'The Train Job'


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.

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

What did you tell him?

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

You're nicer than I am. I have a smile-and-blink and "You know I never tell you shit, right?" response.

BWAH! Did he call you evil to your face, or could you just see it in his eyes?

Oh, they could do a Faction Paradox spin-off! It would even be somewhat appropriate for the American version to be about a rebellious bunch of time-traveling cultists.

Actually, if this is a thing that ever happens, I'll probably pretend that is the premise. But mostly I think that "might try" is a long way from "will."

"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

Who exactly would watch a US reboot of Dr. Who? The British version has been around for almost a half century... I'd think anyone interested in the basic premise would be aware of the still-in-production original and choose to watch that instead.

Trust my rage

I think Matt is on to something. Who would watch American Who anyway? Even American Torchwood sounds wrong...

In an American Torchwood, Jack wouldn't get to flirt with absolutely everyone.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

In an American Torchwood, Jack wouldn't get to flirt with absolutely everyone.

And it just isn't Torchwood without that.

In an American Torchwood, Jack wouldn't get to flirt with absolutely everyone.

Which means snogging the boys would be RIGHT OUT.
