Haven't you killed me enough for one day?

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!

It's really minuscule.

Ha! Nice.

Man, Janis is awesome. If they kill her off, I will punch someone.

Things are getting more intriguing now, for sure. It wasn't surprising that Simon was Suspect Zero, but most everything about, uh, Flosso and his bosses was pretty interesting.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

From that Doctor Who article:

Tonight, after one of the longest handovers in television history, the world finally got a first glimpse of the new Doctor in action

...So did the episode actually air on British TV? I'm confused. I don't see it in any of my usual places, and so far nobody here seems to have seen it, but lo, I am impatient, and if it's already aired, I want to see it!

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

"Caprica" = Fucked. The Hell. Up.

Yes. . . I can't believe that next week is the season finale.

TOO SOON.

Ah, thanks, Tom! I had heard that the episode would show on Easter, hence my confusion. I suppose I can wait another two weeks if I MUST.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

most everything about, uh, Flosso and his bosses was pretty interesting.

I'm curious about the bosses.

And I was surprised that Simon was Suspect Zero, but I think I get surprised easily because I miss a lot of obvious things.

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

They had to retcon away his flashback, so I think it was fair to be surprised.
