Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Did anyone watch New Amsterdam yesterday? I think I'm still in a bit of shock.

Completely forgot it was on, dammit. Can you say why, since it's been broadcast.

I did. Shocked that the victim died or shocked that he's already kissing his twu wuv?

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

ita, in shock over what a wretched hour of TV that was? The writing, the acting, that silly love scene at the end?

Art Crawl!!!

I did.

Shock about what?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I watched it. I think they thought they were being very progressive, while managing to be very, very clunky and stupid. I was not impressed.

All three L&Os have done shows about honor killings of women by their families.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I liked that they tried to show his change in attitude, how he got progressive. I was worried that I might get hit by the falling anvils, though. And the whole honor killing thing was just random and stupid. but, I suppose that they did it to contrast with the honor of killing the "gentleman"

The problem is, he seems to have progressed from one kind of clueless to another.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Oh yeah. I meant to rant about how stupid and heavy-handed and offensive the episode was and how the show has lost me as a viewer and not even the eye-candy factor (Nicolaj continues to be irritatingly pretty) would keep me on at this point and so forth, and decided I didn't care enough to rant.

::sits with Vonnie::

Hopefully The Baker will be available soon and I can see him and Damian Lewis on the screen at the same time.
