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.

Art Crawl!!!

Well, isn't all a mess of timey-wimey crossing universes etc? Thus what comes first isn't necessarily what we saw in the order we saw it. . . I think.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

How did Henry get the wedding ring? He would've returned from 1947 without one.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

She handed it "back" to him at the end of the time travel ep. He took it off to work on an engine or something.

Ahh, I missed that. Thx.

Eureka: I really don't buy the argument that telling people about the time travel is some big destabilizing problem. Of course, it makes perfect sense from a storytelling pov, but no logical sense at all.

And what exactly do they plan to do with Grant, who has no identity in the present?

I feel bad for Jo, but hey, now she gets to ditch the (fairly unattractive) uniform for civvies, so go her. Not loving Vincent's new look, though.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I assumed Vincent was still dressed up for Founders day.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Yeah, considering what a nice law enforcement uniform does for a good masculine figure, it does the opposite for a good feminine figure. Jo rocked the stylish business look.

And as for questions about Global Dynamics having a head of security before, well, they have always had security, so presumably their security department had a head of some kind (not ruling out a head in a jar, Futurama-style). It is somewhat odd that they have never shown Jack having to communicate with that head of the security department, going instead through Stark or Alison to deal with GD's security people. So anyway, even though the head of security was never on screen, there had to have been one, and to give that job to Jo as a way to keep her security brilliance in Eureka, it makes sense.

I don't know if this was posted here before, but this is extremely cool: BBC's Mythology Engine, demonstrated via DW (posted in March, so I don't think it includes the current season): [link]

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

I really don't buy the argument that telling people about the time travel is some big destabilizing problem.

I'm not sure we have to - we only have to believe that the DoD thinks it is.

Vincent thinking that Carter proposed to Tess is going to bite Carter in the ass. If it doesn't, I'll be disappointed.
