Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

Tara ,'Get It Done'


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.

Tomorrow night.

They had the one hour catch up last night. They restart with a two hour episode tomorrow night. I'm looking forward to it.

Trust my rage

I can see how that show would need a catch-up episode, but my memory of it is that it was already moving at a snail's pace. Seriously people - trust your audience!

“Not dead yet!”

I think the catch up was more because it had been off the air since November, more than the pacing. LOST has done similar, I believe.

I think the catch up was more because it had been off the air since November, more than the pacing. LOST has done similar, I believe.

And they're doing one for V too. Although I just watched the four eps that aired for the first time as they were floating around my DVR, so I'm fresh for the new ones.

x-posted with Natter:

David Tennant alert: anyone who gets HBO Signature, the film Einstein & Eddington will be premiering on March 23, starring David Tennant as astrophysicist Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington and Andy Serkis as Albert Einstein.

Tennant! In period clothes! Being all brainy! Which... okay, not all that different, really, but still. Also, bonus! Jim Broadbent is in the film as well.

Eeek -- don't know how I made a mistake on the timing. I blame DST.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
