full scholarship along with that early admission?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

last year, Harvard was offering nearly full rides to people who were low-income and lower-middle class. This is not happening post-October 2008 crash, but they were doing this before then.
