Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The second half of the season was a mess. It was a really fun mess, but very clearly written with a "Oh fuck, there's more? Um...has Kim been kidnapped? She has? How many times? Fuck. Okay, has the wife been kidnapped? She has? Um, has she had amnesia? No? AWESOME!" kind of attitude.

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

At least there was no cougar.

Fancy icing gravy.

Ew.

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

My Farscape DVDs arrived! The entire shebang in a compact little package! Except... err, it does not seem to have "The Peacekeeper Wars", which is NOT RIGHT. Harrrumph.

Art Crawl!!!

I know!

Of course, I already have "The Peacekeeper Wars".

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

Yeah, that was annoying. I bought it separately for like eight bucks.

The package is SUPER compact, though. I was impressed.

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

One of the reasons I never got into watching Farscape (and it's too bad, I think I would've loved it if I'd gotten in from the beginning) was that I saw a couple episodes in rerun, and then I saw the last episode, and they DIED. I couldn't go back after that.

Not that having the main character(s) die is necessarily a bad way to end a story, but it was depressing.

I think that the Peacekeeper Wars were actually produced by people other than the people who made the series. Something like that which is probably why they aren't packaged with the series.

I was impressed with how compact the packaging is too.

That's not actually how it ends, you know.

I know, but it was before the Peacekeeper Wars had come out, so as far as I knew, it was.

I keep trying to watch the series through; it's good, I just can't stay focused on it.
