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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

There's a nice FF article in the latest EW that has some mild spoilers and a comment relevant to our discussion about the veracity of what's shown in the flash-forwards. I'll whitefont it to be safe: "We're never going to show something that didn't happen. That said, sometimes characters will radically misinterpret what they say, and sometimes we are restricting what you're seeing."

Also, they will explain the kangaroo.

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

That's about what I thought.

The whitefonted bit. Not necessarily the kangaroo.

P-C,

that's helpful to know, thanks for that. I still want to know what happens if people were asleep.

Ha, "Hammer into Anvil" was pretty great. I love when Number Six fucks with Number Two instead of the other way around.

Aaaaand, my brain just went to a "Paul Gross as a Time Lord" place.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Ep 1 of Dreamland, the animated Doctor Who thing, is available now at the BBC iPlayer [link] . (That link might be only available in the UK, but I'm sure it's ahemable if anyone's interested.)

Only available in the UK, but do I really want to watch it?

In a nice convergence, the new series of QI starts on Thursday, and judging by the trailer it looks as if David Tennant will be one of the guests.

Edit: not in the first two episodes, but sometime.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Only available in the UK, but do I really want to watch it?

With dissertation, I don't have time to find out at the moment. I'll find out next week and let you know!

Ooh, that should be much fun.

Very excited for QI.

Although the CBC is a co-producer as well - a Canadian Doctor, perhaps?

Not Paul Gross. CKR!
