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.

2.13 - series finale, airs April 4

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

Unfreaking possible. Homeslice looms, and then some.

And yet Colin's the adorable one? It's like they split Pete into separate entities.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Did anyone watch Reaper this past week? I'm so glad it's back. It wasn't the best episode, but it had some really great moments. I loved the fight over which escaped soul was the scariest.

I saw it and liked it, but I'm definitely getting a bit tired of it (even after the long hiatus) because it seems to be going nowhere (as opposed to Chuck which I think has grown a long ways from the first few episodes - guess I'm with P-C on that one).

Also, though he amused me at first, Sock just gets on my last nerve right now. I thought they were going to do SOMETHING with his character, depth-wise, but he seems to be stuck in permanent Jack Black-wannabe mode.

Ray Wise still rocks the house, though.

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

Here's the BSG Top Ten from last night, in case anyone missed it.

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

I loved the fight over which escaped soul was the scariest.

oh, that was hilarious. It's those little moments that have me still watching the show. Overall, it doesn't seem to be going anywhere, Sam seems to have gotten complacent. They drop the little hints, like is what's her name the devil's daughter, etc. And then they don't go anywhere.

I still like Sock, but it's waning. They need to do something with him. With all of them.

Not to mention the dad secretly ripping the page out of the contract.

Exactly - they need to move forward with those things - sooner rather than later.
