'Objects In Space'


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.

Yeah, "Fringe" seems to co-exist with both "X-Files" and "Lost," which means it's one freaky world.

Also, "Millenium". And "Homicide"/"L&O" (The Belz was playing Munch on TXF, wasn't he?).

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

"Lost" is also set in the X-Files universe? I didn't know that. Makes sense. Insofar as anything makes sense in the X universe.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

(and explain why Krycheck kept coming back from the "dead").

Wait ... that means, in an alternate universe, the Lone Gunmen didn't die an incredibly lame death? YAY!

The unholy alliance of Fox TV shows. All we need now is a reference to a forensic anthropologist at the Jeffersonian.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

In the Flash Forward pilot, a billboard for Oceanic Airlines is quite prominent in a bunch of the shots.

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

But they also have a Lost poster on the side of a bus. So they're doing the same real/not real thing.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Maybe in the Fringe world Lost and X-Files are docudramas.

Their version of Survivor is a bit more intense.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Okay, I know the Stargate hackswriters like to have pretty sparks and explosions on the bridge of their ships whenever there's an enemy attack, but wouldn't the Hammond have the same Asgard weaponry and other upgrades that made the Odyssey capable of fighting off multiple Ori dreadnaughts? Since when can the Lucian Alliance field the kind of firepower that could put that on the ropes?
