Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

Mal ,'War Stories'


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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

During the scene where Janice was telling Mark about Marcy's brother, The Boy said "She's framing Marcy!" And I just shushed him.

And then, when she chased Marcy down and got all badass on her in the pool, I was cheering because she's such a badass!

But! OH NO JANICE! BE A TRIPLE AGENT!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

So. RPG-playing agent. Was that Seth MacFarlane?

Yeah, I should've googled before I posted. [link]

He was so close to Brian-the-dog!voice once that it made me laugh.

t edit He was in the first or second episode, too.

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

My sis and I both screamed "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" at the screen.

I WAS DOING THE SAME THING. Well, it was more like "Noooo, noooo, nooooo!"

And then, when she chased Marcy down and got all badass on her in the pool, I was cheering because she's such a badass!

She totally is! I don't want her to be evil! Nooooo.

I am reminded, however, that I way more into FF now than I am into V. FF has been really good since it came back.

hwæt

Bah. I think I'm done with FF. What a stupid asspull. Janis getting shot is not a clever way to deflect attention from her—it's a MORONIC way to deflect attention. I'm sure the writers never had any intention of making her the mole when she was shot.

For that matter, I'm not sure the writers had any intention of making her the mole three episodes ago, when she was Inspector Javert with Simon. We're now suddenly supposed to believe that they're in cahoots?

Yeah, it makes no sense, which is why I hope Steph is right about her being a TRIPLE AGENT. Also, her life expectancy is shorter with this alignment.

I'm gonna pretend that she knows, in a gut-level way, that the Hobbit is in cahoots with the people behind the blackout and she is playing him to get more info. In other words, she is still on the side of the good but is not very trusting of anyone, like she said about Marcie. I'm gonna believe, until proven wrong, that she is just very perceptive and cagey.

Oh, yeah, I like that. That she's just playing him, not pretending to be a double agent for an entire enemy group.
